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?

The most useful comment in this entire thread, the search results are a bit of a mess currently and that's a huge stumbling block.
I tried a simple search query with lemmy and the way results come back is not good
it's going to take a long time for that to change but just as a casual user I doubt I'd click anything past the first few reddit links.
The fact we're on the first screen of results is progress! 🎉
It's definitely progress and seeing myself in one of the top results was nice but it's going to take a lot more work and tbh the decentralised nature of the links might also hurt because clicking on the dbzero link looks like a hackerman link if you know what I mean
