The /r/piracy link to lemmy /c/piracy hit the reddit frontpage with 7K+ updoots!

You just go to the wrong bars man, or so I've heard

What? You delete the advertising bots??? Rude. What if I'm the type of person who's up at 3am watching infomercials about the cleaning products? And now I come to Lemmy to find the advertisements telling me how to find the hot lonely singles in my area? I want the hot lonely singles! That's a thing, right? For hot people to be single long enough to get lonely? And then they're like "I'd date ANYONE at this point!" and that's when I swoop in, like "You're all out of options now! I'm in!"
And you're just going to take that away from us? Tsk tsk tsk.

That’s real cool to hear!

That instance name is great!

No worries, you make a good point.
For your question, this post https://lemmy.world/post/8505771 is probably better (from [email protected] )

Lemmy really needs to buy ads on Google. I know....Google is just awful.
But doing a search for "reddit alternatives", the first result is reddit.
I'd be willing to chip in some money to get that going.

You don't see the link I posted?

What is it? Looks like badass something but the Voyager app doesn't scroll it.

46K active users is nothing to sneeze at. Most old school forums were hella active with just 1K

I remember my start and immediate end on Bluesky. Got banned for saying the white ones were better. I was discussing Eneloop batteries!

Isn’t .world the most populous instance? Hmm…
This is interesting. I get the impression that some admin/mods truly don’t understand how the Fediverse operates. They ban one (or a few) instance name(s), but there are so many more that they might not even recognize as Lemmy links, which get past the radar.
At the same time, there are fears here that .world could become disproportionately powerful compared to other instances, due to its high user count.
So in a way, Reddit blocking traffic to .world while permitting links to other instances can benefit us all. Smaller instances gain users, which is an important step toward balancing things out and keeping any one instance from becoming too powerful. Thanks, Reddit!
(I recognize the irony of having a .world account. I wasn’t aware of its standing in Lemmy when I made it. I am also still learning the Fediverse myself and don’t know how to transfer my account to another instance yet.)

You need to somehow get your url out. Usually if you're just "generalist" people don't see a big reason to register compared to something like lemm.ee. Also new servers have another issue is that one doesn't know if they'll be around long enough. We've lost so many small servers in lemmy when their admins discovered it was more trouble than it was worth.

On Voyager, one is a mailto link hehe.
