jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.

Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Unfortunately, .ml is a default instance and the main devs instance, what happens there reflects on all of us

To me, the only solution to this is to do a hard fork. Take the code (It's AGPL), rename it if Lemmy is trademarked, and encourage admins to use it and contributors to target it. Maybe start a non-profit or LLC while we're at it.

To be honest, at this point forking the jointhefediverse website would probably be easier

This seems like the better idea and way easier lol.
