What‘s keeping us from promoting Lemmy on Reddit?

Manu@feddit.de to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 11 points –

Serious question, as I‘ve barely seen any mention of Lemmy on Reddit. None of the Mod posts regarding the Blackout mentioned Lemmy as far as I‘m aware. Would it be against the TOS to start a coordinated promotion?

Do it do it do it, Mastodon is just as friendly a place as Lemmy in my experience.

I've had to migrate my account off Beehaw today sadly but on the bright side it's given me an excuse to explore more instances. Still haven't come across a sewing or embroidery / cross-stitch community anywhere. I'll have to look harder tonight. Have you seen any yet?

Not yet. That's one thing I'll miss from reddit until they pick up here, that's for sure. Let me know if you find anything!

Yeah, the defedeation thing, I really like Beehaw, and I ended up making a lemmy.world account too, so I'll just end up using both of them at the same time :V

That's fair. My gamedev account is on .world and honestly it's been fine, we're not savages over there or anything :D

I've found a new crochet community that only has a couple people but they're at least trying to post things !crochet@lemmy.ca (direct link)

!embroidery@discuss.tchncs.de (direct link)with one solitary post, dunno if they'll accept my cross stitch but it is technically embroidery so....

And a couple of sewing ones but neither have much going on.

Still, all it takes is for us to get stuck in making content, right? :)

For sure, I had, great experiences on world so far, I think they're just worried about the possible future, perhaps.

Thanks! I'll join those as well with an alt account and hopefully we'll be able to grow them.

Just checking back in with an update, I found a brand new cross stitch (and embroidery) community too. It's on one of the defederated servers but since you have an alt accout already...

!lemmy_stitch@sh.itjust.works

:)

Omg, thank you, you're my favourite user here <3

Oh bless you! Just doing my bit to try and help people find their way around :)
