What ways do you know to attract users?

Perhaps there are those here who have been with Lemmy since its inception. It’s interesting to hear your experience in promoting your community or instance.

Would love to hear about more instances and communities! I think that's a big part of it for other parts of the world, reddit has a lot of those as well.

I'd also love to see some automatic translations built into the Fediverse. Something similar to the Firefox local translation would work, or maybe a cached version on the server once it's been requested by someone. There are a lot of cool creators on Mastodon and Pixelfed where I have to copy and paste to see what is being said.
