  • It’s a tough decision.

    There’s a target on the collective back of Lemmy, its developers and this instance. Rooting out these issues early is part of it. One of my first recommendations to @ruud@lemmy.world was to start putting aside contribution dollars from donors for a legal fund to manage liabilities like this. This decision is just solid management and avoiding issues well ahead of time.

    I wish the admins well. And for those who have had their communities ‘snipped’ from being connected to Lemmy.world, I hear you. It’s hard when you have built a connection and a sense of self on a platform, and then it becomes severed. That’s hard.













  • Here are my humble three submissions!

    The first is a bit of a mashup, mixing the proverbial light bulbs that go off in community threads and has a lemmy with full cheeks (probably after eating… a little too much!). Also, it looks like an ice cream cone. It’s a bit more pop-art.

    Only the finest content will do: the second one has a bit more of a ‘fine dining’ aesthetic, where users engage online in a sophisticated, gentle-lemmy manner. Its nose is tipped upwards, as if looking down on lesser memes.

    The third one is more attached to your sought-after design. I attempted to channel the similar Fediverse art style, while keeping it simple enough for an app logo.


  • Exciting to see! Hopefully we start to get some network effects, and start seeing communities pop up from the different parts of the internet.

    One of the things I quite like about Lemmy is that a group can host their own community, and for folks who are concerned about what happened at Reddit or otherwise, the fediverse/decentralized model allows them a high degree of control, while at the same time connecting them through an entire network of people to discover them. It’s pretty exciting to see this.
