I've been developing a mmorpg minecraft server as a full time for the past 2 years. Since the beginning I had a clear vision of what I really wanted to achieve at the end, and as time passed I've kept adding more systems, content, and balancing docs to push it toward what I want it to be (a real mmorpg mc server that offers players different gameplay choices as much as possible and players even come back after taking a break without feeling "everyone completed the server while I wasnt playing it"). I'm the only dev and I have no team (except artist that I worked a few months ago).
So far it's been a private project, outside of a few irl friends and a small group of online people, nobody really knows what I'm building or what's coming. It was intentional, I always wanted to build first, prepare the content fully and then start marketing it. (I never wanted to do "devlog: day 1 of adding xyz"
)
Here's where I am now:
The problem is I was too focused on development phase and now its kinda done that I genuinely don't know how to start telling people about it, I'm kinda lost under my own creation even tho I documented everything. And yeah, I have no experience on social media marketing or sharing updates on socials, that's part of it. At this point I'm looking for advice that can help me get out of this situation.
Edit: I received couple of private messages about people wanting to join and help me test the server! Thanks yall, I wasn’t expecting this!

GDD
(30+ page)
Hundreds of pages of system layout and design docs
whiteboards filled with mechanic reworks, design, research and ton of drawings
