A few people have posted in !journaling@sh.itjust.works. So, it’s not just me posting new content anymore, and that’s a huge step in the right direction. Yeah! (edit: and it’s great content, btw ;))
The subscriber count is also slowly growing (we’ve reached 280, I have not noted the base numbers but I would say we’re 50 more subscribers if not more), which is great too.
I still would love to see more activities going on. I mean more comments and new posts non-authored by me. Obviously, that would be easy for me to write more posts but I really don’t want to give people the false impression I ‘own’ the community—I don’t, I try to encourage more activities that’s all. I know Lemmy is much smaller than Reddit; in their s/journaling they have around 2 millions subscribers which is a little more than our grand-total of 282 subscribers ;) but I would say one new post a week or every couple week would be great.
A few days ago, like I announced, I replaced the old banner/icon with new ones to celebrate the beginning of a new year. Beside one person that commented on my first proposal a couple weeks ago (after which I almost completely changed said proposition) there has been no reaction beside very few likes. I even mentioned I kept the old set so I could easily put it back in case they preferred it to the new one. I’m no designer, so maybe it’s just trash and people are too kind to let me know, or they simply don’t care? It’s hard to tell without feedback.

Happy New Year to you, and everyone here :)
Well done!
Don’t worry, it was really horrible people would let you know 😄
