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

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

  • [email protected]
  • [email protected]
  • [email protected]
  • [email protected]
  • [email protected]
  • [email protected]
  • [email protected]

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.

    I imagine there are similar stories for other communities as well which ends up with a bunch of fragmentation.

    We narrowly avoided fragmentation with [email protected] and [email protected]. Some amount of consolidation is definitely a good thing especially since Lemmy’s userbase is still small.

      That was another shitshow, probably the worst I’ve ever seen on Lemmy
