Hi guys, I’ve got a Bluesky code to give away, and I figured some of you guys would like it. Just a few requirements:
- You must have been a member of pawb.social for at least two weeks.
- You must have commented or posted on something in pawb.social in the past two weeks. Doesn’t matter if you’re doing so after this post either, though hopefully you’ll keep being active.
- To be entered, you need to reply to this post (which will not count toward the past two weeks’ activity requirement).
I’ll be randomly picking someone after 48 hours, and I’ll likely delete this post after another 24. Best of luck!
Edit: It’s been 48 hours, and of the 3 people who commented, only one actually didn’t have Bluesky already, so DraconicNeo has been sent the code. I have to say the response has been surprising. I offered a free giveaway, and got the post downvoted to hell and nothing but negativity for it. I absolutely won’t be repeating this again. Screw deletion, I’d just as soon leave this up so the next person doesn’t try to make my mistake.
I get that people aren’t happy with Bluesky’s invite-only approach, or that they haven’t turned on federation yet. I’m not claiming it’s even a great platform; hell, they don’t even have support for gifs or private messages yet. I just had a code, and was hoping I’d brighten someone’s day by a chance to get it. Just seems Lemmy would rather have it buried.
@Kovukono Yeah it actually kind of sucks that people were so hostile towards it, honestly my first comment was more meant to be a joke (especially since I’m replying on Mastodon), but I guess it also wasn’t as much of a joke as I thought considering how many people tried to bury the post.
