How do I properly promote a community?
I migrated from Reddit and I created a few community (based on niche subs) that aren't yet on Lemmy. What is the proper way to let people know they exist? I don't intend to spam like people do sometimes on Reddit.
There's a community called "New Communities@lemmy.world", post your community there and you should get some people to join.

People will see your content. Your profile. Your communities.

If you can find something to legitimately cross-post to or from, that's one way for users of a bigger community to see you exist
