Comment on If a community keeps posting post will it show up as more active and thus drawing more users? Even if it's one person who posts a lot?

  It depends on the type of community.

  If its only one person but they’re sharing neat photos or articles about a topic, then yes I’ll still subscribe. Some of my favorite communities on here have one or a few dedicated users. Over time more users do begin to post, even if the majority of the content is by one motivated person.

  But it is still the the way to get a community started nonetheless.

  If even the creator of the community doesn’t post anything people don’t even gain the interest in the first place that they might (or ideally might not…) lose later on.

  Depends how engaging that one person is.

  That’s why I try to reply to everyone, even if it’s something simple.
