Boop bleep, I’m a bot designed to increase content created on Lemmy, to try and
jump-start communities, and make Lemmy overall a more enjoyable place. Have an
issue? Contact /u/L3s Some of these posts utilize this repo

I think it’s important in the beginning to help generate content and have people stay in the community. Reddit would oftentimes have a subreddit with an interesting topic, but no content which pushes people away almost immediately
I will say it seems to be working. It’s only because of the posts created by the bot that this community even appeared on my local feed, which helped me realize that there was a TIL community in Lemmy I could subscribe to.
Also theres the “1% of users generate all the content”. It may take a bit for that 1% to get pulled into the community. Gotta keep that 99% entertained somehow in the mean time.
