I post on my country sub every week in the self promotion thread.
We also published a news in a well known national open source website.
I agree with you, people have to advocate about it, it's not magical.
It's also important to note that 0.19 has been a long time coming. I think part of the reticence to engage in full on Lemmy evangelism is that people recognize that the platform still needs work. Once everything starts working more smoothly and moderation tools get some upgrades, it'll become a lot easier to recommend Lemmy to the average person.
Definitely a good point too
I would like to start doing this as well. Feel free to post a template of what you usually say to lure people in. I think more people here would be willing to go on a little misonary run 😉
I'll have to translate it, I might do it later today, I'll keep you posted
