I literally just saw this pop up in my Mastodon feed a few minutes ago, funny enough. I haven't used it so I can't vouch for it, but I would imagine that's something akin to what you're looking for.

15 years, reddit gold charter member, Secret Santa, all that stuff. And longer than 15 really, if you count the browsing I did before I made my account (I remember before subreddits were even a thing, when reddit was literally just a front page).

Still visit on desktop sometimes because unfortunately some people will probably never leave and there are communities that are useful to me that haven't migrated. Same with with Twitter, which is frustrating to no end because they spend half of their time complaining about the site but never actually fucking leave.

My mobile usage is completely gone though. I used RIF for over a decade, I'm not using anything else.

White Belt Wednesday was super helpful to me on the subreddit. And though I'll be testing for my yellow in a few weeks (!!!) I have a feeling something like that would continue to be valuable well into the future. And we'll definitely need a wiki of some sort eventually if we want to keep growing, whether that means copying over the old one or creating something new. Those things are a huge part of why so many subreddits were invaluable to people.

Other than that, keep on trucking! 100 subscribers seems like a small milestone, but building these sorts of communities takes time. If you build it, they will come, so on and so forth.

That makes sense - thanks!

Can someone explain to me why/how a Lemmy instance would federate with Threads anyway? I get it with Mastodon - they are both Twitter like apps, it makes sense. You could theoretically follow a Threads account and just have their posts appear in your Mastodon feed. I don't quite understand how that would even work here.
