Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

Much of the meme content is in the form of GIF and as fare as I see, Lemmy does not support uploading GIFs. Will this format be supported in the near future?

I think I've been more active on Lemmy in the past five days than I had been on reddit for the past 2 years.

Decentralization of social media is extremely enticing to me, and I really want this community to flourish, so I've been trying to make this into an active space.

The last few days i've honestly just been lurking trying to figure out the UI and all that, really loving it so far but now that i've somewhat figured it out I plan on being more active

Made an account 22 hours ago, been lurking around here and there, finally decided to post my first comment after reading this post. I'd like to get more involved, just trying to find my footing first. Speaking of - what app(s) is everyone using? I'm on Android, and just logged into Jerboa. Decent UI, not a fan of the flashing screen during transitions. Any recommendations on other apps? Thanks.
