    Not just number but quality. It was all memes at the start, now actual conversation is happening in more than just a few posts.

      Good point! I’m hoping for some of the more niche communities to start becoming more active. Things are trending in the right direction though.

        They will. My experience community building thus far is that if you can build up one anchor community to the point where people are organically sharing content and commenting, other adjacent communities will start to generate the same sorts of things with smaller subscriber bases because that anchor community is keeping people’s eyes here. Just a question of time.

          Speaking of sharing content, is there a way to crosspost around here yet?

            Yes, when you make a post look at the line where the ‘save post’ button is at the bottom of the entry. There will be two overlapping squares. That’s the crosspost button.

                On Eternity, I have the three dot menu above posts that has ‘Crosspost’ as an option.
