The Lemmy equivalent of r/195 on Reddit. Not officially affiliated (yet).
Any moderators from the reddit can have mod here, just ask.
There's another 196 over on 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone
Most people use the Blahaj.zone one so this place isn't very active.

There actually was context for this believe it or not. Before the Great Reddit Enshitification, r/dankmemes (I think), would have a yearly election to determine what the fish of the year would be. I think they also even held regularly scheduled debates. It was in an elimination bracket system like they do in basketball.
I don't remember if the pike ended up getting cancelled or not.
Oooh! Reminds me of when Tumblr had an election thing years ago.
