Sometimes it can be very difficult to create a community and start posting stuff. I'm talking about meme content or comic content, like those in r/polandball, r/funny, etc.
Obviously it's a beginning, and all beginnings can be tough. But lacking creativity is tougher.
Although I appreciate your support, and you're absolutely right. Anything is better than lurking.
The only thing I used reddit for was to lurk, see photos, upvote and read some comments or posts. I was barely active during this couple of years with a new account, after deleting an old one. Sometimes I saw it, and still see it, difficult for me to be active because of karma, some kind of polarization or toxicity, even on safe subreddits.
The good thing is that here, karma is non existent. Yes, you can upvote or downvote posts and comments, but those votes don't go to you as karma, so you're not affected. And that really helps neurodivergent people, as it's my case too (rejection sensitive dysphoria, I think it's called, one comorbidity of ADHD).
So, yes, fuck Reddit, and I'll stay here as long as it lasts.
To be honest, I didn't even know I had ASD until I got my diagnosis for ADHD, which I didn't know I had either. And now that ADHD is, let's say, under some control, my ASD traits are more evident.
EDIT: I was diagnosed 6 months ago, just for clarification, at 35 years old.
Seeing all the Reddit bullshit from the last week, I think the thing I like the most is that we're not part of a centralized big company, which is trying to create a monopolistic web.
I miss some communities here that are present on Reddit. But you're right, here you can feel yourself more free and more engaged. With some time and some effort, this can be very awesome.
