I created my own Lemmy instance for my small town!

I cannot get anyone to use it at all! I tried to post about it on the local Facebook group and I got banned!

To be fair, I created it to take people out of the toxic shit pile, but the page is called "uncensored" which is a little hypocritical if you ask me.

I think people are weary that it's a "scam" somehow. Even though there are hundreds of fake accounts on the FB group and the page owner is an ultra right wing nutjob and allows tons of troll accounts to run wild.

I have now created my own Facebook group in hopes to draw away members, I will then subtly introduce my Lemmy instance to them.
