Trying to post quality content when I have time.
Built a UI with some nice bells and whistles
Helping other admins when I can.
Contributing content as best I can to a couple communities, browsing /all and joining new communities and trying to be polite.
I think being polite is going to be pretty critical towards growing this community. Nobody wants to hang out with a bunch of nasty trolls.
Running my own instance and commenting a lot
Go on… how did you get started?
I mean how else? I just started a virtual private server up (chose hetzner for this), secured it as best I can, setup cloudflare for it to proxy the IP for security through obscurity, and used the lemmy easy deploy script by ubergeek77 on GitHub; If you want a more detailed guide that will take more time
I completely dropped Reddit and now exclusively use Lemmy. I comment a lot, and try to have constructive discussions, and I try to write quality comments that help others.
I helped get the “guess the episode” game going in a Simpsons related community. Wasn’t all me by any means, but I decided to normalize the game a little and it stuck :)
Showing up.
Now where is my participation trophy?
I left mine in the birthing wing of the hospital. Literally everyone was getting one. /s

This is just like work!
Contributing content to the few smaller communities I’m interested in and know more about, mostly from RSS feeds that I am using for my own use.
Commenting more often than I would have otherwise, especially on discussions about how Lemmy can be improved. The site is still young and has lots of room to improve, so it’s worth helping with that guidance
For a few particular communities that are split between Reddit and Lemmy, I’m trying to work with a few others to help ease the migration. It won’t happen all at once, and instead it’s better to make the community here useful for that particular topic. Setting up an official parallel community and bringing over some moderators from the other community should go a long way :)
Along with trying to add contributive posts here and there, I’m also trying to be more mindful about upvoting. I think most us like to see appreciation and acknowledgement of our post efforts, so a little upvote goes a long way towards encouraging content creation.

Along with the occasional comment and vote, I talk about Lemmy with friends and encourage them to join, especially those still suffering with that other site that shall not be named.
Everything
About a fraction of a percent as much as the people giving us unsolicited porn.
So much unsolicited porn.
They do the Lord’s work, they do.
You’re not wrong
I’m posting and commenting more than I did on reddit.
Much needed
