IMO fediverse is big enough now to serve as reddit replacement.

Is thus just for one instance or across many instances

Was wondering what kicked off more signups.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Probably reddit announcing some shitty monetization scheme

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The CEO said they were going to add pay-walled subreddits at an earnings call.

So... Yep.

Every time reddit announces something dumb I open Lemmy again. I'd rather be here on principle but the content/users just aren't here yet. Where are the cross post bots?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 months ago (8 children)

Out of curiosity, what content are you looking for? Discovery on Lemmy can be a problem, but sometimes the communities are there and even active, just buried.

But may I also suggest searching by Top Day/12-hour/6-hour to see the most active posts. Lemmy's scaled algorithm still doesn't get it quite right IMO.

Why not cross post some of the content yourself?

The content/users aren't here so I'm stubbornly trying to post content and comment whenever I can.

Even if I shout into the void, or get a few upvotes and little other engagement.

Although I understand it's not for everyone, I encourage you to help out with that ;-;

Which content are you interested in?

https://lemmit.online/ can be used to crosspost content from Reddit, but you won't get much comments as people tend to prefer content curated by humans

[email protected] has a weekly thread with active communities.

Interesting! We've had quite a noticeable spike of sign-ups on lemm.ee as well

[–] [email protected] 47 points 5 months ago (5 children)

I have been mentioning it on Reddit a few times, so glad to see that helps!

Not saying it’s the bots… but it’s the bots, isn’t it?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago

This guy bots.

[–] [email protected] 96 points 5 months ago (2 children)

We've definitely noticed an increase in signups at lemmy.ca when that news was announced. Not all active users yet, but a lot of signups

[–] [email protected] 31 points 5 months ago

Thanks for the insight!

Hey congratulations you discovered a statistical anomaly.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It may be, but could you try making the same remark without sounding like a toxic asshole?
