It is a subconscious level ad for the utility/value of the platform. You don't need to be overt about the screenshot containing Lemmy by name. Any subtle details are all that is needed. This is all it takes to attract the most valuable people; simply show them that they are missing out on something useful. It is effective psy ops.
Nice try, spez. Reddit deserves to be abandoned & I'm doing my part to turn it into a ghost town.
Saaame.
A ghost town looney bin, since all with sense left.
Me too, but not all are, and this place is hemorrhaging and getting smaller. This is one logical way to do several things. Think about all angles of what I am saying and what it means for all involved. If r/loli or (whatever it was) needed a moderator to grow early reddit, and that is what spaz did, I get it. I would have used a burner, but I get it, and am in a similar vain here. I'm not straddling, but I know many are. Motivating anyone to take a little more action here is a habit forming positive. Getting people thinking about posting unique content with value to them is another important angle.
That's not true. The userbase has remained steady since July of last year. There are some up and down swings with posts, but some of it is seasonal, and some of it is just the normal up and down swings of a service. We'll expect more users and posts as Spez continues to fuck up Reddit, and make it hostile to its users.
Or alternatively it gives spez more data to sell
yeah. I'm definitely not contributing to that.
Seems like using Lemmy with extra steps.
Never post there
Don't do that, it won't bring many people here. It will just give Reddit more free content.
Yeah, no thanks. Keep them over there please.
This is why people post 4chan screenshots all over the place - building the alt-right pipeline.
I just think overt idiosyncrasies and exaggerated awkwardness are funny, and greentexts are far and away the best source for both. However, I’d be lying if I said that seeing the community inch toward intolerance, despite every opportunity to stay kind, didn’t cause me to post less.
I'm not surprised.
There will be a day of reckoning for that community and for the instance that hosts it. It's just a matter of time.
Let's see your best examples, OP. Walk the walk, please.
Me, as an article-writer and content creator I try to low-key share links to such on Reddit, but also try not to go overboard.
Knowing one's community is also key, as some will welcome fairly overt links, while others will become greatly offended at even subtle Lemmy content.
I asked on my school's subreddit if there was a Lemmy community. Got like 4 replies, all basically variations of "never heard of it" and one person who freaked the hell out about how I, personally, was the ruination of reddit for asking this. Lmao
The one person freaking out was prolly a bot programmed to reply to lemmy posts
Seems like the average Reddit experience ha ha
Fight the good fight brother!
