Hey all, can anyone tell me the date we're gona land on for the first anniverssary?

I guess it'll be when the instance was spun up? Or i don't know, maybe when it was a twinkle in Lodion's eye?

Brisbane is the second largest city-based community on Aussie.zone!

Last I checked Melbourne was the largest city-based community on Lemmy...

Melbourne's daily threads have like 65535 comments a day. Brisbane's daily thread generally has 3.

I'm getting sore shoulders doing all this carrying.

Look at this guy showing off, 3!

I’m from Adelaide and don’t even know if we have an Adelaide thread

WOW ANOTHER PERSON FROM ADELAIDE WE NEED TO DIGITALLY REPRODUCE AND REPOPULATE OUR GREAT CITY'S COMMUNITY

/C/Melbourne: I can't believe the daily thread only got 400 comments today

/C/Brisbane: 400? We're only getting 4!

/C/Adelaide: You guys are getting daily threads??

I try to help out by posting Brisbane articles whenever I see them, but not living in Brisbane makes it hard to join in on discussions

I check in on your DTs and chuck out some upvotes every so often

I'm a very generous man, you see!

I'll take the chance to say cheers for doing the same on the c/Perth/WA community. I at least appreciate it a bunch :)

♥️

I can't usually contribute very much to the discussions that stem from it, but I figured the more posts there are, the more potential for discussion there is. Stops the communities from being entirely dead at least I guess

Go recruiting on r/Brisbane. That's why we got so many members.

You can also join us for a chinwag anytime.

I don't know if there's a per-subreddit shadow ban or whatever, but the mods made it clear that they don't like me deleting my old posts and ever since then nothing I post gets any replies or updoots.

I mean my sample size is small, maybe a dozen posts since the API dramas, but still.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Oh. Arseholes.

Some of the mods were active on here momentarily, but must've left when they realised they would lose control by bringing their community over here - or ditching reddit themselves

I love how we all grouped together to recruit all the DT regulars. I mean I didn't really do anything, but I watched you guys do it 😂
