How i accidentally grew on lemon8

I did not know Lemon8 existed until about a few months ago. I made a TikTok long ago and posted a video of my brother getting tased in the army. It blew up with 12M views & I gained 29.2K followers on Tiktok.

However, Tiktok has shadow banned me so now I only get 100-500 views.

Anyway, I started getting notifications that people were following me on Lemon8 about a few months ago 3 YEARS after that video. I decided to download Lemon8 and I had already had 600 followers!

But my engagement on post are only about 17-150 views with little to no likes or comments! I do want to keep posting content on here as it brings me joy. And while I have 700 followers with little engagement I won’t let that discourage me from continuing to build a community on here.

Some things I’ve read to get more followers are:

- post consistently

- post everyday sometimes multiple times a day (I fail to do this sometimes)

- post what YOU enjoy and create a community you want to be a part of

Don’t let following and engagement discourage you! Little wins count too!

If anyone has any suggestions on how to get active followers please drop them in the comments!

& if anyone wants to build a community together please introduce yourself and the content you post about!

Let’s grow together & have an active community!
