I'm a writer/animator/YouTuber/content creator.

For a little while now I've been consistently putting only fediverse links in the description of my videos. Every video includes my mastodon and a link to the Lemmy post in my community about the video.

So far I don't think this has had literally any tangible effect in growing Lemmy or Mastodon (my mastodon continues to sit at 0 followers), however, I'm hoping that by continuing to include these links and simply having Lemmy be a presence that people see... That will make people more likely to sign up in the future.

My channel and my content are rather small but hopefully just existing in a space where non-fedi users hang out is enough to get people to accept the fediverse more easily.

To me, this feels like an easy way to grow the fediverse... I don't need to explain what it is or how it works... I just provide a link and it opens how people would expect.

I'd love to hear anyone else's thoughts on this practice or other ways that I could include the fediverse into stuff without actively scaring away people that don't like big words.

For me it's The Rock and Chris Pratt.

Guardians of the Galaxy was great but I just wish he would stop playing starlord in every other role he's in!

I'm not religious personally but TGI Fridays is a very popular after-church spot (according to all of the religious/former religious people I asked). Why are none of them mad about this?

How could they actively support a restaurant so sinful it includes a sin in the title?

I'm looking for recommendations.

Ideally ones with an RSS feed.

Do not give me advice for scammers or scam avoidance. I have no plans to ever improve at anything for any reason.
