I know a lot of lurkers like me out there are browsing, but there’s quite a bit of engagement capitol on the federated instances. If you find an interesting topic and the right community, you get a lot of feedback. There’s not much hate being thrown out there either.
This is why I stopped engaging on Reddit.
I was covering my ass more there than at work. Everything needed a disclaimer.
Yes! It seemed like there was always someone trying to prove how wrong you are or how much more right they are no matter the topic. I’m trying to break myself out of the lurking habit and engage more here.
