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.

... ,but I was never tempted to go back because the quality is so fucking bad compared to Lemmy.

This ☝️. Even the memes, which I thought would be a lot worse, surprised me a lot, like really high quality and by people that mostly know meme history.

Just high quality content all around. Not a lot of it, but high quality.

Well, I'm not a woman... thus the opposite has to be true 😂... though in this day and age, that could also not be entirely true as well, lol 😂.

Just kidding, nothing against LGBTQ+ folks 🖖 ☺️.

That's what I had in mind with my comment.
