    Time for a new influx. Everyone still on reddit needs to advertise lemmy.

    And not join-lemmy.org, that's confusing. Just pick one of the larger servers like lemm.ee or fedia.io and tell people to browse it and click "Sign Up" if they like it.

      I'd recommend a smaller community to help spread the load. I originally signed up on .world but they were having some growing pains (And a disgruntled idiot ddosing them) so I moved to .ca which helped tremendously.

        I really disagree. For learning lemmy for average people, big instance is best.

        There is a point where people who stick around are likely to make a new "real" account on a different smaller server, after they know what they want to browse.

        Basically big instances should be like training wheels.

          Yeah tbh this is how I did it and I consider myself tEcH sAvVy - still started with .world because I didn't know where else to go.
