I really dont think there is a need to push people on lemmy anymore. In terms of user experience of lemmy still isn't as good as Reddit (although not by much imo). I think the best thing would be to focus on keeping everyone here, improving UX, and when the next Reddit crisis comes and people look for alternatives we will be ready and better than reddit. More people will stay that way.

My desktop Lemme states that there's only 1 subscriber to this community. I assume that's incorrect and/or a bug or just growing pains for Lemme?
It took me a few days to finally get subscribed to this. I finally followed the instructions correctly to find this community using the search feature. It sure would be nice to move away from Reddit, especially after July 1st.
Lemmy is an interesting concept but as others have said, it's quite unpolished at the moment. It has potential. The whole "fediverse" thing is somewhat confusing to me and I imagine this site being off-putting to those who aren't as into tech.
