Hmm i was thinking more along the way of discussing when an app got updated or asking for reccomendation etc.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
I did post some didn't get much engagement
Your account is 8 days old. Perhaps you’re expecting Reddit-like engagement? Unless you’re a mainstream community, you’re going to be hard pressed to get engagement on such a niche topic. IMO, forcing engagement will only have the reverse effect.
Have patience, my friend.
I have multiple accounts check my bio (3 actually ). Also i had another 2 month old acc sadly i had to delete it. But yeah i maybe over expecting.
You can't do anything to encourage others to come here asking for suggestions. Visibility of the community will do that, which means more posts, but the only way I can see that happening organically is if you go out to each app developer that isn't already posting updates here and ask them to do so.
There's not much to do here beyond that, honestly. You can't force engagement on a topic like this. People come, get the info they need, and leave. People that want to keep discussing the apps after they've picked one are a small percentage of users, mainly developers or enthusiasts. Or really picky people like me that are looking for specific things and waiting for an app to meet those needs.
Anything to add about my second question ?
