While I sincerely hope so, possibly unpopular opinion… Lemmy will have to offer a lot more than “Not Reddit”. It’ll have to build up as a primary destination for a lot of “content of substance” and culture around creating and nurturing it (just cross posting from Reddit will not cut it). It may have to offer communities and opportunities Reddit bans or suppresses, although there should be some red lines there. And, like all Federated technologies, it will have to actively work to reduce friction for potential users.
