a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

I lead a mostly boring life. And the interesting parts would invade more privacy more than I care to expose. I'd love to post content. But I know better than to let too much of myself out. I already expose too much as is, but it can be worse. And nothing good comes from that.

Lol same, I don't have any AITA/relationship advice/TIFU stories ready to go. I don't make enough waves to post to most things. I was actually trying to think of questions for asklemmy because it's all a bit dead but I don't want to know anything! XD

Then ask about that! “How do I cultivate a better sense of curiosity?” or even “Ask Lemmy, what should I ask?”

quite a meta way of asking a question don't you think?

[–] miles@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

can you think of a better way of addressing the situation?

"Ask Lemmy, is it ok to ask about what kind of questions I should ask? Sorry if this question breaks any rules or is too political."

I mean...creating stuff takes work. Even commenting is a lot harder than mindlessly scrolling memes. My head hurts now.
