Maybe because we all want this to work out and be a thing.
Lemmy is growing very, very quickly but I still feel like there’s more interaction between actual humans here and not some stupid karma farming bots. I came over here before the Reddit civil war started and there’s been more and more content every day without it feeling contrived. I’m quite fond of Lemmy at this point.
The social anxiety is much less as the crowds are smaller so posting feels like it’s being heard. Feels like I’m actually a part of a conversation
Edit: I forget which account is my main though so my comments are displaced. Which is probably good
I find I’m having the opposite problem with social anxiety. I feel like I’ll be seen here and it’s making it difficult to comment. Though since I just made my account last night and this is my first comment, I guess I’m being active much sooner. I didn’t leave a comment on reddit for months after making an account…
I think you will find that people here, at least with the current population, are pretty understanding, and I, for one, would love to hear your thoughts.
I finally made my way back into the Jerboa app instead of using my mobile browser, only to discover I had messages…Thank you. I’ve been trying to step out of my comfort zone and contribute. Your encouragement helps :)
Hi from another person that feels similar (joins discord server, never engages) you’re not alone
I find that so reassuring, thank you!
I have made more posts since I joined kbin than I have in years of being in Reddit. The conversations here just seem more genuine.
