niche community will work?
I’m interested in your ideas and strategies.
additionally not quite related to the topic.
Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to register on BlueSky, or rather, I managed to, but my account was blocked for suspicious activity a second after registration. Idk why.


Wait for the centralised thing to fuck something up (and they will), then say “hey I’ve been using this to get away from all the bullshit of [service name]”
In the mean time, post & comment. The more content & discussion there is, the more attractive it will be to others. If you’ve got a niche hobby you’re passionate about, get a community going or try to grow an existing one if it already exists.
I comment way more on Lemmy than I was doing on Reddit towards the end, partly because the people here are generally good to chat to, but also because I want this place to keep being good so I can continue to keep using it.
Post for sure. If you’re brave enough to make posts absolutely 100% get busy. Check the user MyNameIsAtticus for inspiration. Dudes been making a post every day about whatever hes playing, basically using Lemmy as a diary that talks back.
It sounds like the daftest most pointless self-indulgent bullshit, but I love it.
