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.
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.
It’s true, I told myself I’d post more often but, lurking is a habit.

Definitely. By the way, how is your guys delay with Lemmy.world? It is solved?
Same.
