Anyone well known who wants to speak out about what’s been happening on reddit? Louis Rossmann? Apollo dev? John Oliver (one can dream)… or maybe former Reddit mods who were kicked out?

Anyone who has a story and who understands they’d have a massive impact by giving an exclusive AMA on a Lemmy or Kbin instance.

This could be announced a few days in advance to make sure all remote instances follow the AMA community.

    This is far too premature.

    AMA is a high amount of trust in the moderation team. You build trust by having assurances that the AMA hosts have done their research and prove that the person is who they say they are.

    Where we need to start is: who around here is even capable of hosting AMAs? Are they willing to host AMAs to build a community/subreddit’s trust? Etc. etc.

        Yeah I think there’s a lot of value in hearing from non-celebrities and to be honest, people being here because they want to be rather than they’re promoting something is just more interesting.

        I’d totally love that! Hearing the personal experiences of “Normal” (for lack of a better word) people would be awesome! The vast differences in the lives that people lead is fascinating

      I think if they just write something on another social media like twitter, that would be enough proof and easily doable. E.g. John Oliver posted pictures for reddit days ago. I know getting him would be very… far fetched, but the general concept seems doable.
