In think the key to helping those stuck in the Reddit world is to cross post Lemmy/kbin links to Reddit. You can even get any url to a post via the share feature on the apps. Letβs make them aware there is a place where they are not just making money more money.
You could cross post to Lemmy and then put a link in the Reddit thread that says something like: "for the real conversation, the way Reddit used to be, come to Lemmy"
That might get Reddit accounts banned though π
Hey there, also calling back from kbin.social as some of the commenters in this mini-raft.
Although most of the politics posts can be a bit of an eyesore to most of us here, I found comfort in this instance, even going so far as to establish some new mags for my ephemeral interests, one for the musico-archivist Derivakat herself, of which I have grown tired of continually building as my college era began to set in, up until this point.
As for private small-group convos, I'm also mulling moving on to revolt.chat along with a few others in my own Discord server if ever its fires start blazing forth.
We all went here
Iβm here!
Present
still here
Yup, I'm here
I'm generally browsing the news subs which is usually what I did on reddit. I also check out All but comment less often in things I find there because it is just filled with memes after I blocked all the hexbear garbage.
Still here my man
