RE: Funny is here!
I wouldn't worry too much about getting more followers either. Your posts will naturally end up in the trending and hot categories, and then more and more people will see them. The system works very well to make more highly valued content go to the top of the stack of things for everyone to see. There are tons of liberty lovers, Liberty Professionals as I like to call us, here too. Many of them are whales also, and the founders of this place are, at least in a majority of ways, on our side as well. They are in the fight to tear down control systems--regardless of what type.
I definitely gotta do more research on how this works. Cause I'm so used to getting lots of laughs simply because of the amount of followers we have on Facebook.
You are saying the people getting to see the content is not due to how many followers one has?
Nope. No one has to follow you if your post ends up in the "trending new hot promoted" list to the top left. See the other reply I posted too. You can easily share your memes in trending popular posts by other people as long as they are appropriate for the post's conversation. You'll gain a lot of positive exposure that way.
Okay... That's beginning to make some new sense I was missing. So the goal here is to make it on trending new or hot... And promoted? So I can promote my own post?
I never look in promoted. You won't need that service. Some users pay to have their posts promoted. I figure if someone has to pay to promote their content, I already have no desire to look at it. :)
Cause I noticed, we don't have the equivalent to Facebook's news feed... So where do we go to see what's happening?
I guess trending, or hot? And new obviously... But one can get on new by simply posting a lot?
New is everything. You can click a category on the left from the list then also click new, trending, etc. to get a listing of only, for example, "trending introduceyourself" posts. The feed for your account won't help you much, but it is there. I don't have that many followers or followed, and my feed is practically useless already. It's just too much to efficiently look through.
Trending and hot will probably be the two areas you'll want to be searching through the most.
I found your post for example by going to "introduceyourself" and "new" together. I try to go through it daily to look for promising new accounts to help them out.
Oh wow, that's actually a lot better than Facebook's news feed since it gives more options when your news feed is dead.
I'm really thankful for answering my questions brother. I realize it's still gonna take me some time to get used to it. I just clicked on trending and found something that interests me that has nothing to do with anything else.
I see this becoming my main go to. But definitely gotta go through all the kinks, thank you for helping and showing me how much there is to this format. I'll follow you now. There's no "friend" option here, right? lol
One last question though... How do we get our own feed? For example if I only want to see what the people I'm following are posting?
Thank you for the follow and you're very welcome. Nope, no friend option, but following someone is how to do it here.
It's always a pleasure to meet a new friend of liberty, a fellow Liberty Professional, and then even better to help them out!
To get to your specific feed, click in the top right under your profile imagine picture. The top option above "blog" will be your personal feed.
You know what? You've answered so many of my questions... Go do something else bud. I'll figure it out after I go through all the stuff you've showed me. Thank you again. You've definitely showed me things I was not aware of.
