Also, if you have doubts about brigading, Discuit have a brigading post on their meta community: https://discuit.net/DiscuitMeta/post/pTyw2MZw

I made a comment elsewhere in this thread, but I would be interested in helping out with a recruitment effort! Maybe it's time to set up a Lemmy "get the word out" community?

[–] Franconian_Nomad@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, good idea. At least some organised effort would be helpful.

The other guy was right so, we should only inform and be helpful. Coming off as zealots would be counterproductive.

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 4 points 2 months ago

Yes absolutely, it depends on the context. The overall goal of such a community I think should just be to "put it out there", and have people on reddit at least casually aware that Lemmy exists the same way people on Twitter are (now) aware of BlueSky and Mastodon.
