42: Talking 1 Million Members with r/Fantasy
The fantasy subreddit at fantasy.reddit.com is one of the largest—if not the largest—online speculative fiction communities in the world. It recently surpassed one million subscribers and provides a place for readers, writers, and fans of all speculative media to gather and discuss the genre they love.
Joining us today are three of the r/Fantasy moderators:
- Lisa (/u/lrich1024)
- Megan (/u/Megan_Dawn)
- Wish (/u/wishforagiraffe)
We talk about the origins of r/Fantasy and how it impacts the broader industry, how readers and authors can get the most out of the community, and how to moderate a massive online forum with over a million members.
You can contact the r/Fantasy moderators by messaging them through modmail or through Twitter as @Reddit_Fantasy.
