I’m the creator of kbin.social/m/bestof. I have been ‘advertising’ the subreddit of it to start getting traction. Despite all my efforts, I’m still the only contributor to my community. How do communities entice their subscribers to post content?

    In general, provide content people want, let people know on appropriate forums, and wait. My subreddit took almost 10 years to get 15k subscribers and the first few it was maybe 5 people myself included that were contributing.

      Shit, I’ve made subs, forgot about the account I made them on, only to come back and find it’d gotten huge. Sometimes I’d stumble across them on other accounts and be like, “Holy shit, I forgot i made this!”
