I wish there was more active participation. I mod one small community with 36 subscribers and only my posts.
Remember the old ~90% lurker / ~9% commenter / ~1% poster ratio. Most communities here haven't yet reached a size where you see a variety of active contributors yet.
I moderate two communities that have now reached >200 subscribers and we're only just seeing people other than mods actively posting stuff.
Old photos in real life? That's a good idea for a community. I went to check it out hoping I'd have something to contribute but unfortunately I don't. One day it will be a lot more active though, I believe it. Just the good ol' ratio of lurkers to active users.
I feel your pain at comedy heaven. One day lol
I'm the same. I'm at https://kbin.social/m/Bestof and I'm moderating nothing for now.
That's how I feel. I've been spearheading !hermitcraft@lemmy.world, and posting every single video.
