This post is inspired by a conversation I had with another user earlier that, after some reflection, raised an interesting point.

When telling a user about Lemmy, trying to bring them into the fold if you will, what would be the best go to link? Think of reddit.com/r/all, but for Lemmy.

In theory, any instance will work as long as it has a large enough user base to have people subscribed to other large isntances, but having a solid landing page to point new users towards definitely has some merit.

Thoughts?

    100% agreed. as someone that has been meaning to jump into the fediverse since the Twitter debacle, I was paralyzed by choosing an initial Mastadon server. If you want lemmy/kbin to grow, just link them directly to the best matched instance you can find for them.
