    Yeah I know what you mean about the “empty” feeling. Lemmy.world site info on the tab has 2.2k users a day and under 6k a week. Those are miniscule numbers compared to almost anywhere on Reddit.

    I too used to post daily here to help generate content but got down voted so badly the thread was deleted, so now I don’t post.

    Edit- so many communities here are virtually dead. Federation may be a solution but it’s a far cry from the user base even a decent sized forum has.

      I hope you keep posting again sometime, shit will get downvoted for stupid reasons, I don’t blame you though I probably would have stopped too because of my shame lol. Even the best poster will have those posts that get hated too.
