If they've heard of Lemmy then it's probably the Tankie connection that's putting them off. If.
Guessing Kbin/Mbin is also either unheard of or tainted by association.
Or it could just be: "But why male models not Reddit?"

which is hilarious because this website still brews lukewarm moderate takes and there’s like, what, one tankie instance?
Eh, it’s quite leftist here and VERY atheistic but honestly I’ve seen more insane takes come out of Reddit. Here there is reason and sense to those takes, as well as substance.
Strange. Lemmy was the real entry point for me to enter the Fediverse.

One reason is reddit is still much lower in the public consciousness, compared to Instagram, which is effectively the biggest social media nowadays.
