Think about things from the point of view of someone who has never used Reddit or the fediverse, but you’ve heard about them both from recent news articles and want to see what they are about.
Reddit:- You Google Reddit and your first result is Reddit.com. You click the link and are presented with the front page. You from scroll from a few hours and end up signing up and staying.
Lemmy:- You Google Lemmy and your first result is a wiki article for Lemmy Kilmister… Your second result might be join-lemmy.org, which you’re smart enough to realise it’s probably more likely what the news is about.
You click join-lemmy.org and are presented with a page of information about the fediverse, links to set up a server and pictures of code…
There is very little chance you’re going to investigate further.
If we want the fediverse to replace Reddit then either
A) Lemmy needs to improve its initial impression and Search engine optimization
B) We should be promoting a different platform with a better initial first impression.
I’d recommend kbin personally as it gives the same sort of experience as Reddit from the initial interaction.
What if they never wanted to transition in the first place?
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Trans people exist, so “eradicating” transgenderism only really has a couple options:
detransition all trans people and do not allow any other trans people to transition, socially or medically
kill all trans people
Maybe if you’re really stretching the definition of “eradicate” you could add an additional option:
Then they don’t transition. Unless you want to make up some imaginary enemy to validate your hate.
