It seems like a lot of people don’t post or at least don’t post on smaller communities like [email protected]

    I don’t know y’all, and when people interact, there’s no true community here. I’ll probably not remember most of your names, similar to reddit, digg, slashdot, etc etc…

      That’s actually what I like about these sorts of communities. I recognize a few super posters and a few specific regulars from communities I frequent. (@[email protected] I want you to know that I think about you and you matter <3) But mostly I’m dealing with disembodied ideas and content. It’s a conversation with strangers who meet up to talk about certain subjects. We get little bits of each other in a vacuum. We have to address only that bit we’re given, because we don’t know each other.

      I use other social media for real community. Lemmy is for camaraderie. We meet to do something, not to just be.
