Growing my instance (unilem.org)

Im wondering what ways people advertise/grow their lemmy instances. I recently just created mine and would like to put it out there as one of the options. How did you discover your instance and what drew you to it?

Honestly your best method is going to be to make a new thread like once a week, in one of the major Lemmy-focused forums, until your userbase hits a figure you like.

It's going to be more effective than any other method by far, I think, as you're most likely to catch people right at that point where they're thinking "I want to experience a smaller Instance..."

Then they're gonna make an alt there, and if they like it, the alt will become the main.
