Any ideas of communities that we could reach out to suggest them to move to lemmy? (reddthat.com)

The only successful example I found the other day was https://old.reddit.com/r/FloatingIsFun/, now [email protected]

If a few other communities could move over there, that would help make the platform more active.

There is a banned subreddit that recently moved here (I won't mention it to avoid them getting raided, but if you browse All you probably know which one I'm talking about), that was very interesting, and some proof that the current tools (the websites, the mobile apps, the interfaces) could work for people outside of the usual "tech / Linux / FOSS" bubble.

What do you think?

I just hope more come here. I miss the actual content. We do have similar communities, but there are less posts / comments.

I guess we all hope, but we can probably also take some actions.

With the natural user inertia, I don't see people leaving Reddit in mass except if some communities start to actively doing it.

I miss xbox and playstation (all their permutations). Also malelivingspace. The other subbreddits are starting to get vague in my mind. I have been here for a year, so I don’t remember the others.

I posted a bit to [email protected] but stopped, maybe that's something that would be worth investigating.
