I'm asking as a kind of 'missionary' from lemmynsfw.com as we're starting out and already have a pretty solid foundation for a porn-centered instance. |

So we're trying to get enough people there that we can have less confusion around where that kind of content should go in the federation.

Let me know any ideas and thank for your help! All are welcome! take a look at our wares: https://lemmynsfw.com/communities

I wouldn't worry too much, nsfw tends to attract users without any need for promotion

If you build it, they will come.

Give it a little bit.

Especially true when the name of the instance in question is exactly what people are going to be punching into a search. They got in on the ground floor, they'll be just fine.

Yes! Take away porn from reddit and it will die faster than any blackout can do :D

p.s. sorry I don't have any advice for you, just happy seeing communities of every kind migrating to greener pastures :D
