Are some questions here just to simulate activity?

Sometimes I can't tell whether a question here is genuine and the author is interested in the answers, or whether they just copy-paste something to keep people busy. How am I supposed to approach that?

I'm sorry, I can't. I already do this for other communities. I'm also active in other areas, I contribute to PieFed development... And there's only so much I can do in a day.

That makes sense. I suggest to put that topic on hold for now, and revisit it once we have more than 2 active posters in this community.

I'll think about it.

Sure, good luck with that idea!

I changed my approach and wrote a long post about this issue instead. Or at least as a first thing to gather opinions. Here's the same link for lemmy.zip.
