Random sort? How do you do that?

Yeah discovery is kinda terrible. Luckily there's tools like https://lemmyverse.net/communities and https://lemmyverse.net/kbin/magazines, but something like that definitely needs to be built into Lemmy itself.

To get the community started you can put it on !newcommunities@lemmy.world, sub.rehab if there's a counterpart on reddit, and maybe advertise it in any relevant places. After you get just one subscriber from an instance everyone there will be able to see it in search and the all tab.

For the community to show up on an instance, it needs to have been viewed by at least one person from that instance. (You need to be logged in for this to count).

I went to https://lemmy.one/c/the_kids_in_the_hall@lemmy.ca with my alt on that instance. Now you should be able to see it from there, even if you aren't logged in.

Also, I think for posts to be federated properly there needs to be at least one subscriber from the instance (just visiting isn't enough). I'm not sure about that tho.

I think copying Mastodon would be the best for this. You can mark the post as sensitive (nsfw), which blurs the images. You can also add a content warning that can be used for anything (nsfw, nsfl, spoilers, etc).

And then use tags separately for categorizing posts.

On reddit? Vote % is fuzzed a little to prevent spambots or something.

On lemmy I haven't noticed that

They changed it to soccer ball lmao

Or Cromite, a fork of Bromite that's kept up to date and has more features.

You can always upload the images externally and then link it.

catbox.moe seems to be the best right now, really simple to use and up to 200MB.

I see you uploaded one of your images to ImgBB, but it shows as a link instead of an image. To format it properly next time, you can select 'BBCode full linked' and copy the link it shows:

Yeah it's kinda weird that from mastodon it boosts all the comments instead of just the posts. You can tap into the posts to see the comments anyways, can't you?
