I don't know what to post

How do I get people to see my community or know if people can find it? I was on Reddit for 2 days starting a community and got banned for NO REASON. I saw this was the closest thing to it so wanted to start here until Reddit (if they ever bother) checks my appeal.

People browse by /new

Spread posts out, and see if people start to engage.

People probably won't know what that thing is, so posts explaining it would probably get more comments, and it would draw in people who know as well

Yeah I’m still in a Reddit headspace where they don’t like explaination posts. I’m trying to figure this website out I’ve looked at the getting started doc and then thought to check this community see if there’s questions and stuff.

The average interaction here is far kinder than on Reddit, but the worst interactions here are also far worse than Reddit too.

Reddit is full of bots - we also have tons of bots here too, but they tend to gravitate towards political news communities and yours likely will not be affected.

So, overall the Threadiverse is better than Reddit, FAR better in some ways, and a bit worse in others (especially we lack niche content). Enjoy!
