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.

On Facebook, before I stopped, I tried writing well sourced political pieces and no amount of engagement was enough - when there was none it was... Annoying maybe, or disheartening. It made me think about why I was doing it.

I stopped posting on Facebook and I'm slowly moving to my own site and the fediverse.

So I'd say reflect on why you're doing it and hopefully align your actions or expectations with that introspection.

Curious, what is your site? Did you post it somewhere on the Fediverse? In which community?

I haven't yet; moving from a Jekyll based blog to a different stack at the moment. Been doing a lot of digital migrations like to proton and such this past month.

I'll post it when there's enough on there to be proud of or worth showing. Thanks for the curiosity.

What's important is we never stop trying to connect, we keep pushing for meaningful dialogues and educating ourselves and our neighbors.
