A few ideas from the top of my head

  • Flairs that can be allowed to filter content in a community
  • Major online communites (can be subreddits, or other communities) moving to Lemmy
  • Reddit removing old.reddit
  • Reddit banning people using VPNs (already happening, see [email protected] )
  • Lemmy becoming the reference source of knowledge for a certain domain

Second point is probably crucial, but I don’t see any major subreddit wanting to move here. StarTrek is the exception more that the rule.

    Sopuli kind of achieves this, by defederating the instances that are for the kind of content I would want a separate account for anyway.

    Lemmy could really use a feature where instance admins can “shadow defedarate” instances and communities. They would not actually become inaccessible, but instead simply not appear in all, instead only appearing for users who have found the community some other way, and subscribed.
