Quite good, we recently surpassed 600 sub on [email protected] and 900 sub on [email protected]. I can’t but thanks the other amazing mobs and the users!

[email protected] is almost at 700 subscribers, and is the number 4 community on midwest.social by users/month.

Well done @[email protected] with [email protected] !

Honestly not great, though I have mostly lost time and energy to find or make stuff to post that hasn’t been already. [email protected] and [email protected] have had some traction and others posting, but a lot of the obvious content to post has been. I’m the only one to have ever posted to [email protected] and that particular thing has nearly burned me out of a hobby. I made it because the community at LW seems to be permanently parked with no reply from the mods. Definitely shouting into the void there.

Impressive participation from @[email protected] , especially privileging non LW communities

Not great. Sort of lost my will to post after a bunch of experiments over at [email protected]

If I post pure questions in the weekly thread, generally one or two people respond. Political or not, it doesn’t seem to matter.

If I post questions with some opinion added, people respond more frequently to those (even if I do not believe the opinion), but we get scads of aggressive comments and downvotes which buries the thread quickly.

To top that off, if I respond in other threads in Lemmy, I get people digging up the weekly threads (or responses therein) and trying to use those as ammunition against me. It’s super disheartening.
