    Trying to post quality content when I have time.

    Built a UI with some nice bells and whistles

    Helping other admins when I can.

    Scrolling through the top 20 posts a dozen times a day. You’re welcome!

    Along with trying to add contributive posts here and there, I’m also trying to be more mindful about upvoting. I think most us like to see appreciation and acknowledgement of our post efforts, so a little upvote goes a long way towards encouraging content creation.

    Telling people to stop treating the normies like they’re inferiors.

    Seriously this platform is full of people who think they’re smarter than everyone else and people who take being privacy aware to a point where clearly they’re just making their own lives more difficult

    Contributing content as best I can to a couple communities, browsing /all and joining new communities and trying to be polite.

      I think being polite is going to be pretty critical towards growing this community. Nobody wants to hang out with a bunch of nasty trolls.

    Voting, commenting, sharing content and news articles in relevant communities nearly ever day. Reporting spam. So basically, just actively participating.

    I’m still using reddit (desktop only) until they shut down old.reddit. That’s been my line in the sand ever since the redesign was launched. So whenever possible I do my best to recommend lemmy and/or explain how it works to anyone interested because I think Lemmy would appeal to most redditors. The problem is the average person has it in their head that the fediverse is a lot more complicated than it actually is. Everything can be learned as you go. Which is exactly how I learned the ropes on reddit 12 years ago. But since so many people insist on having their hand held I’ll jump in to help out when I can.

      For Android users, recommend Boost (which just launched). It used to be a Reddit client, then the dev made it for Lemmy. I did try to get into Lemmy without a solid app, but couldn’t do it. Boost changed that for me. Now Lemmy is as smooth as Reddit was. Recommending an app that makes it as easy as Reddit might help for some people like it did me. :)

    Posting about all of my magnet fishing adventures on !magnetfishing@feddit.uk in the hope that people find it interesting and that maybe one day I won’t be the only person making posts there.

    I originally just wanted to join a magnet fishing community, but I found that there wasn’t one so I made one myself and starting posting.

    I try to post relevant content to a few niche subs. It’s slow going atm but Rome wasn’t built in a day. Right now it’s just two obsessed fools posting in turn, in a few months or years, who knows? There might be three of us by then.

      I was thinking about doing this. Can you walk through your process, how you got started, the service you use to host, etc ? Would love to know more!

    Contributing content to the few smaller communities I’m interested in and know more about, mostly from RSS feeds that I am using for my own use.

    Commenting more often than I would have otherwise, especially on discussions about how Lemmy can be improved. The site is still young and has lots of room to improve, so it’s worth helping with that guidance

    For a few particular communities that are split between Reddit and Lemmy, I’m trying to work with a few others to help ease the migration. It won’t happen all at once, and instead it’s better to make the community here useful for that particular topic. Setting up an official parallel community and bringing over some moderators from the other community should go a long way :)
