Efforts ought to be focused more on redirecting people to / advertising Lemmy. Any entailed increase in DAUs for Reddit would be, ultimately, temporary.

We tried, but even that was heavily resisted like the traffic of twenty people is going to make a difference to anyone

Thank you for your service. Is this still ongoing somewhere? Also, looks like the .ml domains are back up again!
