Most people aren’t even thinking of moving to reddit alternatives. Users have a lot of power in this situation. Just move your community to Lemmy or Kbin. It’s not that hard.

    I don’t think you understand the benefits of the Fediverse. With multiple sites you have alternatives to go to if the site goes to shit. Lemmy and kbin sites also appeal to different tastes, rather than having to endure one size fits all mentality. Being federated means you can subscribe to and access and post on other federated sites from kbin. No more monopoly abuse.

      But what I’m saying is, when reddit subs are finding out there’s not just “one Lemmy” they’re realizing the potential of being able to split up their one sub into an entire instance of communities. For example, the r/knitting sub might look at Lemmy and realize instead of setting up knitting@lemmy.ml, they could create knittingclub.social and have separate communities for yarns, sewing machines, needles, quilting, scarf making, etc.
