Please, help us to better understand how we can effectively funnel reddit users into Lemmy across all demographics, leveraging the average Lemmings advantages like expertise in automation, ai and bots?
What tactics/strategies do you propose? Can we automate the process? Can we somehow add ai to make it more fashionable?
Honestly at this point the people that stay on Reddit just liked getting fucking in the ass by big tech companies or are just too stupid to not be fucked in the ass
Don’t kink shame. It’s their kink and we have to respect it. They like it rough.
I know you are joking, but I feel kinks should be shamed… if it wasn’t shameful it would not be a kink. It’s a weird turn the internet took when it started celebrating kinks.
depends on the kink
What’s an example of a kink that should not be shamed?
all of them except humiliation kinks.
Well then we have completely polar opposite views. There is no kink that should go unshamed imo.
If it is not something a person should be proud of then it is something they should be ashamed of.
I’m fully willing to hear a decent argument that can provide reasoning to the contrary, because I am unable to think of one myself.
You are a very closeminded person then.
When you right, you right
Users don’t care if Lemmy or the Fediverse is more “free” or which technical features are superior to what Reddit offers.
Most users want a place to find content and basically doomscroll. You want users that will submit new content, not just lurkers. So in order to attract people here, the best way to do so is to submit new content.
I would focus on getting top posters from Reddit to move over or at least cross post.
Doing that requires them seeing someone else getting attention that they are not. Anyway you slice it, the answer is more posts being made here.
Users that don’t care about freedom will never care about Lemmy. It’s the only plus it has. It’s why it exists.
Not required, reddit had since activated self destruction mode and still on going
I’ve been on Lemmy for 3 months and it’s frustrating.
politics isnt everything, the more users lemmy has the better. stop gatekeeping foss software, youre only making those ‘capitalist reddit pigs’ wealthier
Maybe inviting people to be less extremist and radicalized. If you want Lemmy to be less of a niche and more of a mainstream platform you have to accept normies.
I literally ended up blocking the world news sub because all the posts and comments were circle jerking around the left wing agenda
Yeah the politics are pretty one sided and hostile
lmao get a life bro
Just stop going to Reddit and start contributing valuable content on Lemmy. If Lemmy is a good network, people will come here on their own.
Using AI bots to spam outsiders with Lemmy info is very likely to have the opposite effect.
Yea i remember how much i hated reddit as a digg user, every annoying bitch was like “i read this on reddit”. Then diggv4 shit the bed and i migrated for the content. Dont be an annoying cunt it will only drive people away. Edit: found the reddit user
lets keep talking about getting redditors here on lemmy which will surely bring the people that arent on lemmy
the fact u said add ai, bros desperate for content just go use reddit some vegetarians still eat bacon sometimes
lemmy sucks my man until we have some actual content itll continue to suck. content has to exist for more content to be created its a self fulfilling prophecy that would likely never happen due to lemmy being weird and not super intuitive in the beginning
i say all this as a reddit refugee and lemmy user though i use lemmy less because it sucks but ive stopped using reddit entirely (except for those long nights if you know what i mean)
The real answer is posting memes on Reddit with a Lemmy watermark so they feel unhip. But please don’t, Reddit is currently keeping the Reddit users contained, and that’s better for every other platform.
Don’t want to. This is good as it is. There’s already a fair crack of wowsers here, and that’s already too many. The discussion here was pretty amazing a while back, but it’s already dumbing down as this place grows.
Lemmy was great as they were coding it. Been down hill ever since.

Interesting argument, so you are saying now we are at the sweet spot?
We’ve passed it. However, I concede the focused communities are appearing now, which is nice.
Why would you want to increase the number of redditors here?
The reddit posts I saw made it seem WAY more complicated then it was.
It made it seem I was going to have to make dozens of different users. That it was going to be an issue posting to different instances. That I was going to need several programs to talk to eachother…
Mean while. I signed up. Sync told me. ‘hey! You just got lemmy - I already work for that!’ and here I am. Sometime I forget this isn’t reddit.
Seriously. Whatever flyers you want to spread for reddit needs to show how EASY it is to come here.
Speaking of that. Do we lemmings have a dedicated post we can share to redditor who are ready to switch?
Would you be willing to create such a post/Share link?
