Totally not suspicious timing at all.
Also if you're willing to visit reddit, the comments under the post are great. They're not fooling anyone.

I'm definitely going to be helping out with a join lemmy banner somewhere
This is exactly what they want. You'll give them clicks and anything they don't like will be removed.
Hard to imagine that the clicks will make a difference, they have hundreds of millions of users. If we give them 1% more clicks and grow Lemmy by 100%, that's a worthwhile trade-off.
You really think they want advertisements for "the new Reddit" all over their IPO showcase project?
There will 100% be mod overreach, but I'm guessing/hoping it will be more focused on removing people making a big API and fuck u/spez. Sure, those few of us working on maintaining it will add some clicks but it's a drop in the ocean to them. Its a public place (pun unintended) seen by a great many people. The benefit to us will be greater than to reddit.
Someone should create a community on Lemmy to coordinate
