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?

Lurker

Mostly lurker and sometimes participator.

The TAHP 1% of lemmy users post 99% of the content. This is not right, nor is it fair!

Someone make a Unreal Engine lemstance and I'll shit post everyday about blueprints being the future of programming and how nanite still doesn't work with translucent materials

If your home instance allows community creation you could set one up yourself.

Also, if drag-and-drop really was the future of programming we'd all have switched to Scratch years ago. Visual and no/low-code programming has been around almost as long as traditional code-based software development

I used to almost never post on reddit, but on here I have been posting OC content, commenting and I have even created a community (https://lemmy.world/c/cancer)

I don't post a whole lot but I do comment regularly.

Is there a way we can measure this? I’m genuinely curious what the numbers are.

I would have thought there’s a disproportionately larger number of creators here than other sites as I feel like it’s the creators that were more impacted by Reddit’s api changes than the lurkers… but seeing all the “I’m a lurker” comments in this thread makes me question that hypothesis.

I'm part of the 10%.

Upvoting lurker.

lurking intensifies

Commenting counts as creating content right? If so, I'll be glad to continue as a serial commenter and rare poster :')

I tend to lurk mostly, but I've posted here and there when its called for
