All things Reddit

Like it or not, Reddit is still a big player in the internet game. Let's bring together the best of both worlds, shall we?

Greetings, fellow Lemmings! As the first members of this newly established community on Lemm.ee, we have the unique opportunity to shape its purpose and create something truly special. With Reddit currently experiencing chaos and users seeking refuge elsewhere, let's make this space our own haven.

In envisioning the direction of this community, we have a few ideas to get us started. Should we transform this space into a Reddit cemetery, a place to reminisce about the past glories of Reddit? We can gather old stories, share nostalgic posts, and celebrate the memorable moments that made Reddit what it once was.

Alternatively, perhaps we can focus on Reddit nostalgia and create a space where Lemmings can indulge in the cherished memories of their favorite subreddits. We can share screenshots, links, and stories about the communities we loved and the inside jokes that defined them.

But why limit ourselves to these options? Let's hear your thoughts and ideas on what this community should be. This is our chance to build a vibrant and supportive community that captures the spirit of Reddit's golden days.

Are you a content creator? Share your artwork, writing, or memes with your fellow Lemmings. Are you passionate about a specific topic? Let's foster discussions and share knowledge on a wide range of subjects, just as Reddit once did.

Remember, we are the pioneers of this new frontier, and together we can create a space that reflects our shared interests, nostalgia, and sense of community. So, comment below and let us know your suggestions, hopes, and aspirations for this Lemm.ee community. Welcome aboard, fellow Lemmings!

Well as far as "Lemmy welcoming committees" go, there are already quite a few from what I can tell. So I wouldn't invest time in that but it's up to you, of course. I mean, you're offering a community named "Reddit" and people won't be coming here for that anyways. Seems natural share Reddit-related info and news, at least to me. Otherwise you could have named the community something other than "Reddit" :) (e.g. "Lemmy Newcomers", "Reddit Refugees", etc.)

Just my 2 cents on that topic.

Personally, I can say that I'm sorely missing a central place for news on the Reddit situation/fallout. Some technology communities have been providing the news I'm looking for but this could be a more relevant source.
