What can we do to get more people to switch over to Lemmy from Reddit?

What do you think is the reason why not a lot more people are joining the fediverse?
Isn't there any solution for that yet?
And what can we do about it now? I mean we have the Fediverse. It's 20 million users are not the most but it's not nothing. We can build on that.
It's a secure messenger
What hosting do you use? You can easily host it using docker.

I've never had any problems with low speed. Maybe it's hosting provider?
If you are a company looking for a forum, you want to be able to control it. Unfederated means you can control account access and don't have to worry about someone going to All and seeing porn etc.
We're talking about Reddit. It's one of the biggest porn sites out there. If anything, it's way easier to control what your employees see if they are on a company instance.
Also, which company uses Reddit as their forum? Most of the ones I have seen use Discourse, which is open source but unfortunately not federated.
Federated could work, but you need to make it clear that it's just a community on a platform.
We're all a big community. I think people get this quickly.
And still is Reddit by far the biggest. How can we change that?
Yeah but that isn't the greater population, unfortunately. What can we do to make the Fediverse more interesting for people?
Fun is always great to capture the masses!
That's a good argument. But shouldn't we then promote FOSS solutions like Perplexica?
