are you seriously worrying about user influx?
You gotta work to make that happen, and not just rely on really shitty PR to happen to make people move.
Buzz is work, it's why people make it their jobs.
@Mainebot I don't know what to do anymore
Wellllllllll
step 1: look at what's going on. Put out a press release about major version updates and make it sound good. Mail that to people in the press who might be receptive, a bunch of FOSS advocates, etc
Use that to drum up buzz while circulating bad twitter and facebook news.
step 2: PPC ads. Use Facebook to fucking eat twitter, then use google to eat facebook. Align these PPC campaigns with press releases and news stories.
step 3: go to gatherings, talk about it in person.
@Mainebot Can I hire you to do it?
can do more**
Like, you can literally provide direct action that people can take to get on board, and its so streamlined. You can put it in the face of businesses, advocacy groups, fucking advertisers, whomever, and they can play without needing someone on staff who knows a single thing about anythign internet.
@Mainebot Are you on discord? We better take this to IMs
yeah but it'll probably have to wait. I'm at work.
@gargron
Anyways none of this is me saying I can't be hired. I love money. I love it a lot.
