We're going to need to participate on normie platforms like reddit in order to get more users & content here. We're also going to want to have a place on reddit (and elsewhere) where some of our content can thrive and become more accessible.

Apparently, Facebook is already marking our URL as spam. I'd imagine reddit will follow if not already. So we can't just dump links onto every marginally left-wing space.

Let this be a thread to spitball some ideas.

    Are there archives of the old subs that contain reddit usernames? We could just divide up mass DMing old users with a link (being careful enough to avoid being marked as spam). I would imagine there's a lot of the original sub that has no clue we exist here now.

    ...Or make a lefty subreddit with our rehosted content, and an automoderator that DMs with a link here upon subscribing. Maybe see if mods of other lefty subs would be interested in doing the same.
