    Just keep participating. Other platforms will occasionally explode, people will look here, and if they see activity, many will stay.

    If you look at active user charts for Lemmy, basically every time Reddit explodes, Lemmy picks up permanent users.

      This really is the key.

      The more people comment the less it will feel like we are talking into a void. It feels good to engage with people and not bots

      Seeing that little notification glow brings the warm and fuzzies.

      Yeah just use it as normal and have patience.

      Only reason I’m here is after getting arbitrarily banned from reddit for the 3rd time and refusing to make a new one.
