is there a search function in Lemmy to search for posts? is it indexed and does it show up in search engine results?
if yes, that might help a lot with getting traffic

MODERATORS
I did start a community for 3d (3dee), dropshipping (dropshipping lol), and chairs (deskchairs) since those were some communities I used on reddit that I didn't see here. Made a general one for 3d since its still small here and spreading the programs out means less visibility and posts on each community imo. Haven't posted yet and neither has anyone else tho.

What iphone apps do yall use? Rnow I'm using loops for the tiktokclond (hoping more creators join and post there) and mlem for lemmy (liking it more than voyager, arctic seems cleaner but I got used to this interface). Does anyone have a good mastadon app they reccomend? I'm using bluesky since getting an okay feed was easier there, not sure if thats the apps fault. I do like an algorithim just not one based on controversy.

I am trying to. I just found about lemmy today.
Can someone recommend me some other stuff?
Recommend Lemmy communities, or other Fediverse alternatives (like Mastodon as a replacement for Twitter, the same way Lemmy replaces Reddit)?
yes and I don't mind you can mention other Fediverse alternatives
I run a few history communities myself
[email protected] to share or admire pieces of the past - swords, armor, jewelry, or pieces of everyday life
[email protected] for photographs of the past (or film)
[email protected] for drawings and the sort of the past
[email protected] for photos of old ruins, if you enjoy seeing such things
And a few history meme communities with them
[email protected] for memes about history of all sorts, no restrictions!
[email protected] for memes about the GLORIOUS ROMAN EMPIRE
[email protected] for posts about the US Civil War and how slaver scum deserved their defeat
More generally, there's:
[email protected] for memes about ADHD and related disorders. A lot of comorbidity there.
[email protected] for anime pics of cool weapons and armor
[email protected] if you have any questions on random bits of history you've been wondering about
[email protected] for the ever-popular video game Baldur's Gate 3
[email protected] for pics of your own dogs or random dogs you've found online. Precious creatures!
[email protected] for the same, but for cats
[email protected] if you like old or obscure firearms
[email protected] for Lord of the Rings memes
[email protected] if you want some wholesome posts to take your mind off things or brighten your day.
[email protected] if you like anime girls in uniform
[email protected] or [email protected] for tongue-in-cheek militaria shitposting
[email protected] for talk about Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Elden Ring, etc
[email protected] for memes by/about/for girls who love girls
[email protected] for memes about tabletop RPGs like Dungeons and Dragons
[email protected] or [email protected] for memes in general (not much difference between the communities, just whichever you prefer - or both)
[email protected] for Warhammer/40K memes or memes about similar tabletop games
[email protected] for random posts that don't go anywhere else. Just put 'rule' in the title - as the 'rule' is that you must post before you leave!
Nice list

Just wanted to pop in and say, I am so glad so many of you are taking this to heart! I am sitting here with a genuine smile on my face, which for reference NEVER happens. Thank you everyone!
Make a nice poster that encourages people to not just lurk, or dig one up if there's an old post. Post it weekly in [email protected]

I got you rosahaj! I'll try to be better this year!
glad to hear it Oofnik!
On one hand yeah! But on the other, I'm not fully sure we want the Reddit chain of comments that add nothing to the conversation?
You aren't entirely wrong, but I feel it could help build an appearance of high activity, which would help attract people. Also; many people wish to contribute but stifle the words before they can come out of their mouth, and I'm hoping a post like this could be the push they needed.
It's a fair call, I think I'll push send more often from now on!
Honestly half the reason I don't post these days is more not wanting to feed LLMs/dox myself further, but that's a whole other can of worms

100%! Been doing it for a year.
Also, I find a nice way to fill my feed is to liberally subscribe to communities on Lemmy. I'm currently subscribed to 133. I set my feed to Subscribed+Scaled and that works incredibly well to show me what I care about. Then when I get bored, I flip to All+TopDay to get what I missed that day.

Hello
press send on that post that you felt wasn't of enough substance to be worth anyone's time.
I feel like you vastly underestimate the amount of subpar shitposts I'm capable of composing (and then thinking better of) in a given day.
But can we still be scenical? Since social media doesn't fulfill a need perse, I was thinking maybe my scenical comments with misspelled words at wrongly advised times would help. It helps me relieve work related stress. Is that how you spell scenical? Scenical, when you cause a scene. No I mean Cynical! Yeah that one!
