I like the setup of this new board, and its rules, look promising (if they'll get enforced regularly)

Limitately within endchan this board may not manage to get enough active posters to self-sustain.
There needs to be more notices about this board from other sites, to give it more visibility.

Coming from 4chan, that place is the opposite of endchan in terms of activity.

4chan has a lot of activity, but also an huge amount of spam, and also malicious diversions from hidden groups.
Where many decent threads are buries within minutes, without getting a chance to develop. For the same reason, the replies themselves are most of the times only oneliners, basically twitter level shallow drivel, aiming for an emotional grab out of extreme outrages, because without outrage, nothing really manages to survive on that board.
It's a setup which doesn't lead to good debates, nor good discussion and insight. Lots of activity, but 99% of it is worthless.

endchan seems to be the extreme opposite, too little activity, almost abandoned.
There being very few people, it's normal for only few boards to manage to build up a decent number of active posters to keep things rolling. Every person has only a limited amount of time to spend online, one person can't follow too many interests, that's just a limitation of time which can't be changed.

Thanks for the heads-up, the thread has been pinned. So far, the only effective way to gather anons for this board is shilling the link on halfchan, sadly all the other altchans are pretty much dead like endchan.

The other chans are sure one of the possibilities as to where to find people interested in this board, but other chans are not the best places among all existing options, I think.
The best places where to find potential new people interested in this board, are the bigger social medias, where there is censorship, ostracism, misdirection, bullying, or general hostility anytime one talks freely about their faith.
Since here on endchan they can find the freedom of expression they are denied elsewhere.
Endchan boards are harder to censor (but really all chan boards are less censorship prone), and so long the rules of the board are upheld, all the hostility and usual attacks, can be contained. (differently to how in most social medias, the hostility and attacks not only are not penalized or reprimanded, but they are almost encouraged)

Though, trying to give visibility to a chan board on mainstream social medias, will almost surely lead to bans, and quick censorship.
So one should be prepared beforehand with trashable accounts, and just rely on that short timeframe of visibility, before the notice is removed or hidden. Even in high traffic pages, it still takes some minutes for moderation to move in to remove submissions.
Obviously public pages are better than private ones, that excludes places like discord or similar closed community sites.

Giving visibility on mainstream sites is sure more high effort, as those systems are designed to don't allow much visibility to normal users, but it may also make a bigger difference.

Just dropping ideas for anyone interested or willing.

An other thing to consider, is the persistence of links, or lifetime of links.

Links (in posts) on most social medias are very shortlived, because they get buried fast, and even more shortlived if the post is on the border or outside the rules since it gets removed.
So the people seeing, and maybe going through the link, are limited to the ones who see the post shotly after it is created, since little after, that post is nowhere to be seen.

While any link which remains always visible (most of the times not inside a post, but in the headers or menus of sites, in the places which can't be buried), may get less people through it at the same time, but it stays effective for much longer, and on the long run it may bring in more people than a short wave from a shortlived post on a popular place.
Though, slow flows of newcomers from stable links are usually not enough to build activity, so it's better to don't rely on a single stable and visible link, but more of them together, even if from different places.


An other obvious thing, is that visibility is important to get new people to visit and have a look in, but visibility is only half of what brings new actives.
The other half is content, what the visitors see, and what interests them enough to remain and add something.

About content, in my experience, it brings more discussion to state something rather than asking something.
It doesn't matter if the statement is perfectly correct in everything and flawless, any mistake or overlook is a chance for a correction, which the correction itself is also part of discussion, though not all of it, it becomes just aimless to only have corrections, but eventually the discussion can also develop past the mistakes.
