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.
“Redditors” are not a monolithic entity. There are huge swaths of their user base that just don’t give a shit. And by huge I mean massive, like probably tens to hundreds of millions of users who are happy with the official app (🤢🤮) and won’t budge no matter what we say.
Plus, have you ever tried to coordinate something this large on r/place? Good fucking luck lol. Something this large simply will never get made. Drop the tag line and maybe you have a chance, maybe. I don’t even have a reddit account anymore and I sure as fuck won’t make one just to play into this user activity trap.
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
