Anywhere you go on Lemmy, it's the same like 40 active users, plus a bunch of silent watchers, plus a constant stream of people passing thru

its true
You're viewing a single thread.
It's true, I told myself I'd post more often but, lurking is a habit.
I's exactly the same as you. Big Lurker. I exhuded much lurk energy.
I think where we differed is i made an active decision to mod a community. And held myself accountable as if i have a responsibilty. Importantly i decided to be an active supporter and user of said community. I branch out a bit now, but my overwhelming set of activity is in the niches.
It seemed possible, Lemmys small enough, and my niches are plenty small enough to not feel overstretched.
As a Lemmy Worlder the perspective must be different though for you. I was talking to /u/Blaze@feddit.org about this a few weeks back, and he said it feels much more like reddit on the large lemmy instances. I imagine that must make it seem overwhelming? unnecessary? (You'd have to tell me), to think about modding communities as an avenue to getting actively involved.

Definitely. By the way, how is your guys delay with Lemmy.world? It is solved?
You know, i's gona say its mostly not been an issue, like i think we're down to a few hours, but then i tried to find the last time the LW lag time was spoken about on the local c/meta and i can't see the discussion i'm thinking of.
So i think we're pretty good now, i don't know i need a Lemmy Worlder to come and comment on something to test it ;)
Still 6 to 8 hours of delay: https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/bdid38k9p0t1cf/federation-health-single-instance-overview?orgId=1&var-instance=lemmy.world&var-remote_instance=aussie.zone
Another reason to move a few other communities out of LW
Wow! This is new! For me, i mean. That'll be useful to keep track of cheers!
Yeah, LW is a little problematic. It'd be interesting to read the LW admins and mods take on this. Whether they feel stretched, or see the issues the smaller instances see, or whether their size and centralised role is what they like.
The only thing i remember from a ways back is the admins have an express mantra of user growth.
I just chatted with someone on the LW staff, things are progressing.
Interesting, so i take from that, they see some issues themselves. Be interesting to see what actions they take with that in mind.
For my own interest just looked on lemmyverse.net.
I knew they had a lot of communities, but at 10,612 communities, phew, who is modding all of that!
Same.
Oftentimes I just can't get into the topic being discussed or I don't have a well thought out opinion, so I'd rather enjoy reading what others think.
I wish there was more content here sometimes, but I'm not allowed to complain until I contribute more myself.
