Surely it's better that Lemmy is mostly found by those curious enough to go searching? The lower the effort required to get onboard, the lower the effort of posts that follow. Currently Lemmy has a bit of a Reddit-2006 vibe and that's far better. Quiet, true, but volume doesn't equal quality and sufficient volume certainly brings the attention of bots and shills.

News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
True but more artists would be involved. I really miss BrookValley and wish she was here posting 🥺
Maybe contact her? Ask if we can mirror her stuff here with her credentials and so on. Win win?
I could ask her to join Blahaj.zone!
Yes! Please do!
See you on blåhaj!

Well... For search algo, who is she and what's her art?
She basically makes really cute comics that are really relatable!
BrookValley we got demand!!!!
Lemmy is no more elite or exclusive than Reddit.
I'm finding it's much smaller volume but the conversations are more genuine with less low effort filler and puns in between. But YMMV...
Try to only get the good ones ;-)
I will try to avoid bringing in the stragglers from r/carnivore, r/conservative, r/canada, r/britishcolumbia.
Is the moderating team for sure. The mods of r/Brasil are also the admins of my lemmy instance and you can find pinned comments promoting lemmy on the subreddit.
That’s so mystifying, why would they do the bidding of Spez and hurt their own community.
Lemmy community > Reddit community
I have blocked /u/safebot, lu/saferbot and /u/safestbot to avoid that problem of being banned on certain subreddits for the arbitrary reason such as posting in the “wrong place”.
/r/Redditalternatives is a good place for that
I’ll try using Morse code
Attract the geeks & nerds! Good plan.
we could use a bit more content
im surprised noone created reddit community scraper that automatically scrapes whatever subreddits and reposts to lemme
There is https://lemmit.online/, the issue is that most of the people block this bot as it blindly mirrors from Reddit, including the reposts and karma farming posts
