I guess I’m just a boring person, I have nothing really to say or share that is post worthy, but I try to contribute to discussions when I can.
I like your name.
This is a good meme, particularly because of the correct your/you’re usage.
Some people post, some people engage, some people vote.
Two out of three ain’t bad.
Especially when the vast majority just lurk (and even that still helps).
And so you will
Pretty sure reddit had a channel where you could post pictures of your poop. I think you could come up with something.
Not sure that’s a great baseline, really.
Share things you find interesting, you don’t have to be interesting yourself

That many comments really does make a difference. Still, next time you see something cool online consider submitting it? It’s not as bad here as you might think.
What if I don’t look anywhere else online?
then post about your experience or wisdom you’ve gained from here?
Reconsider
Comments are content
Do you only comment in images of some sort?
No, that one just felt appropriate.
Damn …
I didn’t even comment for a long time because of the requirement to use a real email instead of disposable. I didn’t even have a real email on Reddit and I created that account long after it was popular (but before they required real email accounts). Imo Lemmy cracked down on potential fake accounts too soon and it is costing them growth.
Registration, especially requiring legitimate credentials is a huge barrier for many people who would otherwise post.
I’m sorry but I don’t really see it being that much of a hurdle with services like SimpleLogin where you can activate an address, create an account and then deactivate it again. Or am I wrong here?
Lemmy.world’s faq claims they will ban you when they eventually find out you used a service like that.
turns out quantity over quality also ruins a platform
Don’t boo this post! It is the truth!
I am actually quite annoyed at the reddit repost bots, they drown out Lemmy content in favour of Reddit reposts…
Exactly. Lemmy is a social media platform, not an archival service. People come here to talk to people, not bots.
I don’t browse All because of this , but I did sub to simpsonsshitposts and yeah, just that one tends to dominate, even though most of the posts are indeed what it says on the tin, ie stupid worthless crap.
Cool name BTW.
Cow gang: Assemble.
that’s so cheese
Heck yeah buddy!
Also, let’s not forget commenting so it counts as activity.
I’m doing my part! (winks at camera)
This.
But also, don’t just post useless crap like “This.” Or one-liners. Or the most annoying shit ever, which is when people just type out lines from a song, as if they’re singing them in person. Like dude, we know you just googled it and copy-pasted that from Genius.com. Don’t spam me with your bad pun threads either please.
Does commenting count?
Hell yeah it does.
I can co-sign that one!
Although if someone whined about not enough content, they had to comment to do it!
So they’re unknowingly contributing!
People complaining? I feel like this is the perfect amount. I’d go to post something on reddit and see it was posted 12 times since I tried.
And reposted 25 times
Real. I’m such a hypocrite
The fact that lemmy users are as humble as yourself is reason enough to keep this community going.

You can bite my shiny metal ass
Coming up with a fun post is kinda hard
I don’t know… I’m just on the toilet, really.
Taking shitposting to a whole new level.
Masturbating…
Fucking right!? Had a bunch of No Post Lemmy users calling my OC meme shit while it is the most upvoted post on lemmy this month. No matter what you post there are gonna be haters.
In my case, people voted, but I get no feedback so I don’t know how to improve.
Haha I went through a phase where I made OG stuff and got shit on for it. I got a new perspective getting shit on by meme/content gatekeepers even though they never made jack shit. Like film critics
But I have nothing to post except “Nazi bad”. :(
A lot of people will upvote you if you say “tankie bad” as well. Branch out a little. Give it a try!
Fuck tankies. Seriously. I’d say fascist sympathizers and totalitarian apologists can eat shit, but they do that happily already; it’s not an insult to them, they literally love eating shit.
Hey, tankie bad as well.
what’s a tankie?
Typically a communist who apologizes for authoritarian regimes like the Soviet Union or China because they got communist shit done.
In other words, they prefer communism even when it means the abject suffering and/or obliteration of everyone who gets in its way. Which seems to me to completely miss the whole point.
I saw a truck yesterday with a bunch of confederate bumper stickers on it, and fantasized for the rest of the day about how I could vandalize that dumbfuck’s truck and get away with it. I really think there’s a niche needing filled. Does lemmy have an Iron Front community yet?
based
Okay, so let’s say I actually found the time and had the confidence in my own creativity/sense of humor to make a meme or something. What do you prolific people use?
I don’t currently have access to a decent laptop for this purpose, so it would have to be on mobile, and every free image editor app I’ve tried is lousy at making meme images. Maybe I’m missing the obvious ones, but I could definitely use a ‘For Dummies’ tier guide to making OC.
I make all my dumb shit using my phone, pixellab on android does some basic enough stuff to make memes and shit.
found the time
Sharing links costs almost no time. Moet memes and stuff I make I just google x meme generator and there it is. It takes literally under a minute. Save to photo roll
To upload I use Memmy, while I use Voyager to scroll through Lemmy usually. I use memmy for uploading because it offers uploading images to imgur. Since my instance doesnt allow for image upload this is a good solution.
If I want to add text to a random image I just use whatsapp/signal to edit the image and send it to myself.
Don’t stress too much about thinking of a good title, puns are cool but not necessary.
