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
Some instances that are joining in:
Join the Lemmy Community
!canvas@toast.ooo
Join the Matrix Space
#lemmy-canvas:matrix.org
…
If the plan was to provide evidence for the idea that Lemmy is a second-rate, tryhard copycat, well done!
This community is perfectly capable of generating its own traditions without trying to force it… and the fact that reddit recently tried to use r/Place to distract from the recent controversy makes this imitation that much sadder. If you’re going to crib something, at least go for something that hasn’t been touched for awhile.
