I know this is just anecdotal, but I have literally not seen a single mention of Lemmy anywhere online or in the news in the last 3 months, including on Reddit. "Build it and they will come" only gets you so far...

I post on my country sub every week in the self promotion thread.

We also published a news in a well known national open source website.

I agree with you, people have to advocate about it, it's not magical.

I would like to start doing this as well. Feel free to post a template of what you usually say to lure people in. I think more people here would be willing to go on a little misonary run 😉
