How do you deal with being the only one posting in a community (aka "shouting into the void")? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I'm not gonna lie, sometimes it feels a bit lonely. I try to post on a few generic communities

Sometimes I can be the only poster for a few weeks. Makes me requestion the relevance of posting at all. I started posting to [email protected] recently just because at least my posts are widely seen, and other people post there as well.

You say that, but I recently had a comment deleted and got banned from a community on that instance. I wasn't being a jerk or anything. The mod was power tripping.

Sorry to hear, there are power tripping mods everywhere.

You can always try to escalate to the admins (even though sometimes they don't want to interfere with communities)

As much as it did and does bother me, it's probably not worth the effort. That community probably isn't worth my time.
