My advice to new fediverse projects:
- create a project account to post updates
- prioritize marketing
- tease pre-release updates
- leverage your network to boost posts
- reach out to me or other fedidevs for advice and help
- find your early core user base and give their feedback more precedence
- request feedback
- respond to criticism with a goal of resolution, don't take it personally, they probably want it fixed just as much as you do
- don't let follower counts inflate your ego, we equal -
@dansup thoughts about follower counts: why do we still keep them?
I did some IG this week to promote a new community I'm building up right now and noticed after a day that my follower count dropped. Of course I felt bad specially as it's work from my heart that I was promoting. And very likely it was just 2 bots being closed. But I asked myself why do we keep track on those? Why not round the number up to the next 10s or 50s or so for more peace.
