Anyone who still has an account there, I'd encourage you to use it to gently promote your favourite Fediverse website. There are a significant number of people asking about Reddit alternatives the last couple of days, and sending people directly to a specific suggested site (rather than just saying something like "Lemmy") is more likely to get people to come over and check things out.

It's a shame there's not some big social engagement event going on here right now. Anyone want to start some kind of viral shitpostery?

They auto remove and ban anyone who mentions the fediverse. Or maybe they’ve backtracked on that?

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 2 points 16 hours ago

They don't. Not anymore, at least, if that was a thing. I've been mentioning the Fediverse there for years. Comments generally get reasonably high views, but low engagement because people on established platforms rarely want to do anything to fix their issues.

Can we offer you some powdered milk in these trying times?
