Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    Instance birthday

    On 2 June we will celebrate 1 year of lemmy.nz! Anyone got ideas on how to celebrate?

      Woah, can’t believe it’s been an year already!

      For the anniversary day, maybe we could have a post showcasing a few highlights of our community over the past year, something like Spotify’s Wrapped, but for Lemmy - so maybe a highlight of the most upvoted posts/comments, most profilic posters, membership counts, major server changes and little victories (maybe share some of your experiences in keeping the ship afloat)?

        Nice idea! Any thoughts on presentation? A post with info, links, and screen shots would probably be easiest, but maybe we can do better?

        I’ll try to think of some major things that have happened in the last year.

        Looking back through old posts I’m feeling sad about all the cool people who have slowly dropped off over the year. But also all the ones who are still here so that’s cool!

          If you want to make it fancy we could do a presentation type thing, like via slidesgo.com or similar, but since this is on/for Lemmy, I think we should just keep it simple and make it a normal post.

            Hmm, maybe a combination of a post and video? I’ll see if I can work out how to make a video. Show some stuff from the past year, some graphs, etc.

        Mine says that too, on Lemmy-UI. Probably just switches to 1 yr when it gets close. 1 year (ish).
