I'm out of the loop. What's this "Reddit thread from earlier today"?
Also, yes, welcome to former Reddit users. I'm also a former Redditor, but I left during the API pricing fiasco.

A thread on r/technology about Decentralized Social Media actually got some good traction so a few of us logged back in to promote Lemmy a bit lol
This post is currently at the top of r/AskReddit, the following comment is currently at the top:
My honest opinion is I’d like to see the internet become decentralized again and less monetized.
This new hyper-monetized internet sucks so hard and places like X, YouTube, and Reddit are the issue.
Link - there's already some suggestions of Lemmy, but it would be good to keep adding more!
Id like to point out there are also some really good mobile apps for lemmy. I use sync for lemmy. Hopefully others will recommend there favorites. There are quite a few good ones!
For new people
what did the greedy little pigboy do this time?
An article titled "Decentralized Social Media Is the Only Alternative to the Tech Oligarchy" hit the front page of r/technology and the top comment mentioned lemmy as a reddit alternative. Although the comment was removed when the OP later edited it to include a direct link to join-lemmy.org. Which probably indicates those mods have automod configured to automatically remove links to that site. But the good news is, it still got a lot of attention. It'll be interesting to see if any instance admins will be able to verify an uptick in account registrations over the next few days.
It is the first time I see myself as a hiring manager. It's not that displeasing though.. Welcome everyone!
