So let's try this again. My last post sort of got derailed because I am an idiot and used instance instead of community.

Anyway I am here to see what's working for everyone else. I would like to help grow some of the smaller communities I am apart of and looking for ways to be helpful and interactive without straight up having to make my own video content.

Reddit is where the idea that it's OK if 95% of the userbase doesn't engage comes from.

I don't want those kind of Reddit migrants. An influx of lurkers who finally got fed up of the advertising or whatever are no use to anyone. I want people who will to take advantage of the smaller size, realizing that's their post isn't going to get buried in New.

Right now, there's lots of new communities, and the longevity of nearly every one can be measured in the length of time it takes for its creator to get disillusioned with posting into the void.
