Checked the rules and I think this is allowed? But if you've still got reddit and don't mind being a fediverse evangelist please go hit this thread: https://old.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1i6rp3o/decentralized_social_media_is_the_only/

Especially for Redditors, Lemmy is such a no-brainer alternative. I think I'm gonna try to do more, and try to bring some of my audio communities out here by promoting Lemmy in the subs.

Look at this for inspiration: https://pixelfed.fediverse.observer/dailystats

Someday it will happen for Lemmy again.

Did hit it. Keep servicing that thread, you're doing well. It's blowing up a bit.

Repost this in other communities in Lemmy. Shitpost, technology, etc.

Oh no. Centralized social media fights back! 😂

I think the join-lemmy.org link was fine, it seemed to get deleted when you edited in links to specific lemmy instances?

Didn't say but I'm pretty sure it's because I edited to add lemmy specific information. In particular I mentioned the apps

Welcome.

The biggest thing you have to learn is that everything defaults to "active" instead of "hot." If it seems stale after setting the primary to "hot" in your settings, choose "top 6 hours" and "top 12 hours" to see more content. It's not as addicting so it takes a little time to settle in to the calmness, but it's great after you get used to it.

lmao clicked that link and one of the first comments I see is “reddit is pretty decentralized”

I get that 404 needs to make money but this article could greatly benefit from not being paywalled. Or at least list a definition of what decentralized social media is with some actual recommendations before the paywall because people clearly have no fucking clue

I now have a dozen comments on Reddit in the last year, up from 3 an hour ago.
