I’m especially curious to know if you made your own instances or communities. But if not, what other notable things have you done?

E: I guess I forgot to mention what I did, which was make a community and various posts. Considering making a full instance but I’ve never attempted something like that before.

    Created a community and I’m trying to comment and upvote the most possible. Unfortunately, most people don’t do anything.

    I created two communities for things I work on and enjoy, one for BlueMaxima’s Flashpoint, a project I contribute to, and another for Audrey Hepburn.

    I’ve also been posting daily more or less to multiple communities. I gained mod status on one after getting in touch with the person who created it who had been inactive for three years and polished it up with rules, a banner, and linking similar communities in the sidebar.

    Also been trying to get mod status on another community to try and liven it up a bit as well, and am going to try for my local one should a local personality’s request fall through.

    Made various posts to help communities I’m interested in get off the ground, advertised my fave ones on other social media, helped a lot of people out during the influx earlier in the week so hopefully a few less of them bounce off Lemmy due to confusion. Haven’t started any communities because I prefer to try and help build existing ones.

    (I did briefly consider making a craft-focused instance but had a look at the docs and the tech requirements and noped out lol)

    engage with content I like, try to produce some posts on communities that are dear to my heart, showing my critical gf the cute animal pictures and derpy jokes I find here.

    Been commenting and trying to post a little. I did make my own community within the instance that I joined. May make a second one soon.

    I’ve been making at least 20 comments/day. It ain’t much but it’s honest work.

    I was closer to 20 comments per year back on reddit
