Hello world,
Today we are starting an April Fools charity event called: Lemmy Silver! accessible to all users of Lemmy with an account made before today (also non-world users!).
From now on, every 24 hours, you can comment !lemmysilver under any post in participating communities (see: this post for more information), or send a PM to this bot account with (!lemmysilver [username]) to award the poster points. We will keep a score depending on the amount of votes you send and receive. More details can be found in this post.
In this post we will keep a live leaderboard. At the end of April the users with the highest score will get these prizes:
- €150 to a charity of choice
- €100 to a charity of choice
- €75 to a charity of choice
- €50 to a charity of choice
- €25 to a charity of choice
If you are a moderator and want to add your community to the whitelist, type !whitelistsilver in the comments or in a PM to the bot account to whitelist all the communities you moderate, or send a PM to me (Thekingoflorda).
The prize fund is made up by personal donations from members of the admin team and the moderation team, no money from the Fedihosting Foundation is used for this event. If you want to contribute to the prize fund, please send me a PM.
We also made a little survey for this event, so if you have 2 minutes, please fill it out: https://app.formbricks.com/s/cm8x96xjc022vvt01xr0z9tdp
Feel free to leave any feedback here in the comments, in !LemmySilver@lemmy.world or by sending them to my PMs. The bot’s PM will probably not be read. Please be honest, but respectful and keep the TOS in mind.
Thank you everyone! Hope you have fun.
PS. The bot might be a bit unstable in the beginning, so please send all your complaints my way so I can fix the inevitable bugs.

Beat me to it by 4 minutes.

Edit: typo. will enter command again
Quick question, it seems to me you do not have any communities you moderate. Did you use that command because my explanation above is not clear? I’m looking to improve the explanation (:
I have the communities but the bot doesnt detect those, maybe because those communities arent being fetched to the bot’s instance, or because I’m in a different platform?
I do create and moderate !TalkingTomAndFriends@thebrainbin.org, !Outfit7Limited@thebrainbin.org (officialy recognized by mods of r/Outfit7Limited), !TalkingHank@thebrainbin.org (r/TalkingHank, my own stillborn (closed while WIP) subr*ddit), and !RejectedMCsuggestions@thebrainbin.org (r/rejectedMCsuggestions, also my own, opened too early but closed after the API strike)
Huh, weird, those communities don’t show up for me.
I dont really understand the whole lemmysilver thing but thanks for getting a fun community charity raffle set up. You didn’t need to get a prize pool together so going the extra mile out of pocket to do that for a community event is such a cool move.
If I can answer any question(s) to make it more clear, feel free to ask (:
Does your vote get reset exactly 24 hours after your last vote, or is it reset midnight UTC time?
Exactly 24 hours.
Hmmm, time to find an app that can let me schedule a future comment then… Thanks!
This is great fun thanks for doing it
