    There was a post about a can of beans yesterday… literally just that. “Here’s a can of beans”… since then, the beans have taken over 😅

    I think the point of this shower thought is a good one though: despite not being centralized, the beans still spread in a very reddit-like fashion…

      This is great! This is the kind of wacky behavior that generates personality, community, media coverage, interest and curiosity, As ironic as it is, I think this is a milestone for the fediverse.

      It’s also the beginnings of a collective conscious which means the fediverse is inching towards a critical mass of some sort.

      I’m pretty sure Reddit back in its frontier days had several wacky trends take over.

      Just my opinion but I’m loving it and I think it’s a good thing,
