The fediverse has no algorithm, so new accounts don't get passive reach.
You need to use hashtags so people can find you, and interact with others. Reply, boost, discuss. The more you put in, the more you get back.
Unlike big tech socials, posts here get traffic for months after being posted. Give it time and engage with like minded people, and you'll find it's genuinely healing compared to what you came from.
We wrote a hashtag guide here: https://wiki.goingdark.social/docs/user/hashtags/
You can also follow @hypebot@goingdark.social to get trending posts into your feed.
Boosts appreciated!
Looking for someone to help moderate goingdark.social. Not because we're drowning in reports, but because I don't want to be the only person carrying that responsibility.
Honestly it could go a week or two without a single report. When they do come in, most are obvious spam and take under a minute. The main thing is just being around and reachable, so there's someone else who has eyes on things.
Good fit if you've been active here for a while and care about keeping this corner of the fediverse healthy. Plenty of time to learn the ropes. A good fit is more important than experience.
DM me if that sounds like you.

goingdark.social just got its second donation.
Two in two days. That's something.
Thank you @cyberwitch@goingdark.social for keeping the lights on. It means the world! 🙌
Someone just donated to goingdark.social for the first time.
I'm not gonna lie. running this instance takes work. Infrastructure doesn't maintain itself, storage costs money, and keeping things running smoothly isn't always easy.
This made my whole week. Thank you @lor@goingdark.social, seriously. 🙌
