Right now there are similarely named communities across the fediverse.
“fediverse@xxx”, “Linux@xxx”, “asklemmy”, “askkbin”…etc…
I’m on kbin and I’m having a hard time figuring out how to use the fediverse more productively, by reaching the largest amount of people for asking questions, solving problems, simply put: to engage… like I used to do on Reddit?
What changed their stance is that they were offered mod positions on the new instance (all of this is public). But anyway, whatever the motives are, and whatever happened behind the scenes during their private Matrix chat, it still stands that there is no merger. 19k users are being treated as transferable goods and are being denied a say in this. There is a hostile takeover taking place and we are seeking to abort it.
My point was just to not quickly consider [email protected] “merging” with the Reddit mods’ community as a given fact, it’s a falsehood that is being propagated by the Reddit mods.

Reddit isn’t setup to federate, it’d require a lot of backend overhauling that they can’t afford.
