Enjoy, feddit.de is a great instance

Lemmyverse.net show both communities: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=watchreddit

It probably didn't show up in the first place it only has 66 subscribers, and probably none on SJW.

About your second point, you indeed have to promote your community, using !newcommunities@lemmy.world, or related communities. This works quite well usually.

I will add that in your case, people knew about your community as you posted in other communities, but as discussed then, people seemed happy with the existing Reddit-focused communities.

Interesting point.

On the other side, as LW is more cautious about updates, that might have suggested some users to switch to instances that were more up-to-date.

But indeed I agree that people should be more spread, having 25% of Lemmy on one instance is less than ideal: https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy

19.0 and 19.1 mostly, 19.2 fixed the issues.

The web alternative interfaces Photon and Alexandrite allow it: https://lemmyapps.netlify.app/

Your instance might have those accessible directly (for instance LW has https://p.lemmy.world/)

You can do it from version 19.X, no? I just did it the other day.

Having to re-do all your subscriptions,

You can mitigate that by exporting your settings and keeping them as a backup. That's one of the nice features that 19.X brought

Ah, right, you might expect a repo link indeed

Hello,

Sounds promising, but be ready to get criticised for choosing Discord

In simple terms the idea starts from a common praise of the fediverse … that it enables posting between Twitter and Reddit and that it is open. Well, how about we build Reddit and Twitter clones just with FOSS, open APIs and cross posting features?

Isn't that opening the door for future enshittification? Like as soon as Lemmy/Mastodon reach 100k users, a big corporation buys the only instances (as there is no federation in this scenario) to the admins, and turn it into a corporate product? What's preventing that without federation?

Lots of angry comments in the post announcing Sublinks in this community, mostly criticizing Java choice

Hello,

Isn't the original post on this community already?
