Any ideas of communities that we could reach out to suggest them to move to lemmy? (reddthat.com)

The only successful example I found the other day was https://old.reddit.com/r/FloatingIsFun/, now !FloatingIsFun@fedia.io

If a few other communities could move over there, that would help make the platform more active.

There is a banned subreddit that recently moved here (I won't mention it to avoid them getting raided, but if you browse All you probably know which one I'm talking about), that was very interesting, and some proof that the current tools (the websites, the mobile apps, the interfaces) could work for people outside of the usual "tech / Linux / FOSS" bubble.

What do you think?

/r/Columbus too. We tried with !Columbus@midwest.social and a few others, but they all died out after a few months.

To be real, the regulars at !FloatingIsFun@fedia.io are completely different from the regulars I had at /r/FloatingIsFun. I couldn't get most of them to follow me to the Fediverse, and the community I built on the Fediverse mostly benefited from the added exposure of a Lemmy bug that pinned all Kbin posts to the top of /new for two hours.
