a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

    Honestly, I wish the lemmy apps were more geared to allow people to lurk rather than having everyone sign up to view content. I’m a lurker who shares posts with people outside of lemmy.

      Which apps are you using? I use Liftoff and have four instances added that I regularly browse, but I’m only logged in to two (because I only have accounts on those two). I haven’t had problems browsing or sharing content on the instances I’m not logged into on this app and the links open in browsers just fine without a login wall for people I share with.

        memmy and mlem

        Initially opening the apps go to a sign in/login page.

        Liftoff isnt on the App Store yet for iOS, so cant test.

          Ahhh, gotcha, I’m on Android and originally started with Jerboa before moving to Liftoff so I haven’t gotten to try those apps yet. Yeah, that is a weird user-experience design and I’d agree they should try to change that, allowing lurking and easy sharing is an overall more pro-user design that respects our choices to try a platform before giving more info to it.
