Let me start by thanking everyone that has joined https://fediverser.network and the ones who are already helping to categorize and create a map between subreddits and the recommended Lemmy alternatives. Y’all are amazing and I hope we can keep it up.
To keep in mind that the main goal of this whole project is to help people on reddit to migrate quickly and effortlessly to Lemmy, I was thinking on what could be done once we have the majority of the niche subreddits mapped out. I thought about the idea of creating “Community Ambassadors”, which would be basically people interested in “turning” other redditors from their specific communities to Lemmy.
Basically that would require you to signup to Fediverser to indicate what community you are focusing on and how many people you are willing to reach out per day. The system could then collect the top posts of that subreddit every day and let you trigger a (custom, personalized) DM to the people telling them about the alternative Lemmy community that exists with a link to alien.top’s portal to make one-click migration.
I do it sometimes when people ar me promoting their creations. Sometimes it works, sometimes not
If “sometimes it works” means anything above “10% of the time”, I’d say then it’s a quite successful strategy.
Which communities would you be interested in picking up?
I just usually target my country sub. People are getting more and more annoyed with the number of ads on Reddit, usually that’s a good angle to suggest them alternatives
