a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

    Definitely a lurker. I rarely have anything I want to show off, and I like reading other people’s opinions and content.

      The best thing that any of us can do by far is vote. Even moderately adhering to reddiquette (is there a lemmiquette?) really does improve the community.

      Unfortunately on lemmy your vote history is accessible to any admin of any server in the federation. Really hope that’s changed sometime soon.

        I don’t think disguising votes will ever happen, by nature of the protocol. Everything on Lemmy has to be verifiable. If votes are anonymous, you can have federated servers that run bots just to flood upvotes and you’d have no way to prove that the vote is unique. The transparency is a feature, not a bug.

        Personally I’m a fan. On Reddit, your upvotes were logged as well, but they were only visible to the admins. Here, there’s way more admins. So just be careful when upvoting your unicorn bukake fetishes if you’re embarrassed about it.

      One of the main reasons I never posted on Reddit was that it always seemed like everything I would want to post was already posted. I’ve made one or two posts here already since the communities are so small/new that things haven’t been posted yet.

        This definitely feels like it’s a part of it, 100%. The feeling that you have to force yourself to be unique on Reddit because of how saturated it was.
