a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

I'm primarily a lurker. I've been trying to be better about participating lately because I'd like to help the fediverse grow and be a meaningful online meeting place.

Same! As an introvert it is not easy though.

This is me too! I can be the quiet type even online. I enjoy sitting back and reading the discussion more than participating. Let's see if I can break the habit though.

I'm terrible with stuff like Discord but I have no issue with forums, somehow

Also guilty. I guess the first step was admitting I had a problem. But I’m working on it. One reply at a time.

Musicalcactus is a good name!

You might say it was a sharp choice.
