How can we boost Lemmy membership? (lemm.ee)

Since my favorite reddit app came to Lemmy I'm really keen on getting more people into the fediverse to pump up the volume of content around here. Are there any initiatives that we can assist to get folks onboard?

I had my wife join, and she likes it, but laments the slow pace of new material in the communities.

Nice, thanks for the link. That link is about the posting side, whereas I was talking only about the viewing side (apparently covered in issue 808), but the posting side is arguably even more important in reducing fragmentation. Just as it's frustrating to group N communities for viewing, it's equally frustrating to post to N communities, and then have to interact with them separately.

    Unfortunately until it's implemented I just can't bring myself to use Lemmy full time. It's too chaotic content wise, but once it's implemented I may fully switch over.

    Eh, if you're mostly just consuming/lurking, it's probably better to use Lemmy by viewing all posts on all communities on all instances, then filtering out the communities you don't like. Gonna be like that until it gets more popular, and importantly, stops becoming less popular.
