jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.

Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Same honestly. I never discussed politics on Reddit, but it's all the content that's here. Partly why I don't recommend it to anyone i know who uses Reddit. Most content just isn't normie-friendly here.

It’s so depressing and aggressive, honestly. I can’t do that to my friends who don’t do that already.

Have you been on Reddit lately? It's insanely depressing and aggressive, too. Even more so in my opinion. I used to be reddit addicted but it's so bot infested, mean-spirited, and kind of vapid and shallow that I get bored after the first page or two. Lemmy still has a long way to go but I've been having more fun and interesting conversations on here.
