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?

Does commenting count as creating content? I always thought of the posts as the content, but maybe I’m thinking about it wrong
I think commenting is content. Not to the same caliber or scale as a well done post, but a great post isn't a great post without good comments
Previously on Reddit, I would read posts for the comments but without good posts you won't generate good comments. Even on Lemmy, when I see a post with lots of comments - it's more attractive than a post with two comments. Though now on Lemmy, I feel more encouraged to leave a comment here or there.
