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 ;)
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.
The will to post is there but the amount of journaling I do is zero and will remain so. I would post some of my PKMS stuff there if I did any this week, but right now I have not added anything to that.
I could put effort into contributing to my PKMS specifically to have stuff to post on the Fediverse but I also have things I need to do in my real life.
Also: if anyone is wondering I’m not sad or anything that I can’t get more people to participate. I’m only mentioning the few participation as an information regarding my attempt to revitalize that community. I will just keep on trying for the time being (to tell you everything, I gave myself at least 6 months before deciding if it’s worth insisting, more likely a whole year as I realize Lemmy is small and that community is so niche).
And if it ends up not working? Well, my attempt will have failed, that’s no big deal and it wont prevent me from keeping journaling on my own and probably to post stuff from time to time ;)
Don’t worry, I know you’re willing to participate and that’s perfectly fine if you can’t.
Don’t worry either about participating into the PKMS community instead as I would love to see more content shared over there too, even though I’m no Mod there. Journaling & actually using a PKMS are two things I consider essential to my creative and intellectual well-being (I would not dare say ‘efficiency’ ;). Tools that are way too often underused when not completely ignored. So, by all means, if you feel like sharing PKMS content I’ll be very happy to read it :)

Probably the 90-9-1 rule at work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%25_rule
Something Like that, indeed.

That could also be it indeed!
