Let me start by thanking everyone that has joined https://fediverser.network and the ones who are already helping to categorize and create a map between subreddits and the recommended Lemmy alternatives. Y’all are amazing and I hope we can keep it up.

To keep in mind that the main goal of this whole project is to help people on reddit to migrate quickly and effortlessly to Lemmy, I was thinking on what could be done once we have the majority of the niche subreddits mapped out. I thought about the idea of creating “Community Ambassadors”, which would be basically people interested in “turning” other redditors from their specific communities to Lemmy.

Basically that would require you to signup to Fediverser to indicate what community you are focusing on and how many people you are willing to reach out per day. The system could then collect the top posts of that subreddit every day and let you trigger a (custom, personalized) DM to the people telling them about the alternative Lemmy community that exists with a link to alien.top’s portal to make one-click migration.

    To be fair, just telling people that Lemmy has Sync, Boost versions and Infinity and Apollo forks is enough to have them interested

      Yeah, and the one thing that I’m hoping to add soon is a content section to the Fediverser site with the most straightforward way possible to migrate:

      1. Go to alien.top’s portal
      2. Sign-in with reddit
      3. Show them the link to download their favorite client alongside with initial credentials.
      4. Realize that that they are already subscribed to all the subreddits they are used to follow.
      5. Profit.
