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!

    You are asking a moderator of subreddit to destroy that subreddit. Why would they do that?

      Because Reddit sucks, and moderators know that better than the average user.
      Plus, if they’re the ones that can make their communities on Lemmy or Kbin, they wouldn’t lose their power, just the majority of their subscribers.
      That last reason is why most will say no. Still it’s worth an effort I think

        Those moderators that know, left already. I mean, just google Reddit alternative and leave. Those who stay want to continue.
