If you are already spending time on reddit, and you see posts from people who are having a hard time with the atmosphere on reddit and would have a better time of it here, try messaging them to let them know what the alternatives are. If you want to be more proactive, note that you can use removeddit to see deleted comments. This is a quick way to find messages from people who might want to hear! For example, https://www.removeddit.com/r/PCOS/comments/hmlhjc/rpcos_is_an_inclusive_community/

In a way it is "hiding away", but when the hiding place is a bustling and pleasant community, more people will find it by word of mouth etc. Many people only put up with toxic environments of reddit, twitter et al, because of the amount of traffic they receive.

I just learned that Firefox users must disable "enhanced tracking protection" on removeddit for it to work. Hope this helps someone.
