I think I’ve made more posts/comments in the last fortnight, than the last year on Reddit.
I’ve been posting interesting articles to nearly half a dozen communities each per day, even if nobody is responding.
I believe it’s worth it to have this activity for those who pass by and see how many people showed up to the party before them.
Any platform that believes it should be their choice whether the user can opt-in to any part of the fediverse, is a big no from me.
