How do you deal with being the only one posting in a community (aka "shouting into the void")?

I’m not gonna lie, sometimes it feels a bit lonely. I try to post on a few generic communities

Sometimes I can be the only poster for a few weeks. Makes me requestion the relevance of posting at all. I started posting to !pics@lemmy.world recently just because at least my posts are widely seen, and other people post there as well.

even on Reddit, there are more posts with lots of upvotes and no comments. I’m not sure why that is

Could these be from repost bots?
