Meta: How can we grow this community?

posted 8 months ago

The title says it all: How can we grow the Rust community here on Lemmy? Many users fled Reddit or are here for different reasons. But compared to it’s commercial big brother, the Rust community here, feels more or less dead. I would like to discuss ideas, on how we can changes that and make Lemmy the default for Rust related discussions, instead of Reddit.

Yup, “outrage sells” is very much a thing here as it is on the Internet at large. The best we can do imo is to post a lot of the positive stuff as well, and hopefully enough people engage to make it interesting.
