Just making sure I’m in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I’ve started wondering, what’s the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I’ve heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.
It’s a great and easy way to get an overview of new communities or communities with some new activity. I check interesting communities and if i like them, i subscribe. There is also a community where you can ask for a certain community. I asked once and someone replied and pointed me to an interesting community:
I’m not trying to cause an argument but when Reddit pulled it’s bs - I said that’s enough. I gave up my Reddit addiction and didn’t open it or visit the site for over 30 days....
There’s a reddit archiver instance of lemmy: lemmit.online. It’s a good solution if you only want to access posts from a subreddit without commenting on them or creating traffic for reddit. You can either look for a particular existing subreddit or request one if it’s not being archived at the moment.
I haven’t been able to subscribe to communities I’m not already subscribed to using Sync, I usually go on the web interface.
If you want to search for already copied communities, you should search lemmit’s local communities. To request new ones, you have to post on !requests, but keep in mind that the bot is broken until its author updates it.
I think it’s the one sub that I miss that would lend itself well to having a bot repost them since you’re not supposed to contact the op anyway. I don’t know how to do bots and I think it would be an easy success if someone wants that.
I have contributed to a ton of (free) information that was helpful and didn’t have the heart to delete all my posts that I spent days/months doing. Is there an easy way to bring all those over here?
Well, you could ask the lemmy repost bot to make reposts of all of the subs you’ve posted here, on Lemmy, but ot only takes posts from today and maybe a few days back, reposts them here, and than just carries on reposting from that point on. It doesn’t actually repost retroactively.
Though you could probably speak to the dev that actually runs that instance, maybe he can make a bot mod that does the same, but with users and does it retroactively. It’s worth a shot IMO 🤷.
Check out !worldnews. The admin of lemmit.online has set up a bot that fetches reddit posts via RSS, making it much easier to make the switch and of course not getting any ads....
Where are all of the reddit refugees these days?

Is anyone else having trouble giving up Reddit due to content?

Does anyone know if creating a content-"sharing" bot for Lemmy(, from reddit subs and elsewhere,) would be illegal ?
There’s quite a few communities that i’m missing on Lemmy....
Would someone build a bot and sub that reposts best of reddit updates?

Is there an easy way to bring all my old technical posts from Reddit to Lemmy?

Are you replacing Reddit with Lenny?
This seems like a good place so far tbh
How did Lemmy.world become more popular than Lemmy.ml?
I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.
Manually Federate Instances (kbin.social)
I am trying to access [email protected] and it I cannot via kbin as I would need to in order to be able to make a post.
You can now get reddit posts on lemmy via RSS, without any ads ;)
