Hey all,

I’ve got an exciting thing to announce today, Canvas — Lemmy’s r/Place!

We need to get our own traditions over here in the Threadiverse, why not start off with our own r/Place

This weekend, we will open up a canvas to all Lemmy users, each user will be able to place 1 pixel every minute. This event will last 72 hours, starting midnight EST on the 4th and ending at 11:59pm EST on the 6th

We need to get our own traditions over here in the Threadiverse, why not start off with another platform's tradition

Does it count as a new tradition if we don't poop all weekend?

Good plan. You're on. You go first.

Oh no you're not getting me to poop first that easy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

The real question is who poop last.

Have you ever read a single history book? Humans are not very creative. All traditions are copying the tribe next door's tradition with a little twist. That's just how culture works.

The age old tradition of cultural appropriation.

This, plus something is better than nothing! Also nobody's saying we can't do anything else later. Nothing wrong with taking something tried and tested to get the ball rolling

Where’s the twist?

couldn't be worse than having cloudflare verification on a can of beans

Don't knock our fucking traditions, Carl
