Can’t we just upvote?
Why does up/downvoting not count as active? Doesn’t make sense.
I wanna give you a meaningless gold. Here, take it 🪙
But, I’m a lurker.
Not anymore. You just made a comment.
Dear lord, they got me out into the light. It burns!! :)
Ok
Here’s my single comment contribution.
I’m doing my part 💪

How is upvoting/downvoting not considered being active? :/
Yeah, for a fair comparison the standard definition of “active user” is just viewing posts. Not sure why Lemmy sets the bar so high. Maybe they don’t care about vanity stats - besides mild curiosity, I couldn’t care less.
Posting or commenting seems more like “contributing users” and posts like this just encourage unhelpful noise.
This is my point exactly
I mean, I’ve had a Reddit account for 13-14 years, maybe even longer, as I was a lurker who bookmarked different subreddits, prior to making an account. In those years, I have commented maybe 5 times in total. So you dont get to tell me what to do, and I certainly won’t be commenting on this post.
This. I never commented on Reddit and will continue to do the same here. No one can change my mind!
Hell yeah, not comment gang represent!
But if I comment then I’ll break my 9 year record of being a lurker on social media!
But it’s scary
That’s what I was lookin’ to see :)
Honestly the only thing that’s holding me back from using Lemmy is that it not having a good app. I truly tried both Jerboa and Connect.
Jerboa for me crashes a lot and Connect doesn’t have a good content separation guides.
But I will be sticking at lemmy for the long run anyway
I’m here… Even if I don’t really understand how to use this platform - yet.
