I’m sure we’ve all seen db0’s post on fediverse about the success of linking c/piracy to r/piracy; and due to the ongoing reddit exodus, there is an opportunity:

What if we talk to the reddit mods of equivalent communities, and ask them to link to the lemmy version? It seems it could be a great success. I’ve even made a post for these new users: https://lemm.ee/post/54814946 and the mods, to explain in as short time as i can how to get completely set for the threadiverse.

    New accounts can be shadow-banned at first, it’s better if the account is a few days/weeks old before using links in comments

    Urgh… and here I go, farming 1k karma in r/AskReddit. (I’ll simply ask a chatbot to give me "one line witty and funny replies to [post title].)

        Nah :P I used this “one line witty and funny replies in r/AskLebbit” approach all the time, when I created troll accounts. All the change is just automatising the process of getting a few ideas.

        Plus… honestly? If Reddit gets filled with bot-generated replies, that’s good.

            …fine, fine! If the bot problem in Reddit becomes even worse than it already is! :D

            I know, I know. The place is already a botfest. I’m pissing in an ocean of piss.

              Our new overlords don’t seem to mind - it’s only us pesky humans that bother with such things!
