r/selfhosted is still rising, WTF? Come to Lemmy!!!
Hi all! I used to be a daily r/selfhosted lurker and a bit active user. Since the Reddit saga I thought that r/selfhosted would be one of the first and bigger community to move to Lemmy due to the IT knowledge of all of their users and the sensitivity about self host/privacy/open source, but I see that not only the community is still all there, but it's rising. :( That really makes me sad. How can we convince the mods there to move people here? Is it allowed to talk about Lemmy on Reddit or do we risk of being banned?
You're viewing a single thread.
Well firstly, why do you care about being banned if you're leaving Reddit?
Come to terms with Reddit not dying overnight. Lemmy isn't going to vanish if people don't move over straight away. Reddit will eventually succumb to the 1000s of tiny self-inflicted cuts. Post content that isn't on Reddit and people will have a motivation to stay here.
Make Lemmy the place to be when reddit kills the next thing, and the next thing, and the next thing. Yeah we're small, but we're something crazy like almost 10x the size we were before the 3rd party app shitshow.
We aim to be the place where people can migrate to next time reddit causes a freakout, like killing old reddit
