At this point, we’re beyond the big wave of new users in early- to mid-June with the protests against Reddit’s API policies. (I was one of them!). There was lots of enthusiasm, a bunch of new communities, and lots of posts.

But it seems like a lot of the activity is dying down. How are you (and your communities) doing? How have you been keeping your communities active?

I guess I’ll start. Back on Reddit I was moderating a 150k sub subreddit so I didn’t need to post daily. Now I’m moderating two communities (maybe 1.1k subs total). and most everyone is lurkers. Every few days I try to post, but it’s tough without feedback. Besides upvotes and downvotes, I got no clue what people want. Struggling to build engagement and to get people to post.
