Come to the Fediverse! - Fediverser Network
fediverser.network

The original projects meant to help finding out the Lemmy communities sub.rehab and redditmigration were not really kept up-to-date after the first wave of protests. To avoid bitrot and to make sure that the community can help keep this up to date, I’m launching today fediverser.network.

At the moment, it is a simple browser of subreddits and lists of recommended alternatives. It can also let users sign-in with their reddit credentials so that they can get a list of the mapped communities specific to their subscriptions.

There is a lot more to be done, as I want to use this tool to help me map out all the niche communities that are missing on Lemmy and eventually have a 1:1 map for those that want to leave reddit entirely.

    Oh wow, that is extremely important info missing from the post. So it’s a list of “recommended alternatives” for subreddits, except deliberately populated with bots instead of recommending the places where real people are?

    I’m sure there’s a use-case for this that I just can’t see, but it should probably be communicated better because your description (comparing this to sub.rehab etc) definitely suggests these are real communities and that’s pretty misleading.

      No. The list of recommendations will not be exclusive to mirrored subreddits. It’s just what I started with because this initial list is what I’ve been building for alien.top.

      The idea of crowdsourcing it is exactly to have multiple alternatives, but to keep the fediverser ones for those migrating from reddit.
