Time for a new influx. Everyone still on reddit needs to advertise lemmy.

And not join-lemmy.org, that's confusing. Just pick one of the larger servers like lemm.ee or fedia.io and tell people to browse it and click "Sign Up" if they like it.

I'd recommend a smaller community to help spread the load. I originally signed up on .world but they were having some growing pains (And a disgruntled idiot ddosing them) so I moved to .ca which helped tremendously.

I really disagree. For learning lemmy for average people, big instance is best.

There is a point where people who stick around are likely to make a new "real" account on a different smaller server, after they know what they want to browse.

Basically big instances should be like training wheels.

Yeah tbh this is how I did it and I consider myself tEcH sAvVy - still started with .world because I didn't know where else to go.

You need to know the special password for .ca

I'm Canadian anyway, so I have it memorized.

Hello Canadian, I’m maple syrup!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

We may be related, I'm 40% maple.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I see! I’m actually 33% polar bear and 66% maple, we may be not so distant cousins!

I went to iusearchlinux.fyi and came back to .world about a week ago. It seems to be doing very well now.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago

Going to do exactly that soon. Replace all comments and posts.

maybe start posting links from lemmy like what happened with digg (i think? wasn't there for it)
