        I mean they just did. It’s an attempt to clone Reddit.

          Was a thing long before Reddit, so no it isn’t really.

            Putting a cake icon next to a user on their cake day was before Reddit? Never knew.

              Does lemmy display it beside the user? Or only on their page? I really don’t know.

              And I’m sure some website did something similar before Reddit, didn’t neopets signify your creation date or something?

              Nothing is really a unique idea, it’s all a copy of mashup of other things. What’s cake to one person is a star to another app.

      What are you doing on Lemmy? I thought Lemmy is Reddit alternative!

      Agreed. This is the last thing we need here. Threads full of cake day bullshit was do fucking annoying.
