Like if i were to use lemmy almost everyday or post in community’s would that annoy people or is it ok? I had a reddit addiction very bad and im trying to replace it with lemmy…
Thoughts?
Post as much as you want.
That is the whole point of the place.
Yeah if you’re happy to post I’m happy to see posts.
You can use lemmy everyday and post everyday if you want to
You can leave your friends behind.
But your friends don’t post and if they don’t post well, they’re no friends of mine.
they were terrible friends. no meme game.
Give me can content!
I don’t think there’s an upper limit as long as you’re posting cool stuff. I’m sure a mod will tell you if you’re pushing it (highly unlikely).
Make sure you don’t go for a walk more than once per week or you might get too healthy.
More seriously, I’ve noticed that my mental health is better on days when I’m not on Lemmy. Browsing and participating on its own is not a problem, but mindlessly scrolling all day when other tasks need to be done is. I have a few tricks that occasionally work.
Leave your phone on the other side of the room when you sleep. You’ll have to get out of bed before picking up the phone, so is easier to not start mindlessly scrolling.
Set an end time for Lemmy and pick a different, more relaxing task at least an hour before going to bed. Social media is not conducive to sleep.
Other than that, I haven’t had any issues with people posting too much content. As long as you’re respectful and willing to change if someone complains, you’ll fit in fine here.
I’m here practically all day, every day. This is my home. Please pick up after yourself and respect my house.
Are you shoes or no shoes, I’m barefoot regardless?
I take a nice nuanced middle ground approach and do one shoe on, one shoe off.
You’re welcome, regardless!
People sometimes get annoyed if its an overwheming amount posted at once, in one place but generally you’re fine. If you want a rough guideline, I’d say to keep it to three posts per community per day, unless its busy enough that you can blend in to the crowd.
That said, unless its against the rules, you can also just ignore the people whining. Even downvotes don’t matter as much here as on Reddit.
If peeps tell you to make an account on hexbear and start posting from there, it’s a sign.
The biggest key is the quality of posting. If you’re posting a fuck ton, but it’s amazing content that fits the community and does well then yeah it’s great. If you’re just reposting memes from other communities or straight up trolling then that shit gets annoying real fast.
Or a continuous stream of super bizarre questions:
Is it strange that I haven’t left the house for two weeks?
My boyfriend won’t sleep with me unless I wear the mermaid costume. Red flag?
Has anyone else noticed that their poop tastes different after a change in diet?
should i be worried about the buzzing sound emanating from the shadows?
That’s not a stupid at all! That’s actually a very important question!
YES! Be VERY careful around the buzzing! That means the ion shields have been activated and if you accidentally step into them, the bugs can enter your brain passage.
I think it depends a lot on the community and what you’re posting.
But in general, if you’re posting good quality, relevant content and not just spamming with every article you come across, engaging with people in the comments, not x-posting things to a bunch of different communities, and of course not being a dick, I don’t think there’s an issue.
I just repost old memes I’ve saved over the years when I have the time and I’m at my PC. Post what you want!
Post history checks out.
I’ve blocked a couple bots that post seemingly every article from specific sites. It’s too bad because some of those articles were worth reading, but it was too much in my home feed, so they’re gone.
I’ve only seen you post once, and I’m already annoyed. /s
There is no real constraint so long as you’re contributing.
You can still annoy people even if you only ever post exactly one time.
I would like more content around here so moar posts please! Lol
Post and comment as much as you’d like. Have fun!
