How do I properly promote a community?
I migrated from Reddit and I created a few community (based on niche subs) that aren't yet on Lemmy. What is the proper way to let people know they exist? I don't intend to spam like people do sometimes on Reddit.
There's a community called "New [email protected]", post your community there and you should get some people to join.
![email protected] for a proper link accessible from any instance.
Sheesh it seems to have been taken over by furries.
This is exactly how I found the last few communities I joined. Great resource
Make content. On your communities and on other communities.
People will see your content. Your profile. Your communities.
The community's content will also appear on loca!
Correct.
I will definitely consider sub.rehab since my communities gain a bit more traction! Thanks a lot
Maybe try telling the subreddits you migrated from
Reddit suppress any mention of Lemmy.
I mod a 100k plus sub on Reddit.
Posted about moving to Lemmy.world.
It’s pinned. It got 10 votes.
I have to manually approve anything I post linking to Lemmy on Reddit as well. Annoying
Ugh that's gross
If you can find something to legitimately cross-post to or from, that's one way for users of a bigger community to see you exist
Post, plug (wherever relevant), crosspost.
Here's a demonstration of the second step (nsfw): [email protected]
