Well to begin with, I suggest adding a description of your community somewhere in that community, so people know what it's about and what to expect of it. if only so visitors know whether they should subscribe or not.

I don't think people mind that you ask for help. Here on !fedigrow@lemm.ee is a great place to ask. You may also want to try !asklemmy@lemmy.world. Just make a post telling people what you have in mind and asking for help or guidance. Ideally you'd also find someone to work along with you. I'd help you myself but I don't know anything about AMAs and my time's full up.

Great advice

I just thought that Ask Me Anything community would attract people to lemmy. People can make requests and its up to the mods or anyone to help get them to come over and have a discussion with their user base.

Edit: probably not what you were looking for, but still

Lemmy devs did AMAs a while back on !announcements@lemmy.ml

For some reason I am banned from lemmy.ml and don't know why. So I can't comment unless its on another instance or community.
