Hi all! I used to be a daily r/selfhosted lurker and a bit active user. Since the Reddit saga I thought that r/selfhosted would be one of the first and bigger community to move to Lemmy due to the IT knowledge of all of their users and the sensitivity about self host/privacy/open source, but I see that not only the community is still all there, but it's rising. :( That really makes me sad. How can we convince the mods there to move people here? Is it allowed to talk about Lemmy on Reddit or do we risk of being banned?

More subscribers.. check More comment.. maybe check Quality content.. nah

I use RSS to get r/selfhosted post and I can guarantee that most posts are amateurs asking questions.

You got it all wrong, everyone is on Threads ................ Nah, I just subscribed to learn about starting some self hosting. I'm running a local media server, which was easy, but want to branch out to photo backup from my various phones/accounts. Getting nervous that Google will just close my account one day for no reason. Anyway, don't fret, the community doesn't need to be 💯 today, it'll get there.

I personally believe reddit will live on, that's just the way its going to be. I dropped off, but my account is still there.

The change will come once people start searching for stuff on Google and they get results which link back to lemmy. For that to happen we need people asking for help/feedback and getting their answers here.

The issue is I'm keen on following the self-hosting / server specific content but generally I've got nothing exciting to add. I can offer upvotes and kbin boosts 🚀

Why would you care about getting banned from Reddit?

[–] peregus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Because Lemmy has about 0.something % of the users that Reddit has and I still find useful some subreddit.
