I havenโt seen Reddit give so much attention to the Fediverse in a long time. Maybe we can help them and answer some questions.

Was reading through the thread and holy shit I swear half the comments are anti fediverse propaganda.
I wonder how long till the post gets removed.
Edit: would it be immoral for me to mass bot the thread with AI powered pro fediverse propaganda?
Aside from what Blaze mentioned, thatโs also not really the kind of publicity that we want. Better to just respond to individual users and encourage them to try Lemmy out.
We should really avoid antromorphizing non-humans. Call them bots, like most of them probably are.
In some spaces, that term is becoming really dehumanizing. People use โbotโ to label anything they disagree with.

You can try, but youโll probably get flagged
U would be surprised what u can do with an account list a proxy list and a tor connection.
why not, ik a lot of ppl are upset with reddit rnow and they prob think lemmy isnt ready, I thought it was bad because of old preconceptions and I never heard about it on reddit, only after I got banned from reddit did I even see that lemmy still existed, had a userbase, and was running without issues now
they got me with the propoganda forsure, it seemed complicated was actually super simple, every comment will act like its so hard to swap over or signup when once you do look it up you immediately see why its better at its core
I never played WoW or anything like that, but arenโt there several WoW servers and you have to decide which one to be on when you start the game? People managed that.
explaining the fediverse would be you join different servers but can still play together?

Some comments are suspiciously skeptical. If they were this skeptical before joining then they never wouldโve joined Reddit lol. Someone just tried to tell me that the report button on Lemmy doesnโt do anything.
And people talking about bots too lol Reddit will literally repost a 1 year old post with identical title and copy-paste the top 100 comments from the original too, talk about bots! And they arenโt labeled as bots! At least bots here are labeled and you can hide them all instantly.
And then they ask for extreme details on how everything works and try to become a master at it before even signing up. Is that how they signed up for Reddit and Discord? I doubt it.
No way these people were that closed-minded and stubborn when they were signing up for Reddit.
