    I understand the motive, I too am on some niche communities that sometimes didn’t have posts for months. For that i use reddit (but the old interface). Now let’s see your question.

    No, we can’t make lemmy as popular as reddit, but we can turn lemmy into a reddit twin, and make it popular, by pushing only one instance like .world.

    The social media that popularised fediverse the most was mastodon, and yet it’s because they pushed mastodon.social as the default, making a large part of the userbase think that mastodon is only mastodon.social.

    People do not even notice things more complicated than buttons “join”, “login”, or “post”. They are lost on join-lemmy.org because they don’t know why they should choose a server, read description, understand whatever is federation, and they’ll prefer going back to their comfort zone.

    But hey, social media experience enshittifies as the userbase gets bigger, and i came here by fleeing reddit so please don’t
