Dont forget to do your part by telling other people not on lemmy to try it. Its content has improved a lot so ask them to try it again if they didnt find communities they liked before. It will help the continued growth :)
I am hesitant to invite everyone since I am overly excited about this platform and I don’t want to sound too fanboy-ey. Also everyone I talk to kinda rolls their eyes when I lightly mention it.
Plus the content just isn’t there to entice the Reddit-lovers yet. Like, my girlfriend loves all things Bravo channel and Lemmy seems to be seriously lacking the behind the scenes Bravo gossip.
It will take a couple years in my experience. I stopped using WhatsApp except for business related transactions and told everyone I use Telegram. People at first didn’t get the app but eventually of they wanted to contact me would install it. And then they started using it with their friends because it’s a better app.
Lemmy nice communities will take time but the model is so much more sustainable.
