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.
I also think LARPers and Reddit has been demonizing the word decentralized, better stick with just Lemmy.
I just can’t get over the name. My head cannon is lemmy is the name of a lemur, and lemmy users are lemurs
Can you imagine if lemmy were to celebrate an achievement?? We cannot be having lemmyparties
In case you, or anyone else reading this, wants to now the actual reason behind the name Lemmy, it’s stated in the link below :)
