I’m using my sexual magnetism to draw new users in. The results, so far, have been… underwhelming.
Also I mod a few communities and am helping to save my home instance.
Sexual diamagnetic monopole!
You cannae change the laws of sexual physics.
Hopefully you can reach whelming soon.
I think that’s illegal in most countries.
Making lots of alt accounts to pump up the number of active accounst, I mean, because every instance keeps going to shit
I completely dropped Reddit and now exclusively use Lemmy. I comment a lot, and try to have constructive discussions, and I try to write quality comments that help others.
I host and maintain Lemmy.wtf
Thank you
Voting, commenting, sharing content and news articles in relevant communities nearly ever day. Reporting spam. So basically, just actively participating.
I’m still using reddit (desktop only) until they shut down old.reddit. That’s been my line in the sand ever since the redesign was launched. So whenever possible I do my best to recommend lemmy and/or explain how it works to anyone interested because I think Lemmy would appeal to most redditors. The problem is the average person has it in their head that the fediverse is a lot more complicated than it actually is. Everything can be learned as you go. Which is exactly how I learned the ropes on reddit 12 years ago. But since so many people insist on having their hand held I’ll jump in to help out when I can.
For Android users, recommend Boost (which just launched). It used to be a Reddit client, then the dev made it for Lemmy. I did try to get into Lemmy without a solid app, but couldn’t do it. Boost changed that for me. Now Lemmy is as smooth as Reddit was. Recommending an app that makes it as easy as Reddit might help for some people like it did me. :)
I’ve been working on the [email protected] extension :)
RES initially helped me get into Reddit, so hopefully this helps people get into Lemmy as well
Along with trying to add contributive posts here and there, I’m also trying to be more mindful about upvoting. I think most us like to see appreciation and acknowledgement of our post efforts, so a little upvote goes a long way towards encouraging content creation.
I try to comment and vote as much as I can!
I helped with some Jerboa app development and translations. Other than that commenting, adding thoughtful discussion, posting, voting.
I’m running my own instance dormi.zone dedicated to a niche videogame (Warframe). Currently looking to upgrade it with automated weekly posts and a custom lemmy-ui theme.
Besides that, I’ve done a few small contributions to projects like lemmy-ui and the lemmy-explorer.
Along with the occasional comment and vote, I talk about Lemmy with friends and encourage them to join, especially those still suffering with that other site that shall not be named.
I’m here, I read all the new posts everyday, I tried to find something to contribute. I try to be positive. I usually never use social media, I never contribute, I’m a lifetime lurker. But I think Lemmy is important.
It has not been easy, there is a bunch of unfriendly people here, there’s some good people too. But the unfriendly ones have a lot to say
Thank you for being here.
Running my own instance and commenting a lot
Go on… how did you get started?
I mean how else? I just started a virtual private server up (chose hetzner for this), secured it as best I can, setup cloudflare for it to proxy the IP for security through obscurity, and used the lemmy easy deploy script by ubergeek77 on GitHub; If you want a more detailed guide that will take more time
Finding the top comment and writing “came here to say this”, like a good commenter should.
never
Doing our job, much obligated.
