Cited GrowthDex tactics
- Devvit app-centric subreddit before broader promoCreate an app-centric subreddit with update rituals before you push for broader Reddit discovery, so the first wave lands in a place that already feels alive.
- Devvit one-tap home feed loop before deep session designMake the first action work from the home feed in one tap before you add deeper session complexity, because Reddit discovery starts in passing, not in a committed app store mindset.
