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?

    You don’t. You merely keep the community from dying by posting your own content periodically and you wait. You can’t control them though, and trying will piss them off.

            So, be aware, you did happen to pick up two of the most critical infrastructure-related subs that can exist on a place like this, they were absolutely vital to get set up. It’s just a necessary service. You should remember though, pretty much nobody else gets that lucky with their communities.

            You are extremely atypical.
