How do I get people to see my community or know if people can find it? I was on Reddit for 2 days starting a community and got banned for NO REASON. I saw this was the closest thing to it so wanted to start here until Reddit (if they ever bother) checks my appeal.

Yeah I’m trying not to post a lot. I’ll prob start doing once a couple days or something. I’m used to yt, insta and so forth which is you spam to keep the algorithm working. This is a new level of patience lol.

I think where people have trouble is when they spam every article or video about the topic into the post. If people see a flood of posts coming from somewhere, they might unsubscribe or block it.

Share good quality content when you find it. I think it becomes spam when you are posting a bunch of posts at once, or if it's a bot that's posting junk constantly. A few good quality posts a day, spaced out by a few hours, wouldn't be seen as spam.

You don't have to post that much, that's just what I'd consider the upper limit

I have a small community too, I try to only post two things at a time to not annoy people browsing All then wait 6hrs if there's any else to post that day, which isn't very often with emulation anyways. Takes a long time to grow a community that's not politics, memes, or comics here still.
