A Reddit post promoting the Fediverse that actually gained traction (and Reddit deleted the top comment for promoting Lemmy) (www.reddit.com)

I haven't seen Reddit give so much attention to the Fediverse in a long time. Maybe we can help them and answer some questions.

Was reading through the thread and holy shit I swear half the comments are anti fediverse propaganda.

Some comments are suspiciously skeptical. If they were this skeptical of Reddit before joining then they never would've joined Reddit lol. Someone just tried to tell me that the report button on Lemmy doesn't do anything.

And people talking about bots too lol Reddit will literally repost a 1 year old post with identical title and copy-paste the top 100 comments from the original too, talk about bots! And they aren't labeled as bots! At least bots here are labeled and you can hide them all instantly.

And then they ask for extreme details on how everything works and try to become a master at it before even signing up. Is that how they signed up for Reddit and Discord? I doubt it.

No way these people were that closed-minded and stubborn when they were signing up for Reddit.
