Depends. I specifically targeted the users saying things like “omg, Reddit is dead. RIP. Where shall we go now?” And “If there were an alternative I’d switch in a heartbeat” or “that’s it, I’m leaving. This was my last straw”. Basically users that genuinely sounded to me like they were looking for something. Not that they ever got to see my response.
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.
