Itna sannata kyu hai bhai? [Why is it so silent here?]
Arrived here after reading the post on lemmy.ml.
However, the community is not as active as I hoped it would. Not many posts, and most posts have zero comments.
What do you think could drive more engagement here?
My initial thoughts on this.
The community could be more active if the rules and moderation policies are made known.
What are the rules for posting here? Are news articles allowed? Or is it just general articles? What about discussion posts? What topics are allowed for discussion?
For example, I wanted to post about the recent events around casteism in Madhya Pradesh. But I wasn’t sure if it met the policies and rules. Moreover, recent articles are about general topics or listicles, so I ended up dropping the idea.
I’m an American and I loved lurking Indian subreddits, just fyi. But yeah, I think it’s the same issue that every other non gargantuan subreddit community posts, there’s only so many users, but only so many of that so many will post. And only so many of THAT so many will habitually post to keep the community growing. Just hoping this one takes off so I can continue that past time.
Yep. The 90-9-1 principle or the 1% rule. I am rooting for this and a few other communities to attain critical mass. :-)
