    Reddit is well structured to spur and better support larger scale migration, though, since subreddits are operated somewhat similarly to how Fediverse instances are run. They’re structured such that they have hegemons and formal “leadership”. If the mod teams of a reasonable number of medium sized active subreddits just decided to spin up their own lemmy or kbin instances, it would make fedi aggregators a real destination for Reddit folks overnight.

    This is different from Twitter, where communities were informal structures, and no one had any kind of editorial control. It’s way more structured.

    The key is to sell mods on it, rather than individual users.

      That’s a compelling point.

      an own instance would be amazing for sure! However its still even possible to just use an existing instance for the old subreddit / new comunity.
