I moved herr, just to different communities.
In think the key to helping those stuck in the Reddit world is to cross post Lemmy/kbin links to Reddit. You can even get any url to a post via the share feature on the apps. Let’s make them aware there is a place where they are not just making money more money.
You could cross post to Lemmy and then put a link in the Reddit thread that says something like: "for the real conversation, the way Reddit used to be, come to Lemmy"
That might get Reddit accounts banned though 😅
What sort of communities are you looking for, OP? Maybe we can give you a hand getting settled in.
Hey there, also calling back from kbin.social as some of the commenters in this mini-raft.
Although most of the politics posts can be a bit of an eyesore to most of us here, I found comfort in this instance, even going so far as to establish some new mags for my ephemeral interests, one for the musico-archivist Derivakat herself, of which I have grown tired of continually building as my college era began to set in, up until this point.
As for private small-group convos, I'm also mulling moving on to revolt.chat along with a few others in my own Discord server if ever its fires start blazing forth.
Present
I'm not technically a refugee as I'm happy to use both websites, but I'm here.
Heretic!

I'm primarily on my Blahaj account but I'm currently using one of my alts as Jerboa is crashing when I try to log into my Beehaw account (which requires me to clear the app storage to switch accounts) and Blahaj is currently having server issues again.
Personally I dig the vibes of the Blahaj folks
Mostly I sub to communities all over the fediverse, though this alt is a bit more bare as I mostly keep them separated in terms of where I interact.
Still here my man
still here
