I have stolen the idea of posting a weekly thread, as an encouragement for people to participate in the !journaling@sh.itjust.works
What surprises me is that the number of subscribers is constantly growing (330 last time I checked, so more than a hundred people more than when I started posting), but not many are willing to discuss much. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what. You're more than welcome to share your opinion and suggestions ;)
Probably the 90-9-1 rule at work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%25_rule
Something Like that, indeed.
Also, it could be because many of the longtime subscribers are not there anymore. I mean, the community was completely inactive for a year or so (and even its creator doesn't seem to be available anymore). So maybe we're much less than 330 and more like 100. I can't tell but I would think so.
That could also be it indeed!
