Can’t we just upvote?

But, I'm a lurker.

Plot twist: All of the "bot accounts" were actually a huge influx of Reddit users who were lurking. By removing the accounts / defederating with their instances, we've sent them all back to Reddit, ensuring Reddit can pull through the mass exodus.

How is upvoting/downvoting not considered being active? :/

Ok

I like trains.

But it's scary

Active user now!

I'm doing my part 💪

Here's my single comment contribution.

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.

Ok

But if I comment then I'll break my 9 year record of being a lurker on social media!

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

This is not a strictly commercial network. Do we really need useless comments or posts just to increase some stats numbers? I'd think about quality contents instead.

First comment...it's scary out here

I'm here... Even if I don't really understand how to use this platform - yet.
