I’m sorry guys, I was too weak to resist (but at least I helped a bit with the join-lemmy.org banner)

    I thought I would, but I ended up just watching the Never Forget group on discord and just… not.

    Feels kinda sad. Place was actually a fun little yearly event. TheButton was fun in its own odd way, too.

    I will miss enjoying those. I did enjoy reddit. I wouldn’t be on lemmy now if I didn’t.

      @Makeshift I mean, after bringing us the critical updates, the lemmy devs could implement stuff like “the button” and “place” too but would it be the same

      Place had a five year then a year and a half gap, so I wouldn’t call it yearly yet

        Yes, but it was the one to have an encore.

        Doesn’t even need to be place specifically. I mentioned both because they were neat little random community events that only had meaning because users enjoyed making meaning of them.

        It’s still a fond little memory to call myself a non-presser, even if it means nothing. And to see the chaos of the original canvas, immortalized in one big glorious mess with each small area having a story to it.

        The short lived little social experiments were fun just to see people enjoying making something of nothing.
