r/Lemmy has a single moderator, u/MarcellusDrum.

r/RedditAlternatives has a few:

  • u/ryan_II
  • u/RedditWater7
  • u/RedditLiquid8
  • u/Madbrad200
  • u/Dukkani
  • u/Zakku_Rakusihi

Are any of them active on Lemmy? These subreddits are proving to be key spaces for onboarding new users to Lemmy. Might it be prudent to establish good relationships with these people?

None of them seem to be particularly active in the above communities. It would be nice if they could swap out some of the pinned threads, many of which contain outdated information.

    If it was on zero upvotes, might it have been removed without human intervention?

    It might be worth resubmitting the post and linking to it from Lemmy/Piefed to help promote it.

      We actually did advertise it, and it took 7 hours to remove so it’s a safe bet to say it was manual. I think the reason why people hate fedi so much there, is because the people who want to be there already are, and people who dislike it still remain.

        Not necessarily. It could have just taken 7 hours to dip below a positive vote score, triggering the automod.

        Was this recently? I don’t recall seeing it in the fedibridge community.

        This is definitely problem, one that I hope this community can help to address!

          I don’t actually exactly know how reddit works, iirc the post hit 0 upvotes like 40 mins in lol. But you may be right

          Was this recently? I don’t recall seeing it in the fedibridge community.

          Actually yes, just go a couple of days down and you’ll find a post about piefed being advertised on reddit.

          Thanks, I hope so too! :D

            Oh, was that the Virgin/Chad meme? For some reason, I can still see that thread on Reddit.
