Just making sure I’m in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I’ve started wondering, what’s the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I’ve heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.

A few months ago, there were quite some people urging everyone to actively post and comment, to make the communities more lively and engaging.

I always remind myself to do this… Interesting post but no comments? Just add the first comment and a conversation will start - for me at least, there was always somebody commenting.

Yup. We have to be the content we want to see.

Does that also apply to porn consumers?

I really try to make an effort to contribute. I sometimes still find it a bit uncomfortable - i remember the harsh ways people got called out/downvoted/got incredibly unkind replies on reddit-, but i try to do it anyway, if i feel i have something to contribute/something kind to say/have a question

Got ya. You can’t make people always agree with you. Sometimes your opinion is just unpopular. But it is important to speak with each other in a proper manner. Maybe we learn from each other.

Never go the way of people pleasing. Be kind and you will receive it.

I do this all the time. Even if my comment isn’t substantial it lowers the barrier to entry for others.
