Episode 42: Talking 1 Million Members with r/Fantasy

The r/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.
