I notice on a lot of mags, there is one or two people posting, and either 0, a handful, or quite a bit of upvotes, but no one is really engaging, most the time there are 0 comments.
I think in order to foster the growth of our community, we must try to engage more with the people generating the content, it's helpful and encouraging for them, and also a positive sign for people who are coming into the fediverse. I post quite a bit, and comments always make me feel like it was worth it!
Also, keep upvoting! Someone responded to your post or comment, and you're just grateful for that or agree with them? Upvote them! Engage! That's all :)
the thing is, a lot of people wont answer or comment in the first place. maybe they think someone else will, but then that ends up not being the case
@euphoria Yeah I do feel like it might just come down to a few people having to possibly go around and put something relevant in someones comments to really get things going.
I like to read other comments on the material and offer my viewpoints to their comments. Like this. But without comments, I have no one to offer a different viewpoint to.
