Where is it appropriate to promote a new magazine?

Nougat@kbin.social to /kbin meta@kbin.social – 13 points –

I just started one, and it dawned on me that other people should probably know it exists.

There's newcommunities@lemmy.world, but I'm not certain if kbin has one yet. I think all we have is findakbin, which is...technically the opposite of what you're looking for, unless someone has happened to ask about your topic

I'd recommend this one. It's federated, there is no reason to start a kbin specific 'newcommunities' unless the federated one sucks or isn't being used and curated.

I agree with them all being federated and being able to use them all. Since I started on kbin, I've been wanting to find groups on kbin and do follow and interact with other federated groups as well. Some of the Lemmy instances and communities seem to have taken off more. Most of what I see on kbin is Lemmy which is a little sad, but glad we can all "talk" together too.

I think the trick now is to help provide the Lemmy and kbin follow links.

for kbinMeta on kbin: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta
for kbinMeta on Lemmy: https://geddit.social/c/kbinMeta@kbin.social or https://{lemmyinstance}/c/magazinename@kbininstancename

We'll see some prominent communities pop up on kbin soon. Before the reddit blackouts kbin was just a project that /u/ernest was working on with his friends - lemmy was already here and beat kbin to the goal-post on a lot of communities.

There's also wow this exists on the ca Lemmy! I can't seem to copy it over at the moment but if you click into my post history I've posted up mine on several visibility places

Using a familiar name and the right hashtags should be a good start. But while I done that and have a small sub base already, I am the only one making content on m/tes.

Hi, still pretty new to kbin. How and where can I put hashtags for a community?
