I notice on a lot of mags, there is one or two people posting, and either 0, a handful, or quite a bit of upvotes, but no one is really engaging, most the time there are 0 comments.
I think in order to foster the growth of our community, we must try to engage more with the people generating the content, it’s helpful and encouraging for them, and also a positive sign for people who are coming into the fediverse. I post quite a bit, and comments always make me feel like it was worth it!
Also, keep upvoting! Someone responded to your post or comment, and you’re just grateful for that or agree with them? Upvote them! Engage! That’s all :)
im sure @ernest is eventually gonna implement something to prevent going to someone’s page and mass downvoting, like reddit did, it’s been brought up a ton by now
Fixing blocking first would be best, honestly. Blocking right now is a mess. If you block someone, they shouldn’t be able to see or interact with your posts and comments in any way.
