Do you check what community you're about to participate in before participating? (strawpoll.com)

I assumed that this was standard behaviour/etiquette, though I'm realizing maybe it's actually not so common, and I want to know if I'm the weird one

If you don't- why not?

Sometimes. The community name can give me some context before I participate, if it’s not already obvious from the title. For example, I try to avoid commenting in ADHD communities because I don’t have ADHD.

But in most cases I don’t care. If I see a post I want to participate in, I participate. Lemmy is too small to be segregated into sub communities. Lemmy itself is the community.

    Fr this is such a weird thing to even care about when there's like 15,000 people using this site. There's not any niche communities bc theres no user base for them but op wants to make sure nobody cross pollinates the fediverse, get over yourself. Make your comm private if you care so much about people interacting with your posts on the internet
