I have stolen the idea of posting a weekly thread, as an encouragement for people to participate in the !journaling@sh.itjust.works
What surprises me is that the number of subscribers is constantly growing (330 last time I checked, so more than a hundred people more than when I started posting), but not many are willing to discuss much. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I don’t know what. You’re more than welcome to share your opinion and suggestions ;)
The will to post is there but the amount of journaling I do is zero and will remain so. I would post some of my PKMS stuff there if I did any this week, but right now I have not added anything to that.
I could put effort into contributing to my PKMS specifically to have stuff to post on the Fediverse but I also have things I need to do in my real life.
but not many are willing to discuss much
Probably the 90-9-1 rule at work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%25_rule
Something Like that, indeed.
Also, it could be because many of the longtime subscribers are not there anymore. I mean, the community was completely inactive for a year or so (and even its creator doesn’t seem to be available anymore). So maybe we’re much less than 330 and more like 100. I can’t tell but I would think so.
That could also be it indeed!
!sillydrawingrequests@sopuli.xyz always gets a couple submissions to posts which is nice!
!buyeuropean@feddit.uk is doing ok as well. Haven’t had as much time to look into non-digital products since by now everyone on lemmy knows about the state of digital alternatives.
Keeping !android@lemdro.id active as well
Funny thing is, it has an active moderation and administration team, but a lack of active posters. I hope the staff over there find it in them to get more involved, I feel like it can easily become one of the most active communities on Lemmy.
There were quite a lot of issues lately with the server itself. It already is quite more active than !android@lemmy.world, hopefully it keeps on that trend: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=android&order=active
!privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com is doing great, !fallout@lemmy.world is doing fine, but i feel i’m neglecting !latin@lemm.ee somewhat. Truth is there isn’t much activity there.
Still posting to !pokemon@lemm.ee and from time to time to !imaginary@reddthat.com
I feel I do not have enough series knowledge to ask good interesting questions in !pokemon@lemm.ee at all which sucks because I liked reading discussion about Pokémon back on Reddit.
Exposed through pop-cultural osmosis, then through Pokémon GO, and still have not finished my playthrough of HGSS in which I got really really hooked, decided to put it down, and never picked it back up again because I totally forgot what I was doing and probably need to start over.
But also I do like the series and I figure even a less-knowledgeable enjoyer could put something given Lemmy and its need for engagement… but I also feel bad putting out what feels like low-tier engagement bait questions, the like of which I’d see on anime subreddits that were mostly just images and no discussion at all. But have to start somewhere, and if you do not have deep enough knowledge, it is all I can do if I want to read conversations and not just look at pictures. At least I post better questions on !otomegames@ani.social, although they do not always get engagement. (If it gets flat zero comments I delete for eventual reposting of the question much much later in the hopes people do comment!)

Please don’t. At this point, any engagement is good to have
Still keeping !homeimprovement@lemmy.world and !photography@lemmy.world active with weekly threads
Quite happy with !movies@lemm.ee being more active than !movies@lemmy.world
The bot for !news_summary@lemmy.dbzer0.com went down for 2 days and didn’t have capability to fix it till this morning. Interactions and votes picked up instantly once it was back tho.
Really surprised at how well !keeptrack@lemmy.world caught on.
Makes sense due to the current events
