Please, help us to better understand how we can effectively funnel reddit users into Lemmy across all demographics, leveraging the average Lemmings advantages like expertise in automation, ai and bots?

What tactics/strategies do you propose? Can we automate the process? Can we somehow add ai to make it more fashionable?

    Don’t worry about user numbers. Worry about developing niche communities here. With different personalities. That’s the magic to make a garden grow.

      It doesn’t matter how niche, it matters how active we are. I’ve been bored by “hot” for a while since it’s just 1h old trash, and “active” just leads me to day old threads. I want to participate in 4 hour old threads that have a lot of comments and a lot of activity and people still replying.

      Exactly! This isn’t about monetization, so raw numbers don’t matter. As long as a given community has enough active members to promote continued use and provide its members with interesting material, that’s enough.
