Anyone well known who wants to speak out about what's been happening on reddit? Louis Rossmann? Apollo dev? John Oliver (one can dream)... or maybe former Reddit mods who were kicked out?

Anyone who has a story and who understands they'd have a massive impact by giving an exclusive AMA on a Lemmy or Kbin instance.

This could be announced a few days in advance to make sure all remote instances follow the AMA community.

Layout is still being tweaked and you want the UI to be as easy to manage as possible for people doing the AMA (new reddit is likely a factor in more recent AMAs not being as good)

It's a bit of a chicken and egg situation regarding amount of people. More people will bring in more AMAs because it is largely a publicity thing. A low userbase means people may not want to do an AMA, or choose to do an AMA on a larger platform. But having AMAs brings people in. It's hard to get the ball rolling.

Maybe we can ask Spez to do an AMA on Lemmy?

Well I agree getting someone good may be difficult, but we can try. I think the UI, while there is certainly room for improvement, is sufficient for trying.
