Itna sannata kyu hai bhai? [Why is it so silent here?]
Arrived here after reading the post on lemmy.ml.
However, the community is not as active as I hoped it would. Not many posts, and most posts have zero comments.
What do you think could drive more engagement here?
My initial thoughts on this.
The community could be more active if the rules and moderation policies are made known.
What are the rules for posting here? Are news articles allowed? Or is it just general articles? What about discussion posts? What topics are allowed for discussion?
For example, I wanted to post about the recent events around casteism in Madhya Pradesh. But I wasn’t sure if it met the policies and rules. Moreover, recent articles are about general topics or listicles, so I ended up dropping the idea.
I was honestly surprised reddit was as popular as it was with us Indians. Lemmy is a quite a bit more complex to set up as you like (even to get working, imo), so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that this isn’t popular. Maybe in the future, who knows? Everyone on my friends list is just going gaga over Threads now.
