Serious question, as I‘ve barely seen any mention of Lemmy on Reddit. None of the Mod posts regarding the Blackout mentioned Lemmy as far as I‘m aware. Would it be against the TOS to start a coordinated promotion?
er, nothing? I found out about lemmy from reddit
I dont think it’s againts rules, I found Lemmy because of Reddit.
None of the Mod posts regarding the Blackout mentioned Lemmy as far as I‘m aware
Rumor has it they banned a lot of mods and communities for encouraging exactly that to their subscribers, so it was considered quite risky.
I found out about lemmy from r/EDC where they mentioned in their B.O. post they would be at https://sopuli.xyz/c/edc
here’s the post: https://www.reddit.com/r/EDC/comments/145fxdb/reddit_is_killing_itself/
Hey there :)
But why “asshole”? Almost every sub posted a similar thing and I see nothing wrong with that post unless I’m missing something 😝
Also curious, did you run into my comment by chance or did you actually get pinged when I mentioned the EDC community?
Just happened across it lol
You know how reddit is though. Any moderation is going to draw ire from someone. Since I decided to be as transparent as possible about how I moderate and why I make the decisions I make, more people saw the moderation, so there were more “someones” to get annoyed lol.
A couple of the automod posts had some folks get nasty, though I removed those once the initial two day no activity protest was over. I could have just bailed and let reddit replace me eventually, but I’m not able to do that, ethically. I made a commitment, so I’ll make sure to find at least one mod to replace me next month before I stop moderating entirely.
I’ll still hang in to lend advice to the new guys and make sure they aren’t just going to trash the sub, but then I’m out entirely
We should make a community on Lemmy about promoting Lemmy on reddit. We could do something like an AMA with people talking about Lemmy. I don’t see how they could stop us. If they ban us it’s just more threads about how we got banned for talking.
Looks like that subreddit is being run by people who are obsessed with kbin and don’t actually support lemmy. But there are plenty of upvoted comments in support of lemmy. We should try to take that over to provide a better tutorial for redditors who are thinking about moving.
I think that’s cause r/kbinmigration got banned and they got moved to r/lemmymigration, the support is more so supporting both while sympathizing how kbin’s subreddit got banned which i think could be why there isn’t that many posts of supporting lemmy
I mean. Is there really that big of a difference? they All run on activity hub
