    Of course Reddit doesn’t federate — even if they were willing to do it, what benefit would it be for any other service to federate with it?

    Reddit has a massive userbase, and it’s hard to overstate this impact in terms of even fairly large communities on Reddit, who have a user or two at most on Lemmy.

    Reddit doesn’t force you to use its app — the website remains freely accessible. I can’t understand why people want to get apps for every website they visit… do you need push notifications for Reddit or something?!

    Using the largest Lemmy instances is in many ways equal to Reddit at best.
