True. Related to that I wish there were more engagement on lemmy. Most of the posts in my stream have zero replies or 1 and it’s the bot. But let’s keep smaller numbers - quality over quantity.

We’re not filtering for quality vs quantity at the moment, more people isn’t going to change anything for the worse there.

True, it’s not at all stage where it’s likely to be a problem. The army of very old persons isn’t at the door just yet ;-)

I feel like I want to contribute, I just haven’t found the right community yet…

Same for me. I started to chit chat a bit here and there just to have some more activity but I miss a community I like to be part of.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
