Commenting in Reddit felt very claustrophobic in a way. And saturated. Kind of sad, also, if you were some days late to some nice topic, and get buried under thousands and thousands of comments made prior yours, and have zero interactions at that point from anyone, even if you asked a very relevant question or whatever.
But I suspect Lemmy will get to that point too. Right now, though, it’s light enough to actually warrant wasting energy writing anything as a response to anything.
Part of the reason you got no interaction is half your comments were shadowbanned by automod because it contained a random word and you had no idea. Most mods keep their automod config private so you don’t know which benign words are banned. For example, I found out the word “snowflake” was banned in a specific subreddit where literal snow was frequently part of the discussion. I had a browser plugin called reveddit-realtime that would tell you when comments got shadow banned.
Nice overall but still a bit silent here and there.
But I actually have more motivation to interact here than I ever had on Reddit.

Reddit is a farce.
With it being a little quieter it’s so much more calmer feeling
