jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.
Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

I do use all the ML alternatives, but engagement is notably lower. I almost wish LW would just bite the bullet and defederate from ML.
Yeah, maybe more like top 100 for hexbear. I am on mobile too.
Yes, I guess for tech people the political stances are irrelevant, they just want the most active communities
Having access to the devs via !lemmy@lemmy.ml and !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml is probably why
Everyone should defederate from that toxic shithole. It serves no purpose that isn’t duplicated elsewhere only without the heavy-handed admin/mod team.
I get the feeling that even if you got what you wanted, you would still complain about .ml
Right now, you could block .ml personally. Have you blocked .ml?
I have not, no. There are still some technology communities that are only present on ML. Outside of those, I do not interact with ML.
And what’s with your prima donna attitude? What exactly is the problem with calling out an instance run by genocide white-washing tankie scum?
I really don’t understand why they won’t, they did it with lemmygrad and hexbear but with .ml they wanna take this kid glove approach. The best theory I got is they don’t want to because of the more active communities on there ig
Having access to the devs via !lemmy@lemmy.ml and !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml is probably why
