Now it's a matter of sustaining and slow growth. Hopefully. Best thing you can do to see Lemmy succeed is participate: comment, post, doomscroll All+Top Hou ;)
It'll take a while for some of the smaller communities to get critical mass. And that's okay, probably. Critical mass is here for the larger topics already. I'll do my best to help :)
i think the idea of 'lemmy day' on reddit would be a good one. instead of linking to articles, post on lemmy and link to the lemmy post on reddit.
we did similar to digg all those years ago...
the idea has been floated to do this on August 1st..
Just do it every day if you really want to still be active on Reddit.
