Post screenshots of content on Lemmy to other places in general if you use them. This is the real reason why people post stuff from other sites. Probably around a third to half of posts shared like this are guerilla marketing. It is an advertisement of platform relevance. If you can screenshot stuff here that gains traction on other websites you maximize exposure and make Lemmy de facto relevant as a leading platform worth exploring. It takes time, persistence, and numbers for a person to break out the logic and realize that they should try out that thing they keep seeing. With enough persistence posting screenshots is what drives the big movement. Greentext is a 4chan ad. Xitter ads are everywhere in memes. TikTok ads are in shorts reposted everywhere. Lemmy needs the same to really gain major traction. The Lemmy part is largely irrelevant to the need for original meme quality posts.
