I see lots of communities with hundreds of subscribers, but no posts. What is with that? If you’re going to register a community, at least help it get going. Post some content regularly, until it becomes self-sustaining. It’s disappointing to open a community with hundreds of subscribers and not a single post.

But not even the community creators themselves seem to post anything sometimes which is really weird. You would think someone creating a community is already a bit familiar with Lemmy and wants to post about stuff they are interested in. I mean that's why they created the community, didn't they?

I haven't posted in my gamer group I made only cause they haven't decided to migrate yet. I'm "saving our spot" by registering now.

I mean that’s understandable if it’s a specific gamer group, but people essentially just title camping is kinda lame. There are some users who created/mod like 5+ communities, clearly related to their interests but not a private group, and not posting a thing in any of them. That said a person can easily just take a more active role there and post all they want
