Yeah, and this is the part where Fediverser was supposed to help. Not just with the mirrors to help bootstrap the content, but also with the whole part of Community Ambassadors. Sadly, no one got into the ambassador part.

Last season was great. It was only the finale that sucked...

(and, yes, if you want a HIMYM community, just let me know and I can make it on https://metacritics.zone/)

I'm making a poll on Mastodon to see if it's a matter of sample bias.

a large userbase so as to ensure there’s content to enjoy.

That's not a requirement. Yeah, it takes some getting used to the idea that people might have to be the first to "discover" a community in order to have it in the frontpage, but even my modest instance is well connected enough as to not seem empty to newcomers.

Looks like I need to improve the marketing and messaging...

Home page from Communick

See that "grayed out" SIP part? That's what was meant to be my first actual service, but I can not afford to offer SIP until I consistently hit ~$1000/month in revenue.

Yeah, please don't give up. I need more people like you here.

[–] rglullis 2 points 12 hours ago

I'm finding it incredibly ironic. Mine is the only instance that is unashamedly for-profit and access is only for paying customers...

Sorry, it wasn't clear to me. Are you saying that your first association of the name Communick is with "Communism"?

[–] rglullis 2 points 12 hours ago (10 children)

You are the first that makes this association, at least that I know of.

Communick is rooted on "Communication", "nickname" and "unique": because the original idea was that people that sign up to the service get an unique username across all instances...

I really don't get this "if you don't block XYZ, it means you are in favor of them".

My instance does not block any of the big tankies, and yet it has not been a problem.

[–] rglullis 1 points 12 hours ago (12 children)

Well, I've always said that Communick is not meant to be an instance focused on any particular group, so perhaps it could count as "normie" for her?

Oh, wow! I don't think I ever saw them. I'll see if I can find a way to cross-post to the sport-related Lemmy communities that I have.

Still, it would also be nice to be less reliant on bots and to get more people involved in the content creation...
