Yes, I occasionally crosspost to Reddit (which is as far as my usage goes) and I’m using these watermarks as a subtle way of “showing flag”.
My thinking being, that if I’m posting to Reddit as well why not show them that we are still here because back when r/place happened, I tried to win some Redditors over to feature their Lemmy sibling communities and a lot of replies I got were, that we wouldn’t hold and eventually return back and some thought we’d already returned.
And since the Lemmy devs / server owners don’t actively advertise I think it’s on us to do so if we want to get some (hopefully sympathetic) users to give this a chance.
