You know, it's like you're walking through the forest, enjoying its beauty, and then you don't notice how a hungry bear attacks you, even though you were warned about it.
What a shame, when the trap snaps it will be very painful...

A lot of things that appear to take off organically by being good, later turn out to have had a big expensive team running the guerilla marketing behind it. It's pretty much impossible to just make something good and have it be successful on its own merits without someone marketing it.
Ouch ๐ค, yeah I can see that being part of it.
I have refrained from saying you can share porn, music etc with it, or other potentially illegal files, but one part why I did it was so that anyone can have access to anything, like the wikipedia. I also dug down in the legal realm to verify it can be used legally, because your node shares things you have no control over.
/End of rant ๐
So guerilla marketing you say? Hmm. It's a bit the snake biting its tail, if no one uses it, no one speaks of it. Guess I'll continue some raids here on Lemmy... Thanks, and any new advice greatly appreciated!
Cheers
