I posted in a nintendo sublemmy a few days ago. No one had posted there in months. It instantly got 25 upvotes, and commenters are winding down now, but with such a slow sublemmy, it's going to stay on their front page for years.

Then one guy gave me shit for putting my opinion in the title, and not in the message body with some long form essay on the topic. And people upvoted him. Still don't get that one, but if I were easily offended I'd have deleted the post so people wouldn't see him mocking me for years. It would discourage some others from posting in dead communities that have a following. Whereas I'm trying to figure out how to post pictures for my next post.

We should post in one quiet sub each day.

Lemmy has the issue that it's user base is small and click-y. Still better then Reddit though.
