Hmm, seems like the way to conform with this - is to post clear instructions on how to open a lemmy account and access the relevant community here instead - then the community will really belong to themselves, right?

(If a move to lemmy is going to work, we need to make sure that clear instructions are provided, and there is an easy map of existing subreddits over to new lemmy communities/channels.

Yeah, I think I'll prefer the app over a website - though both seem pretty similar in features and interface.

I am not loving the process of searching out different communities, and having to book mark them, occasionally waiting for approval to join etc - but I guess it kinda has to be that way initially to get started (not too dissimilar to discord).

I have got wonder about commmity fracture as people move off reddit, but time will have to tell with that one.
