Has there been a major spike in user registrations or any other metric? I’ve never seen something “go viral” like this on lemmy before.
Beans happened a while ago
IDK what voidposting is but beans I think I remember
It was kinda unfunny tbh :/
Oh, it definitely was
Beans, star trek, beams, off the top of my head. There’s been others. It happens a lot.
Let’s not forget voluntary constipation, the first topic I remember really consuming the site.
The OG Lemmy meme is shower heads.
I’m relatively new to lemmy, so i guess i missed all the other events
There will be more, don’t worry. We enjoy the silliness.
Welcome. We also have something like r/place here: https://canvas.fediverse.events/
Couldn’t say, but it did cause me to unfollow the cat community I was following because my feed was unbrowseable outside of void cats.
I’m just seeing them go viral on Lemmy. If they were going viral outside of Lemmy, too, that might cause an uptick in user registrations. Hell, some of the previous meme fads weren’t even new to Lemmy. Beans aren’t new or exclusive to Lemmy. Neither was pondering the orb, nor are the voids.
I didn’t know that even happened. Must’ve occurred in the void.
