  • Oh, great! I somehow overlooked that community.
    I see that you are mainly uploading images to catbox or using direct links of the source image. Which is fine but on the lemmy website, sometimes thumbnails are missing and some posts cannot be expanded so you have to open link in the new tab. That is the only reason why I was asking that question in my post. But it’s not a big deal.

    What do you think about adding a rule to have Imaginary[something] in the title just so that you could use it as a search query to find specific art, since we don’t have all of those separate, specific communities?

    I was thinking about having a list of possible Imaginary “categories” in the sidebar, and when someone is making a post, they could just pick one that is fitting.

    This is a list from Imaginary network on reddit that I grabbed, that could be potentially used. And you would just pick one subcategory or if you are not sure about specific one, you could put a category instead.

  • They allegedly remove posts/comments about lemmy? And even if they don’t, I feel like it could have the opposite effect. People would see those posts just like ads/promotion/spam. Which would give lemmy a bad rep. Unless something big happens, like some big community switching to lemmy, or someone with a big following promotes lemmy, it will hardly see a big spike in user count.

    The only way is to passively “advertise” it. Maybe add the link to your lemmy account in your reddits about you section, if you are making OC add your lemmy handle there as well…

    And the last way, which is most likely the best way to do it, is to post good content on lemmy, keep communities alive. And people will eventually join.
