With Apollo shutting down officially I’d like to post something to the pop communities of Reddit. I don’t want to come off as spammy - but more of a “Hey, we have an alternative over here and you are welcome to join.”
Most popheads/swifities so far have replied with “Why, it doesn’t change how I use it” and I’m trying to figure out some ways to make the Reddit change hit home a bit for them specifically.
Anyone want to give some examples of what I should say/post? I’ll link the post I have in the sidebar to help those who may want to join, and I’m expanding the server a bit today just to hopefully handle an influx.
In addition, any other subreddits I’d need to post to?
Edit: Posts are live -

Waiting on Moderator approval on the TaylorSwift one. Anywhere else?
Edit: Moderators removed the PopHeads post saying it was off topic
Thanks - @scrubbles
as far as reddit - for a lot of people ‘they’re coming’ is abstract and ‘they’re here’ is the only driver to action. this is a case where it’s good to be in the back of people’s memory, and it’s a matter of waiting for them to hit pain tolerance. for other concepts, like climate change, waiting for ‘they’re here’ is a more serious dilemma
That makes sense, I get the concept, how would you word that though?
Edit I get it now, I’m talking about how it’s already closing and that we’re already switching. It’s not coming in a week, we’ve already left
