I think I need to find communities that were closer to what I subbed on reddit before I post. I mostly liked meme subs and a lot of the main communities aren't fragmented enough yet for me to post memes on specific shoes/movies/gnaew I like yet. But I've been commenting a lot! โ๐พ
It's going to take time. Reddit took many years to develop that level of niche communities. We've got a really nice surge of momentum right now, so it makes it easier to keep commenting when everything is exciting and growing. But when we do have a lull in activity, try to keep that same energy and stay active. I'm also commenting like 10x more than I used to in Reddit.
It's important to enjoy the journey, right now we still don't have many of the communities we were used to on Reddit, but we do have an environment that is way more positive and hopeful than the jaded feeling of Reddit in 2023. I'm trying not to worry about the niche communities too much and just enjoy the things I couldn't do on reddit, like poke my head into a wide variety of groups and be welcomed in by other users who are happy to engage. On reddit people were much more hostile to each other by default. As long as we maintain these positive vibes, the communities will organically grow back over time.
