I modified a image I saw going around last year on Global Switch Day https://old.reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comments/1ijmkc0/make_the_switch_away_from_meta/

Perhaps we could use it to make people aware of Reddit alternatives etc. If you can imporve upon the image please do so, and feel free to use it.

I just threw it together in KolourPaint in a few min.

It makes sense. There are a lot of topics that just cant be discussed and communities that can't exist in the fediverse. Mma for example couldn't move here its to right wing even removing the politics. Even if it was restricted to its own instance it would be defederated. That sucks, I like that fediverse culture is staunchly anti "bad" stuff but i wish there was more tolerance for "bad" instances as long as they kept that behaviour to their own instance.
