I just had my first thread that I came across today, after nearly 2 years here, that was collaboratively funny, creative, diverse and made me remember what lots of talent in a thread can do. Not just anti-establishment/political circle jerking, or a few tech categories that get enough visibility to get participation.
It was a /mildlyinteresting thread about giraffes being more likely to be struck by lightning. It immediately made me feel like I was finallly home again after 2 years and looking forward to more and more growth in Lemmy and the fediverse.
I feel like largely we’re fine for comments. Most posts, even on dead comms, get a good few comments.
