He would be the perfect person to AMA as he’s already associated with Reddit revolts, and it would result in tremendous media coverage and mark fediverse as a viable alternative to Reddit. What do you think?

I said this in another comment, but this AMA should not be about reddit at all. In fact, we only bring up reddit to the effect of asking how he felt about his pictures. If we make this a regular AMA about his regular life, it would show lemmy to be a viable alternative to reddit. He doesn't know anything about lemmy other than that it's an alternative to reddit where people control the platform.

That's a good point. At some point we need to be able to sustain a conversation beyond "look at reddit".

Doubt nobody will ask his opinions about Reddit though.

Don't get me wrong, he's a great guest, but he's a bit too big for Lemmy right now. He has probably a very busy schedule, and can't take a couple hours off just to chat with a dozen people.

A single tweet from him will take far less time and get 100x more views.
