You post a bit too much. I'm considering unsubscribing, as every second post on my Subscribed feed is coming from here, even though I'm subscribed to ~300 communities.
Also you may burn out quickly if you post all good materials in two weeks. If you post at this frequency, will you have enough things to post for 5 years?
The quality of the posts are mostly good, I like them generally.
I have a folder on one of my old drives full of old images and gifs like these, I saved them like 15 years ago, but I don't want to post them yet, they would get lost in the noise (and I have to find them first...)
My plan was to post less and less once other people start posting more. I will reduce the frequency of posts.
I think I feared the opposite, that people would just leave if there wasn't enough content and that I had to "run the show" for now. I appreciate your honest feedback, thanks.
Edit: Almost forgot, I don't think I will be running out of content anytime soon.
Lemmy/mbin is small, and what would happen if people would leave? No one should care about your fake internet points. Post for your own entertainment, not as a job.
I think long term sustainability is more important than dumping everything at the beginning. I've seen multiple communities where in the first few weeks the content came similarly huge volume, but later the mod and other top posters shot their all rounds, and burnt out, some examples: !cranetrainexcavators@lemmy.world, !augmented_reality@lemmy.world
