Redditors migration is impossible if they're recommended hundreds of alternatives (see link) (lemmy.world)

Seeing sticky posts on r/RedditAlternatives like https://teddit.net/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1467a5s/

I don't see how anything can be coordinated when so many options are presented in a confusing way.

Of course, they don't have to choose Lemmy / kbin instances, but I'm worried that a lot of people will stay on Reddit given the inability to properly communicate alternatives.

(Bonus: most platforms listed here ( https://teddit.net/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/yttdlc/list_of_active_reddit_alternatives_v8/ ) are terrible and Lemmy is relegated to the "less active" section; furthermore only lemmy.ml is listed, instead of https://join-lemmy.org for example)

Perhaps, experienced users of the suggested website could create posts that recommend it or its alternatives and provide explanations on how they function. This would help people better understand and determine if they find it appealing. Like you said, a list doesn’t help that much.
