We’re expecting a giant influx of users when the popular workaround, old.reddit.com (perhaps with RES to make it less outdated), inevitably gets shut down. Please try to make Lemmy a worthwile space in the meantime so that they stay!
I think Lemmy is and will be quite good at remaining civil because the questionable content makers use their own instances and get defederated. The most edgy community federated with the main cluster I found is !funhole@lemmy.sdf.org. It features cryptic posts that presumably make sense if you engage in the decentralized (IRC? Telnet??) discourse channels of sdf.org and some appear to be pro-fascist depending on how you interpret the questionable veil of sarcasm. I don’t think it’s serious enough to consider defederation because the worst ones get massively downvoted anyway.
Don’t forget the Rule 34 manga and rhetoric of not sexualising anything. Also the college kid Marxists… and Linux cults… And figuring out liberalism and “American liberals” are polar opposites. Basically avoid .ml And obviously don’t let anyone know your skin colour, gender, or sexual preferences if they’re vanilla. And support all war that’s against Russia. I think that’s it- Oh, and don’t reply to the same person more than twice in a thread.

Reddit is already rate-limiting old.reddit.com traffic. There are already few threads about it.
And please actively remind people to remain civil. We can be better than Reddit in so many ways. I believe!

As long as they’re fans of trans positive meme dumps and endless half-serious slap fights about distros, they’ll feel right at home.
They won’t even notice anything changed

Apart from that, they’ll feel right at home.

You forgot to mention the furry porn… so much furry porn…
