jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.
Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

They are literally developing the platform we are on. Sure, I don’t agree with their opinion at all, but it doesn’t mean I can’t respect their work.
Doing a pretty shit job at it.
I used to use reddit. Those devs made the same mistake, and I dont respect either.
Then develop it yourself.
Can you elaborate on what you mean?
Not listening to to community. We are the content creators on reddit. Reddit should have done as we asked. They threw us under the bus.
Lemmy devs dont listen to their community. Instance admins point out serious legal issues regarding moderation, and they say they don’t fix those bugs because user privacy doesn’t matter.
Reddit was literally co-founded by Aaron Swartz (RIP): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz
