We’re now past the two-month mark, and I’ve done my level-best to stock up our community with a load of content to be delved into by newcomers and reviewers, both. So far it’s been a labor of love.

As such, I typically spend about 1-3 hours per day investigating future stuff that might make for interesting posts, sorting through things, upgrading art, writing notes, then giving it a shot (i.e. posting) every day, balancing the days I miss by posting twice the next day. Also, I usually post in the early mornings, such that our posts begin in Europe.

That said, I don’t blame anyone in particular for not liking any particular stuff I decide to post on any particular day. That’s just natural.

At the same time-- with 300+ subscribers now, it frankly stings to get a negative reaction like this, upon European artist Brecht Evens’ work. After all, we’re talking about one of the most awarded, modern, most-legit European comics creators doing their thing when it comes to Evens’ work.

So here’s a question–

  1. Can you explain why you don’t like the Evens’ post? Because I’m open to editing / switching things up.

  2. Would you like to post your own material? Because I welcome that.

Me, I’m going to take a break from this sub and think about some things…

EDIT: At the time of posting this, the Brecht Evens’ post had a zero score, with more downvotes than upvotes. This was after a full day+, in which I gave the voting time to adjust itself.

EDIT2: Thank you so much to the positive responders. I’ve read the replies and have commented below.

    Lemmy is having some growth pains. I think there’s a litany of issues that are ultimately harmful to the reducers and are preventing natural user growth.
