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?

Makes sense, the people who have both the tech knowledge and conviction on the advantages of selfhosting, were probably the most active posters.

The new subscribers are probably bots.

100% how spez started out initially and made it appear that reddit had a lot of activity. So this definitely smells like spez-tricks
