If the mod team sees that you are posting about plans or actually planning a banner that says “Join Lemmy” or something similar, that is fine. If you are posting about an effort that is more along the lines of “Fuck Spez” or a giant penis with a Fediverse logo, we will remove the posts or comments. You can’t plan that here. Lemmy.world admins do not want us over there making the Fediverse look bad on Reddit, and today is no exception.
It’s fine to post funny pictures of what people on Reddit have already done, but we won’t be planning anything like that here.
This is the way. A major selling point of lemmy, well to me, is that it is a lot less toxic than Reddit. Best to advertise that fact than emulate the toxicity of Reddit and turn off those on the fence of migrating.
Lemmy is not reddit. You can get lemmy instances as toxic as you want, it wont fuck up the rest of the community half as much.
Other than that, it is also not promoting that behaviour in the first place. Reddit inadvertently went that way because they were aiming on the monetisation front.
Moderators there are also incentivised to be greedy fucks. Hungarian community on /r/hungary never got on the next level because the mods do not want to fucking give up control to specialized subreddits. It is a valuable turf that has access to hundreds of thousands of citizens in a single place.
On lemmy you dont want to use a crappy client that does not give you a proper set of options among all instances. On lemmy the “meta” is all in on bots and tools. There is no plausible deniability.
