My advice is to advertize it outside of Saidit. On Reddit, for example. The Saidit userbase isn't too big, and there are especially few people who'd be interested in a sub like that, I presume.

Yeah, planning on doing that too, I just want to first find all the users already on saidit. Just because I made the sub doesn't mean everyone knows about it, so it'd need at least a little advertising. I think I'll go to places like s/anime and post stuff there.

It's a general problem with Saidit: all new subs would require individual advertising, but the site isn't big enough for that to be worth the trouble. There's this page with new subs; your sub has already gained visibility there. I wonder how many people even browse that page, though. You can advertize it on /s/DiscoverSaidit for an extra boost. (I didn't mention that sub in the first place because it only has 100 subscribers. For it to be effective, I'd have to advertize that sub, but I don't think it's worth the trouble. It's better than nothing, though.)

that sub sounds like a good idea, thanks. I was actually thinking of making one like that myself. I think it IS worth advertising, will make saidit more interconnected and let people grow their subs easier.

Well, feel free to advertize it.
