That’s a good point. I guess given that a lot of work is already done, it could be a cool learning experience for those involved if nothing else.
If and when it gets shut down, that would be another way that Reddit enshittifies, and people will see that. Part of my suggestions are to prevent the service from being shut down. The more we dot our i’s and cross our t’s in good faith, the worse it will look if Reddit shuts it down.
Ultimately I don’t see this as helping Reddit but rather helping the people and communities that make our platforms great. Some communities have official Lemmy spaces, and others are just two groups of like-minded people that would want interconnectedness if they could get it.

Exactly. I am operating like is a war against Reddit who are taking the users and the communities hostage. I do not want to cause any harm to the users of Reddit, but I am sure not going to depend on having Reddit’s approval to do anything.
