Are you doing your part? (lemmy.one)

I see many communities that got started in the last ten days. Sadly, some that I'm most interested in are not that active. Some are not active at all.

What are you doing to help your community? How do you go from lurking to contributing? Spreading the word?

Also, what's for breakfast?

I just joined yesterday. I've always been more of a lurker, but trying to at least comment on stuff now to help get conversations rolling/more interaction. I think knowing that most of the communities are new and trying to gain traction, rather than being years old and just ghost towns gives a bit of hope.

Breakfast for me was leftover pizza

This is the way. Be the participation you want to see in the world.

Also, eggs, sausage, and grits.

Hmm. Love grits. It's the perfect transport medium for all of the butter you put on them. 😀

...and salt! Do NOT forget the salt!

Left over pizza is good breakfast food. My favorite leftovers for breakfast have always been Chinese food though.

And welcome to the federated web. I'm new here myself. I find I've been more active than I ever was on reddit. It feels like more people have good intentions here than on the other platforms.

Ugh leftover Chinese is amazing.

I can definitely see myself being more active here. I also agree it feels like a lot more good intentions here. Obviously there are asshats everywhere, but hopefully that'll be kept in check.
