How do you actually have people listen to you, there’s not really many people on reddit that I’ve found that you can tell them reddits crap and you should move to this instead.
I think you just need to promote it at the right time to the right audience, and suggest the right instances. People who are saying they’re sick of Reddit, especially when Reddit does something to shoot themselves in the foot. I think just trying to force it onto people will have the opposite effect.
@Blaze@feddit.org puts a lot of effort into promoting Lemmy on Reddit, they’ll have some decent input on how to promote it!
There’s also !fedigrow@lemm.ee which is a community around this kind of thing if you’re interested.
There is no “they” really - it’s up to us as users to promote it.
With “they”, I meant the owners/mantainers, specifically. Without some promotion from their part, there aren’t so much users to promote it further.
How do we as users make sure Lemmy and the rest of the Fediverse grows?
Just promote it to users of traditional centralised corporate sites. Promote established but smaller instances and explain why it’s better 😊
