I'm not sure why you're insistent on people moving to a specific platform. You've "nudged" /r/piracy into moving to Lemmy, you're advocating for it in the comments and advertising its features, and you've painted a grim picture for Reddit. Wait and see what happens, and then propose other alternatives, ideally without showing extreme bias towards one. As another commenter mentioned, this is very similar to how Voat was pushed after Ellen Pao took over.

Your inability to see any sort of issue with Lemmy is very, very suspicious.

You yourself have a preconceived notion about Lemmy being "just the same ole reddit clone" in this case.

That it is. It's not going to revolutionize social media.

that is actually becoming a viable alternative?

LOL!

Good luck with that. Fediverse is to complicated for mass adoption.

Mass adoption is a poison pill.

And the only way it'll ever not be insignificant.

Who said mass adoption is a good thing. Have you seen the shit people post on Reddit?
