Okay, there’s a frustrating backstory that I won’t bore y’all with, but in this case, my Lemmy-mates have suggested that I should share image-content more slowly, rather than do roundups like this.
To explain: I personally hate withholding content when I have a load of some resource to share. I feel like a fraud, an a-hole, a userer, and all that stuff…
Yet I’ve been told repeatedly that it’s better to just (in my words, ‘act like a drone’) drip the content, and yes, it’s not hard to see the logistical point, but… bah.
I guess, end of the day, I always like to include something interesting about my posts, and it would be harder to do that via the “drip” posting method, which… pretty much circles back to why I post the way I do, which is to aim for roundups.
Bah… Baa-Ram-Ewe!
In terms of growing a community, I think it is usually better to ‘drip’ than to to ‘dump’. It gives more chances for a post to hit the top of
/all
, and it keeps the community fresh in the minds of users.That being said, ‘dripping’ requires more work to space out the posts, and I don’t always practice what I preach…
