MODERATORS
Earlier this year I s/twitter/mastodon/ to good effect. I don't think s/reddit/lemmy/ will happen anytime soon; the numbers are too small for any real network effect.
For example, the subreddit I spend the most time in has >2million readers. There are enough posts daily that my niche interests come up regularly and I contribute to those discussions.
Everything started somewhere. I think (could be way off here) that Reddit became popular because of some unpopular stuff Digg was doing.
Yup, that's how I ended up on reddit back in the day, when digg did some stupid shit, that I don't even remember wat was any more, but something similar to what reddit is doing now.
