I think it'd be reasonable to post ramble on subreddits like r/privacy, r/conspiracy, r/censorship and r/tor which are filled with people sick of censorship. I'd do it myself but I don't have a reddit account and I think r/conspiracy doesn't even allow new accounts to post.

I made a post on reddit in the corresponding subs for the networks this site is available on, such as /r/I2P, /r/yggdrasil and /r/onions, but didn't post to others. I also posted on zerotalk, a zeronet forum and on I2P's "Dancing Elephants" forum, which is just a technology forum on their network.

My account on reddit is pretty new so I didn't want to spam it.

I do of course welcome people sharing the site and hope that they explain why it's unique a bit too.

I came from privacy subreddit. I was actually on a frontend of reddit, teddit. I really love the idea of this forum being able to be accessed through i2p, tor, yggdrasil as well. Can't wait to see rambler taking off.

I found the link from r/privacy as well.

Looking at a web search for how the masses of people found reddit, most stated they heard about it from someone on youtube, and went to go check it out. Maybe look to get more people from sites other than reddit as well.

FWIW I also know early on reddit a lot of bot accounts they used to populate the service and make it feel like more people were there.

Things have defiantly changed on the internet since then but I honestly think the best thing for here is to add the good diverse content people are looking for, It will keep people coming back and recommending it to others.

One way is to get Ramble better represented on the alternative search engines. Yesterday I did an experiment on Google, Duckduckgo, and Startpage. Tried two searches:

ramble

ramble.pw

The second was a sort of 'control', since obviously if someone already knows the full name, he would not need a search engine. On search one, Google came up with every possible answer but the right one. One search two, Google provided the correct link. On search one and search two, Duckduckgo failed to provide the ramble.pw link. On search one, Startpage provided every link but the right one...some were ramble.com, ramble.org, ramblechat, and rambleofficial. On search two, Startpage did list the ramble.pw link.

All three failed the test. Unfortunately I have no idea how to solve this...I can only point out the problem.
