Thank you! That was really interesting to watch. And it’s so tragic what happened to Aaron.
Redditor for 15 years, mostly lurker. I’ve never used the app and only used old.reddit. I’ve moved on the first black out day and so far, I’m not missing it. I prefer the vibe on Lemmy and hope, the conversations here stay as friendly as the communities grow :)
Thanks for creating the community.

That sub had been created in response to threads that were looking for a community with a more inclusive sounding name that’s not connected with DNA :)

There were a couple of threads a few days ago regarding naming a community Twoxchromosomes like on Reddit. The overall consensus was to move away from DNA connected names and go with a different name that is more inclusive and welcoming for transgendered or female identifying people 🙂
Edit Made my comment more inclusive
I had tried to participate one or two iterations ago. Each and every single pixel I tried to contribute was immediately turned into a red pixel by a bot. Took all the fun out of it.
The picture was there and it was clear where they were trying to get to, but the red dots completely destroyed it.
I had enough of it after that. It’s not worth it having to wait five minutes to place one pixel just to have it instantly undone again.
