I’ll only go there when this place is having maintenance. Since it seems to coincide with my morning browsing session.

It’s join-lemmy.org… .com leads to nowhere.

Generating views, traffic and content for Reddit is a hopeless way to try to negatively impact Reddit.

Spend that time creating and participating in content here to drive change.

I disagree. The views during /r/place are negligible. Advertising Lemmy and stealing their users: priceless.

Every pixel is another +1 interaction on the site to pump their engagement numbers. Might not be direct views, but they are using r/place to offset the audience engagement losses over the monthly average. Spez is buying time before the summaries hit the board’s desks.

I think so. The fact they did this almost certainly knowing exactly what would be made makes it clear. They did this for pure engagement numbers. The saying used to be “Any publicity is good publicity”, now it seems it’s more like “Any engagement is good engagement”.

Yeah, let’s get people to come here by not telling them about it. Solid plan.
