Here’s an idea for my fellow Lemmings, Piefedians and others, about a fun little challenge we could run in the month of September, to encourage a greater variety of posts across our communities with help from people who usually lurk or only occasionally comment. Each person would score themselves on an attempt to make 10 contributions across some defined categories in a month. What do you think?
You must log in or register to comment.
My first draft of the 10 categories:
Vibrancy Challenge Categories
- (Freebie) Make a shitpost.
- Make a post about something other than technology or politics or a shitpost.
- Make a post showcasing a thing or topic you find interesting.
- Make a post to a community with less than 100 subscribers.
- Make a post to a community in a small instance.
- Make a post featuring a human-made piece of art.
- Make an on-topic comment to a post in a small community.
- Make a comment or post sharing news about a location relevant to you.
- Make a high-quality long form text post or comment.
- Post or comment a link from another part of the Fediverse.
Feedback welcome.
So I would just have to return to the way I’ve been posting before August hehe
I really like this idea and think it’s awesome!
… Damn, this is a really cool idea.
Can I ask why you didn’t use Fediverse instead of threadaverse? I think the idea is great, but it makes me think of Meta.
The Threadiverse is the thread-based subset of the Fediverse (primarily Lemmy, Piefed, and Mbin).
I know, but Meta ruined that name IMO.
I use Threadiverse to mean Lemmy Piefed Kbin and similar part of the Fediverse, nothing to do with Meta. I selected this terminology to differentiate it from microblogging platforms like Mastodon, though they are absolutely welcome to participate by posting to Lemmy and Piefed communities. With character limits and other structural design differences I suppose it is just a harder challenge. If you have suggestions for another name to describe topic-based online socializing I’m all ears.
Through the 10th proposed category, I’m hoping to make people aware of that connection to the wider Fediverse with links to Masto, PeerTube etc.
Keep using it, I use it too.
I would just use Fediverse since it’s your ultimate goal to include them anyway. It would be great if they joined in the challenge in their own way anyway.
The name threadyverse is much older that metas threads.
Support given. Categories?
- post one video
- post one image
- post one question to the fediverse e.g askfeddit
- post one article you read
- post one comment with an opinion
- post one comment saying thank you
- make one positive post
Uh… Can’t think of anything else. Maybe post 2 videos instead of 1?
Maybe make a comment on a video or post on or linking to another fediverse platform e.g comment on a peertube video or share a peertube video.
i will have upheaval because of moving but will try to do my best for threadtember 🫡 a couple of the suggested categories are things i already do so that takes a little pressure off
Threadtember is a neat name, I’ll see what catches on. Good luck with the move (and the challenge).
What goes on the bingo card?
See my comment
I’ve only posted two or three times but I can try to help out here.
This is such a fun challenge idea!!
I support this, this is pretty cool
