Thoughts on features to boost intent for posting more?
Like a karma system of that other forum website.
I currently miss a point system to motivate me that shows people via my profile how much I could help by posting/commenting. There’s no system to create such feedback currently on Lemmy.
Are there statements by the creators of this platform about that?
Currency is not inspiration.
I’d rather have cooperation instead of competition as primary incentive: “If I post quality content, others might want to post quality content as well”
fair take, so you say additional no features at all or could you see something have potential to encourage regular posts?
I just accidentally deleted a long text (Lemmy-UI has bad button placing), but the gist is social problems of the following communities as examples:
- !askhistorians@lemmy.world has little expertise,
- !talesfromtechsupport@lemmy.world has little engagement.
The existing users are afraid to tell stories of their own, which would create positive feedback loop of engagement.
