I tried in 5 or 6 different subreddits. Different phrasing, sometimes not even outright saying the name, definitely not linking out. None of them made it through.

That’s probably the mod team rather than the site as a whole. /r/RedditAlternatives has regular discussions about Lemmy and the Fediverse, so at least that sub is ok

I have it linked in the subs I mod there. I welcome Reddit relieving me of duty. :)

Sure, but the average reddit-user doesn’t frequent /r/RedditAlternatives unless they’re looking for one.

The average reddit user isn’t indeed looking for an alternative, so they’re unlikely to welcome any suggestion anyway
Trust me, I’ve tried several times

Tbh I’m not sure the average Reddit user is who we want to attract here anyway. Not to be elitist, but there might be a benefit to at least some barrier to entry. From a bot/spam/troll perspective as well.
