A Reddit post promoting the Fediverse that actually gained traction (and Reddit deleted the top comment for promoting Lemmy) (www.reddit.com)

I haven't seen Reddit give so much attention to the Fediverse in a long time. Maybe we can help them and answer some questions.

would it be immoral for me to mass bot the thread with AI powered pro fediverse propaganda?

You can try, but you'll probably get flagged

U would be surprised what u can do with an account list a proxy list and a tor connection.

why not, ik a lot of ppl are upset with reddit rnow and they prob think lemmy isnt ready, I thought it was bad because of old preconceptions and I never heard about it on reddit, only after I got banned from reddit did I even see that lemmy still existed, had a userbase, and was running without issues now

I really do hope the fediverse takes off, its what I thought the internet would be like when I first got an email and used it as a kid, its wild to me that it's even possible, an actual interconnected network

They also make you think lemmy is like voat or other right wing stuff when the user base here is more like reddit when it was good, far less controversial

Welcome here, feel free if you have any questions!

A few pointers

The worst part of browsing reddit imo, you cant block a subreddit, you downvote posts, it shows up more, no way to hide it from any feed, my subscribed feed showed me tons of subs not relevant to me that I wasn't subbed to after they made the api changes and got rid of the other apps. It felt like they wanted me to open the app and be upset about something everyday when I was just trying to look at what I was subscribed to. (3d, animation, edm, etc. not subbed to any of the main subs, would still see them)
