Please, help us to better understand how we can effectively funnel reddit users into Lemmy across all demographics, leveraging the average Lemmings advantages like expertise in automation, ai and bots?

What tactics/strategies do you propose? Can we automate the process? Can we somehow add ai to make it more fashionable?

I've been on Lemmy for 3 months and it's frustrating.

Or to put it another way, "do any of you have subreddits that can promote Lemmy". That's the only way I envision this.

The best thing about Lemmy is that it's not R.

I'm assuming there's a shredder in the middle of the funnel, kind of like when that ice machine shreds up a random crony in James Bond prior to the avalanche in that scene in whatever James Bond film it was I forget.

Maybe inviting people to be less extremist and radicalized. If you want Lemmy to be less of a niche and more of a mainstream platform you have to accept normies.

I literally ended up blocking the world news sub because all the posts and comments were circle jerking around the left wing agenda

Yeah the politics are pretty one sided and hostile

It is super political here, which sucks.
