People follow the path of least resistance and right now signing up to reddit is still that. Give a link to 1 of 10 or so general lemmy instances at the home page, let people sign up and explore. Offer a few links to some deeper understanding stuff for those who want it.
The couple of people I've tried to get to migrate get hit with what they feel is a wall of text trying to understand what the fediverse is, and they're just straight up not interested in investing any time in this when they can still just easily log into reddit and be on their* way.
Yep, true. I have all faith in the community to upend reddit in record speed. The awesomeness of the internet and it flowing where it will flow is just too good. Today someone pointed me to this proxy to transform an instance into a reddit UI.

(replace vlemmy.net with another instance to achieve the same)
This is why I like the internet so, so much. In the end, it will find a way :-)
