More than half redditors doesn’t know this exist.
Edit: Ok damn that’s a lot of stuff, I agree tm people always messes things up and yes we are very outnumbered . I’m not saying we should be hating reddit I want people to know there’s an alternative when the corporate mess shits on reddit after a while. Thanks for the , um, Interesting stuff. Couldn’t help noticing it was more actually useful stuff instead of useless slander which makes up reddit i love you guys.
Do we want them all to know? There were a lot of shit heads on Reddit when I was there.
Everyone on Lemmy used Reddit at some point. It’s not like we’re some rare breed of human.
I thought we were supposed to the best of the rest /s
And just like the history of Reddit, from being niche and obscure to being ubiquitous and heavily trafficked, everything gets horrible when it gets big. The enshittification eye of Sauron is always watching, waiting for anything to get good enough to ruin.
No thanks, I’m a Linux user that is okay with being in the 2-4%. If it had a large market share, someone would find a way to capitalize on it. I’m also perfectly happy with my one and only form of social media staying small and cozy.
Yes its called free speech they might be idiots or shit heads in your eyes but they have as much of a right to speak as u do.
Free speech rights don’t apply to platforms. We have the right, arguably the responsibility, to filter certain speech.
Who’s the arbiter of that?
Too late, looks like Reddit is already here, with an IQ hovering around room temp.
I bet my damned paycheck you’re one of those guys that thinks free speech means you can call the lady at Wendy’s the N word without repercussions.
I bet my damn paycheck u think free speech is the first amendment and not a philosophical idea.

I remember when people were trying to make posts telling others about Lemmy. A lot of them just straight up got removed. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s still the case.
I’ve told people on Reddit but they don’t seem to care.
I’m fine with a bunch of them staying for the enshittification. Lemmy is growing and that’s all that matters
OC infographics, shared as pics. Include the URL of your Lemmy account, for authorship. If the infographic is interesting/cool/useful people will share it, indirectly promoting Lemmy.
Good
Someone write a Reddit bot (preferably in python) I’ll happily make a pull with a langchain chain and someone find a whole bunch of Reddit accounts and openai api keys. Let’s ai manufacture some propaganda on mass bois.
En masse*
I don’t think the way to go is flooding them with garbage. What reasonable person would see that and think “Yeah, this is where I want to spend my time”? The only solution in my mind is to engage in meaningful, relevant, organic conversation, and talk about how Lemmy has been a great (or at least good enough) alternative to Reddit. Let the platform win on merit.
It’s a minor thing but instead of sharing imgur links, post the image in Lemmy and share the URL to that.
