I guess I’m just a boring person, I have nothing really to say or share that is post worthy, but I try to contribute to discussions when I can.

This is a good meme, particularly because of the correct your/you're usage.

[–] pomodoro_longbreak@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago

I like your name.

[–] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Some people post, some people engage, some people vote.

Two out of three ain't bad.

Dude, you have only 56 posts...

Start whining when you have over 500.

Now get back to work, those posts aren't gonna make themselves

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 16 points 10 months ago (2 children)

56 is actually a decent amount of posts imo...

I am actually quite annoyed at the reddit repost bots, they drown out Lemmy content in favour of Reddit reposts....

[–] HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml 8 points 10 months ago

Exactly. Lemmy is a social media platform, not an archival service. People come here to talk to people, not bots.

That many comments really does make a difference. Still, next time you see something cool online consider submitting it? It's not as bad here as you might think.

[–] LeafOnTheWind@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What if I don't look anywhere else online?

turns out quantity over quality also ruins a platform

[–] Algaroth@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Don't boo this post! It is the truth!

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.de 20 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Cool name BTW.

Maybe we could use AI to generate new and original content?

Since that might produce too much content for anybody to read, upvote and engage with, we could cover the user side with AI bots as well.

If we do this right we could completely automate social media. Maybe one day you won't even have to look at your phone because an army of bots is doing it for you.

[–] CowsLookLikeMaps@sh.itjust.works 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Fully automated luxury gay space Lemmy?

posting here is nice cause there's less competition

[–] staindundies@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Also, let’s not forget commenting so it counts as activity.

Real. I'm such a hypocrite

[–] ieightpi@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

The fact that lemmy users are as humble as yourself is reason enough to keep this community going.

People complaining? I feel like this is the perfect amount. I'd go to post something on reddit and see it was posted 12 times since I tried.

Coming up with a fun post is kinda hard

Okay, so let's say I actually found the time and had the confidence in my own creativity/sense of humor to make a meme or something. What do you prolific people use?

I don't currently have access to a decent laptop for this purpose, so it would have to be on mobile, and every free image editor app I've tried is lousy at making meme images. Maybe I'm missing the obvious ones, but I could definitely use a 'For Dummies' tier guide to making OC.
