Dont forget to do your part by telling other people not on lemmy to try it. Its content has improved a lot so ask them to try it again if they didnt find communities they liked before. It will help the continued growth :)

Another hot tip: don't refer to people as "normies."

It's fine for now, works for a large segment of the current population, and there isn't a particularly good alternative. But yes, not calling normies normies to their face is a good idea.

Yes, but "normies" seems too pejorative imo, although I agree there really isn't a good alternative to it.
