    When I’m talking about a small community, I’m talking about like my own Discord with only ~200 members, but the communities you’re talking about are WAY bigger

    You mentioned r/Warframe, that has 660,481 followers

    r/risa has 28,568 followers

    startrek.website has 3k users

    !risa@startrek.website has 6.53k subscribers

    These are all much much bigger than what I meant by small communities, and I don’t think my Discord community would be active on Reddit either.

    But yes you are correct, another similar success story is lemdro.id and they did the same thing where the mods of r/Android pushed people to that Lemmy instance and they still have a link in the sidebar
