Strengthening Community Bonds: [email protected]
Greetings everyone, We wanted to take a moment and let everyone know about the [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] community on Lemmy.World which hasn’t gained much traction. Additionally, we’ve noticed occasional complaints about Business-related news being posted in the Technology community. To address this, we want to encourage our community members to engage with the Business community. While we’ll still permit Technology-related business news here, unless it becomes overly repetitive, we kindly ask that you consider cross-posting such content to the Business community. This will help foster a more focused discussion environment in both communities. We’ve interacted with the mod team of the Business community, and they seem like a dedicated and welcoming group, much like the rest of us here on Lemmy. If you’re interested, we encourage you to check out their community and show them some support! Let’s continue to build a thriving and inclusive ecosystem across all our communities on Lemmy.World!

Banner / Logo Contest
Hey everyone! We have decided to do a banner and logo contest, here is how to participate: 1. Any submission must be commented below in its own thread, that way they are easy for everyone to find. Any top level comments that are not a submission will be removed, commenting on submissions thread is allowed. 2. Everyone can vote on the ones listed below to help the decision, but the mods will pick their favorites and make a separate post for the community to vote on. 3. Obviously the design must be tech/news related, all art forms welcome, and please no NSFW. You can submit just a banner, or just a logo, or both if you wish! 4. Winner will get sidebar acknowledgement and bragging rights. 5. Be excellent to eachother! Any questions can be messaged to either @[email protected] or myself!
