Hi all!
I used to be a daily r/selfhosted lurker and a bit active user.
Since the Reddit saga I thought that r/selfhosted would be one of the first and bigger community to move to Lemmy due to the IT knowledge of all of their users and the sensitivity about self host/privacy/open source, but I see that not only the community is still all there, but it’s rising. :(
That really makes me sad.
How can we convince the mods there to move people here?
Is it allowed to talk about Lemmy on Reddit or do we risk of being banned?
I’d prefer if we stopped bringing up Reddit altogether. We no longer use the platform, we should be happy with what we have here instead of constantly peeping into the neighbor’s garden.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

Stop obsessing about Reddit and create a content on Lemmy instead. People will come once they see there’s enough activity here.
Exactly. Chill out. It’s not a competition.
Just hang out and enjoy the community.
This is the third ng. Fuck reddit. Just post and it’s all G
The OP has double the posts you do?
It’s still a correct statement

Yah but that seems to be what lemmy is turning out to be and I don’t see it being sustainable.
It’s not an obsession! Simply if all the good poster/commenter that are there would come here, this place would be better!
I am not a good boi?
Be the change you want to see.
You thought they were the leaders. They’re the followers, staying near the crowd.
Building communities is hard and takes time.
