Reddit has decided to run another edition of r/place in mid July for some unimaginable reason.

It seems to me that it would be stupid to not at least attempt to advertise for Lemmy given the perfect opportunity. Many have expressed concerns about giving reddit more traffic, but a few thousand users is less than a rounding error to reddit. However, getting a few thousand more redditors to move to Lemmy would be great for us.

Hopefully I can get a few sh.itheads to help in this noble endeavor. If not, at least I tried.

I am waiting until I have time to address it appropriately. Suffice it to say there is a mod on lemmy.world who will be hearing from me soon enough. I saw how everything went down and it was not cool.

The real action is happening on the Matrix chat anyway. Matrix is the fediverse version of Discord.

We've just gotten wiped for the second time. This time it was Belgium. The first was Italy. But we are gearing up for a third attempt tomorrow when the canvas expands

That was close to our furthest extent before Belgium exterminated everything ๐Ÿซ
