How do you deal with being the only one posting in a community (aka "shouting into the void")? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I'm not gonna lie, sometimes it feels a bit lonely. I try to post on a few generic communities

Sometimes I can be the only poster for a few weeks. Makes me requestion the relevance of posting at all. I started posting to !pics@lemmy.world recently just because at least my posts are widely seen, and other people post there as well.

I do wonder if going with movies community on an instance that has more broad one already is too much of a handicap

It might be, I just posted on !movies@lemmy.world (not wanting to get another account banned on !moviesandtv@lemm.ee ), we'll see how it goes

I don't think that's much of an issue to be honest, and even if it is, having a "large" audience able to see it from their local feed should outweigh the con.
