cake for everyone!

Stop trying to clone Reddit ffs, cakeday was a Reddit thing

explain the cake icon next to my username then

I mean they just did. It’s an attempt to clone Reddit.

Was a thing long before Reddit, so no it isn’t really.

Putting a cake icon next to a user on their cake day was before Reddit? Never knew.

Does lemmy display it beside the user? Or only on their page? I really don’t know.

And I’m sure some website did something similar before Reddit, didn’t neopets signify your creation date or something?

Nothing is really a unique idea, it’s all a copy of mashup of other things. What’s cake to one person is a star to another app.

We should make a federation wide cake day where people post delicious bottoms.

Yeah, cakeday was pretty stupid after reddit made it official.

Then why does Lemmy show a literal cake icon next to my join date?

What are you doing on Lemmy? I thought Lemmy is Reddit alternative!

I’m not on Lemmy

cupcake? biscuit? the joining day. it’s ok to celebrate happy similarities. May the rest of your day be filled with joy.

imagine gatekeeping cake days. stop bringing reddit asshole gatekeeping culture to lemmy

Agreed. This is the last thing we need here. Threads full of cake day bullshit was do fucking annoying.
