It’s no secret that Lemmy is shaping up to be a viable alternative to Reddit. The issue it faces however is that it’s still relatively niche and not many people know about it. I propose that we change this. By contacting the mods of large subreddits and asking them to make and promote relevant Lemmy communities we could substantially increase the amount of people who discover the fediverse. What’s more, I don’t think this is would be a hard sell considering many mods are already pissed off with Reddit due to their API changes. I believe that this is the time to act, so this is a call to arms, to help grow the fediverse into the future of social media!
It’s usable, but has a userbase thick with FOSSbros. The kind of folks that take a moral stance on whether you play mario vs supertux.
On an internet that’s already skewed male, this place is even more male. Not a bad thing inherently, but again, it means lots of tech junkies.
