Please, help us to better understand how we can effectively funnel reddit users into Lemmy across all demographics, leveraging the average Lemmings advantages like expertise in automation, ai and bots?

What tactics/strategies do you propose? Can we automate the process? Can we somehow add ai to make it more fashionable?

Meanwhile, my experience on Lemmy has been a whole lot of "you don't like Stalin because you haven't read enough Chomsky."

It's actually worse than reddit in many ways.

You're on an instance that uses very few blocked instances. Perhaps you should sign up on an instance that blocks tankies instead? Remember that the instances that your instance is federated with also determines your feed since their votes are counted as well.

This has been my experience using Lemmy across many accounts on several instances. It's generally a major negative aspect of the user experience so far that the most populated and active communities are arguably more toxic and obnoxious than reddit
