Are we doing anything interesting for the celebration?
Why is that a thing?
Same energy as a store giving me a birthday email.
You must be fun at parties.
Birthday parties to be precise.
Are these birthday parties where we sit around selling each other the latest MLM garbage
Wow it’s almost been a year already?
Maybe it could be specific to each user?
Few ideas
-
a community for people to post in on their cake day, where they can comment on some aspect of their life that’s improved in the last year / something they’re grateful for
-
if you come across a cake day account, pop into their history and comment on something you find interesting
The latter sounds great!
Note to self—don’t make any comments on cake day
-
I was wondering that, actually. Many instances predate the Rexodus, but a lot of them sprung up around the same time as a result of that.
Trying to think of some way to celebrate on my instance. Maybe a birthday hat on my site icon for the day? lol
Replace the website with a picture of beans.
On second thought, don’t do that
I’ve seen the reference a lot, but I don’t understand it. At this point, I’m too afraid to ask. lol
Behold!
I assume I will forget to make myself a cakeday meme like I did every year I was on Reddit. Seems appropriate as a celebration.
Everyone should post beans
Lemmings welcoming another Rexxitor, circa June 2023.
And not poop for 3 days
How soon we forget Lemmy’s first big meme.
3 days, no poop.
You want beans? I’ll give you all the beans you can handle…
Wait a minute…
Oh, how about that? I say we get drunk. Day drink! Day drink and post stupidly!
I totally forgot Ming-Na Wen was in that.
I didn’t even recognize her, but as soon as I heard her voice it was clear. :-)
Act natural. Got it.
How about nothing? The happy cake day comments were even more annoying than “this” comments
This.
Ah, complaining about the culture of the site was my favorite part of reddit culture
this place isn’t what it used to be
This
Canvas event?
Mine’s June 13th. One more month and I won’t have posted anything on reddit for a full year.
Toss a coin to your server. Oh community of plenty.
Let’s name it a Beans Day instead of a Cake Day.
i think you’re onto something
Yesss
Let’s let Reddit Things die with Reddit.
Jehovah’s Witness tier argument
Went to look and you’re right, June 14, the exact day Boost for reddit stoped working. Now ai use boost for lemmy! :)
Shucks, I originally joined beehaw but they were blocking too many sites, and switched on September. Ruined my true cake day
That’s okay, changing instances at least once is part of the experience
How about denim day? Bean jean day? Thigh high day? Cake is a lie, let’s celebrate real linux twinks.
