Everyone wants to lurk but nobody wants to post - Lemmy.world

Are you promoting them?
Not really, I should start doing that but was hoping that people fleeing reddit would search for them.
Drop some links my dude!

Where would you promote communities for Lemmy? I dont wanna be the annoying poster posting on other communities that have nothing to do with the game my community is about; which is Dark Souls 3

Also, all the dark souls related communities I could find were pretty much dead looking too and I already posted about it in one of them and I think that’s still the most recent post about 3 weeks ago

I'd post them at !newcommunities
New Communities - Lemmy.World

A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion. # Rules The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World [https://mastodon.world/about] rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2. 1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here [https://mastodon.world/about]. >A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rulebreaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage. >B. No illegal content. >C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be. >D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms. >E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here. 2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion. 3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible. # Formatting Please include this following format in your post: [link text](/c/[email protected]) This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won’t You should also include either: [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] or instance.com/c/community [http://instance.com/c/community] # FAQ: Q: Why do I get a 404? A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync. Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that? A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
This bot I hope is everywhere

Just finished work for the week so I’ve posted it on there now

fingers crossed, hopefully I get some positive engagement, thanks :)
