Hmm, probably so. Another reason not to have a giant collective art project yet.

I think it would be wildly different.
Maybe it would be a space where users can straight up post pictures and move them around in a large space. Not pixel by pixel, but a whole image at a time, in a space big enough to fit thousands of pictures.
Maybe it would be a collection of symbols and flags where users add a dot below what they identify with.
Maybe it would be a shared drawing canvas, where users can do freehand lines, outlines, and fill with colors like MS Paint, but all at once and over each other. Basically an internet graffiti wall. To align with the ideas of Lemmy, it would be possible to “wall off” off bits of the greater canvas, and block the rest of the users so that only one community/magazine /server can draw on that space, while any unclaimed area stays wide open for anyone.
Maybe it would not exist at all, because the whole mentality of the Fediverse might not support enough collective expression.
It starts like that and then the people running scripts and other power players take over
And widely known. Once it’s started, most people know what you’re going for.
I think this is a good thing. This place is a gem that is hard to find and not fitting for everyone.
It would be news, and even harder to believe as real news.
Yeah, I’m having trouble seeing this as real news.

Agreed. The tribe mindset on display shows me how users who love reddit as it is are not a good fit for the Fediverse. Maybe less advertising to that crowd is a good thing.
Signal with 2 people who actually moved there with me, standard messages app that came with Samsung for most people, and Facebook Messenger Lite for anything that works better there, or contacting people who I’m not close enough with to get their phone number.
Not interested in learning
Complains constantly
Wants things for free
Doesn’t deserve your help in this area.
If there can be a consensus between switching to lemm.ee or Kbin, I’d love to lend my pixel to either of those.
I think if a thing like Place were made for Lemmy, it would need to be so different to fit the values of the Fediverse that it would need a new name. Different rules, different way of interaction, different output.
I use it kind of like WD-40 in a farm setting. It’s messy, but not as messy as grease. It’s effective to coat things that constantly wear and have started to rust. I also rub it on my leather boots to waterproof it for cheap.
I’ve been wishing for such a thing for a long time. That looks great!
Sure thing, boss.

I had no idea it existed before the API changes were announced.
I agree. A few bigger updates here and there about what’s going on, but not constant reposts to where Lemmy starts looking like Reddit.

I’ve pulled one of those wireless trimmers apart when it quit working. I found a rechargeable AA battery soldered in there.
