yes. do what i’ve been doing. tell your irl acquaintances about the fediverse. tell them about the lack of algorithm and the lack of ads. tell them about the lack of billionaires farming you and yours for data.

The main thing is post more. Lack of content is the main reason people don't use Lemmy more, and the only way to fix this is to share/produce more.

Its a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I think even (transparent, community-relevant) bots are a good idea at this point, given that 99% of interests have little to no activity currently. For example, if we had bots that post game update changelogs to their relevant communities, it would at least provide a baseline amount of content and make it easier to discuss for fans of those games.

post, comment, I keep seeing nonfedrrated options pop up because they know ppl are tired of stuff like reddit and are trying to grab ppl

I honestly don’t remember exactly but I think people were complaining about Reddit’s trajectory and someone mentioned lemmy voyager so I download it immediately.

Happy to help.

There's also !fedigrow@lemm.ee about community growing (so more internal than external growth). Happy to discuss there as well.

I have thought about creating a bot to crosspost content from reddit here but I suppose they will quickly block access.
