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.

Are you from there? Or do you want to do missionary work for other parts of the world?

Because I would need some more information on the 'target' people. What kind of social media do they use currently in that country? Is Reddit even a thing there or do people there maybe don't even need a good alternative to that? Maybe they like to spend their time on Twitter / Mastodon over there.

I know there are quite some Japanese people on Misskey. And I've seen lots of Spanish and French content on Peertube.

Ah yes. And you absolutely need admins/moderators who speak the language.
