    Maybe lemmy users should do their part in reaching out to them and offering the fediverse as an alternative?

      I’m a /r/QanonCasualties refugee. I need the support so bad and unsure how to get them to migrate here. I think they are afraid to leave people suffering there, but I can’t post on Reddit or support it at this point. I can find no other forum like it.

      Oh and we relied on bots to give us easy to access assistance with specific things. I guess that’s gone now.

        I’ve been looking for the community here too. It’s nice to see one of my people here :)

        Guess what, a fediversal bot works across the whole fediverse! we’re truly no longer locked into one site, the new tools can work anywhere and everywhere!

      A few people the other day were catching site wide bans for suggesting fediverse. Others have had no problem. I think it depends on the mood of newly installed mods or if a pissed off admin sees you. Obviously also your tone.

      I surmise Threads being somewhat part of the fediverse actually might have made it easier to get away with telling people about Lemmy/kbin but I haven’t been over to reddit to test this out due to trying to quit cold turkey.

      I feel like any mention of lemmy or other competing platforms is suppressed on reddit. At least I saw no activity on any of my posts nor have I saw such posts from others.
