I self-hosted an instance a when I got here a few days ago. The server costs me the same whether I use it or not, so I’d like to let as many people sign up as I can. I had a few people sign up already before join-lemmy.org was changed to require 5 monthly active users, but now my instance isn’t shown there because it’s below the limit.

Any idea on how to attract a dozen or so users so that I can show up on the main join-lemmy page again?

    I’m using cloudzy VPS. It’s cheap but realized that smtp ports are blocked today… So gotta look into what to do about that if I want to use this instance beyond a private one. Email would be required for forgot passwords, registrations, etc…
