Edit: I realise I posed this in the wrong community, so I’m making this a crosspost and promotion for !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com a place to help grow the Fediverse.
Check it out.
When you want to share a image you found on PieFed, don’t download and share the image, just share the PieFed link.
This way the people or person you’re sharing it with might discover PieFed without you pushing it.
It also works great like this https://www.reddit.com/r/AskTheWorld/comments/1md2npo/what_is_the_best_power_outlet_and_why (does not work with old.reddit )
This will also improve SEO, and PieFed etc. might start popping up on search engine results more, and people will start to see and trust the Fediverse more.
If anyone wants to give me shit for using WhatsApp or Reddit, please see Discussion: Do Not Reject Imperfect Allies
Tried doing this, scared my friends by sending them weird links, got blocked a few times.
Modern internet users are such cowards, but will still manage to install a virus.
Your friends blocked you? What links specifically did you share, some look very dodgy but piefed.social looks fine
Mastodon links
- I don’t think PieFed supports this anymore because of bots
- There are many different PieFed domains so SEO won’t really be effective anyway.
- PieFed supports this, literally tested it today.
- Sure the URL’s are distributed, which isn’t as effective as if it were just one url, but it still helps.
