How do you deal with being the only one posting in a community (aka "shouting into the void")? (self.fedigrow)

I'm not gonna lie, sometimes it feels a bit lonely. I try to post on a few generic communities

Sometimes I can be the only poster for a few weeks. Makes me requestion the relevance of posting at all. I started posting to !pics@lemmy.world recently just because at least my posts are widely seen, and other people post there as well.

I imagine there are similar stories for other communities as well which ends up with a bunch of fragmentation.

We narrowly avoided fragmentation with !lemmyapps@lemmy.world and !lemmyapps@sh.itjust.works. Some amount of consolidation is definitely a good thing especially since Lemmy's userbase is still small.

That was another shitshow, probably the worst I've ever seen on Lemmy
