I wish all the subs would move to Lemmy. There are a few off the top of my head that SHOULD be pushed to move sooner: /r/SocialEngineering, /r/HowToHack, /r/MartialArts, /r/Photoshop, and /r/meetup should all be here ASAP.

So should other subs, but those ones are particularly awesome and I wanna get them to come here ASAP.

Obviously, there are thousands of subs that need to move to Lemmy but those are some of my favs that I don't think are here yet.

Also, when will MOST subs be on Lemmy?

I'm impatient. I want the new, up and coming, Reddit alternative with privacy to become popular NOW.

From what I've seen around some subs moved and continued its existence, while other didn't become active and in some cases people just snatched names of subs on most active instances expecting probably that people just flock in. Some subs attended the protests and returned to the usual activity but it seems that majority didn't bother. Small number moved to discord or were there already extending community activity.

Fediverse seems to be attractive to people who are both consuming and providing content and who are also engaged in technology to the particular degree. Majority obviously doesn't give a single flying fuck about what happen to reddit by badluckhuffman hands and just waited till blackout will be over.

I agree. I would like Lemmy to thrive and be vibrant but not too easily accessible to the masses, to avoid another "Eternal September".

Some things are better left on Reddit.

I... think you might need to accept at least a late-August in order to bring in certain kinds of content. Some interest groups aren't here because the userbase is not yet wide enough to include them, so in order to get a broad range of non-tech content, a slice of "the masses" are going to need to come in. You absolutely can protect your own spaces from people you don't want there, though.

People don't have to be actually tech people now, they just have to be comfortable with the fact that a lot of the people on here are tech people, and a lot of the conversations assume a high level of technical expertise. I'm in that "I don't know what y'all are talking about, but I'm cool with it" crowd, and there are definitely communities where I would probably be okay even if I had a lower tech tolerance. I think we're relatively close to being able to invite non-tech people, though it will mean a bit of a culture shift in communities that are not explicitly tech-focused.
