NO YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO
...wait, shit, I COMMENTED BUT NOT BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME TO

In about 10 years on Reddit I made probably less than 5 comments and never posted. I think I already have more comments here in the past month, just a much better community and I actually feel like commenting more.
What about votes? Do they count as activity?
is upvote counted?
eh. nice try. I'll stay lurkin'.
There. I commented. I have saved the internet
Doing my part.
Fine Mom, you've guilted me into commenting.
Ok fine
So, now we're begging for low quality content (like this comment)?
I am currently posting or commenting
"active users" is such a vague metric... each platform has its own rules for that, so it's meaningless (not to mention the obvious inflation of commercial ones, so comparison is useless in practice)
transparent data such as "# active posters", "# active commenters", "# active voters", etc makes a lot more sense if we are not thinking commercially (which I'm guessing is the whole point of independent communities such as fediverse). no need to impress anyone and the metrics become readable
I’m a lurker here until I find my people. This is my first comment. Hello, Lemmy!
Also, WefWef is pretty amazing. I hope it goes full native iOS someday.

If I comment from another instance, does it count towards my instance or the instance the post was from?

You can't tell me what to do! You're not my manager!
I like to just browse but whatever. Hi.
Cereal goes before milk
I have been and will continue to. Especially once Baconreader goes dark. This is my new home, reddit account already deleted.
I prefer to lurk
Maybe we're all scared because reddit was full of mean assholes who called us names
It's me, I'm scared :( and why I won't miss reddit
Reddit might be scary, but people here are nice! I haven't posted much yet but I've commented lots. I've gotten lots of replies, and none were negative (only one slightly argumentative one, but only slightly and they were still fairly respectful and not at all mean) and tons of likes.
One of the main reasons I even came here is to escape the toxicity of that site. I genuinely hope those people don't switch.
I am an active user :)
