Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

So my question is:
Find an instance that is about things you like and post things. I enjoy movies, TV shows and Lacrosse. So I post things on those instances. I post anything I want about those things. Sometimes people respond sometimes people don’t.
REMEMBER PEOPLE WANT YOU TO POST THINGS
I always try to respond to all comments, provided the comment is substantive. If if is someone just posting a dismissive comment, than I ignore those.
I will generally reply immediately for a few hours, depending on my availability and then responded less as the post ages. The nice thing about the Lemmy inbox is that it lets you know when new responses are done.
That is entirely up to the reader to define.
See my remember point above
That is so nebulous that it is correct to say there isnt any.
REMEMBER THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS PLACE IS TO POST THINGS
I think you are confusing instances with communities in your first paragraph.
The whole point is to post or interact with posts. It would be very quiet if everyone would only post but never comment. I think will try to create one medium to high effort post instead of a few low effort posts.
..yeah…
