You're right.
I joined Lemmy two weeks ago, yet, I still spend most of my "Social network time" on Reddit. And the reason is that Reddit has more things to see, more interesting posts to interact with and so on.
I think that we that are already here should "prepare the place" so that others may come. And preparing the place means exactly creating posts and commenting. As simple as that.
I'm going cold turkey on Reddit for exactly this reason. I realised that if I allowed myself to use Reddit if I couldn't find the content I want elsewhere, then I'll never actually leave it.
Instead I'm trying to now use Lemmy to find the communities that I'm interested it, and to make the content that I'd like to see.
Smart. What's interesting about it is that the redditors who have left are pretty salty, so I've been accused of being a content farmer for posting content to m/todayIlearned. I was like, dude, there's no karma for posting links. I'm just doing this to be kind, no karma involved. People have a lot of PTSD from the culture of reddit.
I say keep posting. This is the way.
