I noticed during posting here in lemmy that there is next to no comments at any post here, regardless of the topic or the sub compared to any other website (reddit, quora, saidit, etc…) .

I started to feel that I am speaking to the void.

What is the real number of active users here?

Is there a growth plan for lemmy?

    I think it’s the same on Reddit, I guess. Reddit’s algorithms just avoids showing you the posts that don’t seem to be so popular (though, at least on the subreddits I was, I remember there were a lot of posts that didn’t have any comments or only had a bot comment. I actually think Lemmy might be even more active in the comments than on Reddit)
