Do you have any ideas on how to attract people from centralized platforms to such as lemmy? (lemmy.world)

niche community will work?

I'm interested in your ideas and strategies.

additionally not quite related to the topic.

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to register on BlueSky, or rather, I managed to, but my account was blocked for suspicious activity a second after registration. Idk why.

The platforms will push them towards us.

But to answer your question, my uneducated guess would be to setup "default instances" so people can join lemmy and check out the place and eventually find a instance that best reflects their values.

Transferable accounts between instances as well. So tired of making new accounts everywhere I go
