I mean don’t get me wrong, its cool a lot of subs have and still are participating in the blackout, but I think it wouldve been better to link a new home for the subreddits participating somewhere in the private message. Show spez, hey if you dont change, we aren’t going to use your site (or use it less).
No, don’t point redditors to our servers, let them find by themselves. It’s a great filter. If someone is motivated enough to leave reddit then he will find us.
I don’t think this is the best strategy; I think if we want people to leave we should make it as easy as possible. We can’t just prioritize the people who will take the time to learn and understand federated spaces, and google search or whatever to find us; in terms of user volume, if we want to be competitive, we need average users, too.
Yeah, just like in reddit, there’s no need to filter people out of the site… since you can just stick to the communities you prefer.
