Reddit has decided to run another edition of r/place in mid July for some unimaginable reason.

It seems to me that it would be stupid to not at least attempt to advertise for Lemmy given the perfect opportunity. Many have expressed concerns about giving reddit more traffic, but a few thousand users is less than a rounding error to reddit. However, getting a few thousand more redditors to move to Lemmy would be great for us.

Hopefully I can get a few sh.itheads to help in this noble endeavor. If not, at least I tried.

      Why would they raid us when we are in agreement? Redditors hate the API changes just as much as us, I’m not sure why you think they would be hostile to Lemmy. After all, most of us were redditors a few weeks ago and we were open to the idea of Lemmy. There’s got to be more people over there that are on the verge of leaving but just need a little push

          You’re mistaken, this is just a random design I pulled from another group. We don’t have any design, I was hoping somebody would step up and make one.

          I never asked you to make a reddit account. But please, let go of reddit and let the Lemmy wash over you
