Even a huge subreddit like r/games (17 year old community with 1.1 million weekly visitors) is still heavily carried by a single poster, Turbostrider27

Keep working on your Fediverse communities!

my reasoning is people might feel self conscious frequently posting to a community, but this screenshot shows that even big communities do it and still get lots of people together (bots too of course, but also a lot of people)

I think it’s completely fine. Honestly, I got the idea you were going for instantly, and a Reddit community - being generally way larger than fedi comms - is probably the best vehicle to drive it home.

Plus I don’t think it’s practical, nor useful, to turn Reddit into the place that shall not be named here. That would feel especially awkward with the outrage generated every time a mention of lemmy.world is taken down over there.
