Your Karma points will soon be tokens ♥https://t.co/FXdEbeynphThink- community-based decisions. - forking subreddits in disagreements. And all of this without even losing your community points?It's like moving from fb to Twitter without having to rebuild your followers.— Rahul 🔊🦇 (@iamRahul20x) November 3, 2021
I mean you said it yourself that it's existed for years, so the question is when and what will cause users to shift into federated platforms. One thing that would help is engagement, and I find it problematic that one of the most active candidates for federation (this place) is not capable of federation. This is absolutely not meant to be pointed criticism of the site devs, but I think that there are ways to resolve this.
Next step would be to go to /r/Genzedong and /r/C@ and wherever and encourage them to move to their own Lemmy instances with their own moderation so they can post alongside us. Once the more "political" subreddits and wherever have early-adopted, you just need to have a place to funnel in the rest of the Reddit libs, since corporate social media is doomed to eventually cannibalize itself.
