I, like many here, have migrated over from reddit and trying to recreate all the subreddits I've been subscribed to. The ones I miss the most are personal finance and investing. I found this one but there doesn't seem to be much activity here?

I've come to realise that Reddit trained me to simply consume content rather than be an active participant in a community. This makes sense when you realise that they are selling advertising and have a small number of people who generate enough content for others to consume.

Lemmy is meant to be a community, so I'm finding I'm having to step up and actually contribute by way of commenting, posting and modding.

Same here. I’ve been an avid lurker on Reddit for over a decade, but trying to comment and post here so there’s activity.
