Could we get all the former subreddit mods who migrated to lemmy/kbin to unite and make some promo for lemmy/kbin on /r/place?

It could so easily be manipulated by Reddit in their favour - I can just imagine admins fixing themselves extra pixels so our areas get mysteriously vandalised. It’s their game and their rules I think it’s best to just stay out of it.

They they totally did this last time, and for something dumb too. Every post calling them out was also removed.

I believe it was this cat:

see this video or this post for more.

admin Chtorrr was the one using his power (to keep the canvas “safe for everyone”) to draw a cat.

Yeah this whole thing just feels like a huge trap for them to try and lure people back in. “Hey remember how fun r/place was? We’re doing it again. Come on back! Please clap.”

the prevailing opinion seems to be that we should promo “fuck spez” and it is already underway 😆

While I wholeheartedly concur with the message, I am not sure that this is effective. Frankly I would happily accept thousands of people fighting to write “fuck marsokod” over a an image if that meant propping my shares by a few millions ahead of an IPO.

I think we should write “fediverse” next to the Never forget 3rd party apps box.

I think they’re doing fine as is. We’ll just drive more traffic to reddit if people on here who haven’t joined yet start participating. The fact that they also force you to use the official app and new.reddit to see it (and probably participate too) makes it worse. I only browse the site using old.reddit so that’s already a no for me.

I don’t know this would work. Right now, I’m using my pixels to add more fuck spez. I suggest you do too. Anything more coordinated than that would require fishing people out from every site they scattered to. We’re still pretty small.

nope… I’m certainly not participating in an act to harass people on the internet, not even /u/spez.

Hmm. I see it as a failure of his own responsibilities. To each their own, I guess. The power imbalance is certainly going his way. Otherwise, it could be argued that his being shat on in the ama was problematic? It’s a short message that encompasses discontentment pretty broadly. I think leaders need to be held accountable. To me, this is the equivalent of saying “fuck macron” or something, which is something me and a lot of other people do on a semi-regular basis. But behind it is solid criticism, and it’s a shorthand for protesting being ignored, silenced, or denied democracy.
