For me, I was a longtime lurker, so I’m trying my best to come out of my shell and actually comment and have discussions. Overall, I like it so far, I just miss some communities and don’t want to run anything myself.

Same here, pretty much always have lurked online. But seeing the tech used and the ideas and values behind this platform, I think this is going to change. I really like what this platform stands for and I hope I will be coming out of my shell to help it.

Yeah, I barely used digg and came onto reddit once it was already a thing, so I haven't seen something in this early of an iteration. It's a little exciting to be a part of it. I'm trying to make myself more active/engaging because I do want this to thrive.
