Happy cake day @ruud@lemmy.world ! Appreciate you hosting all us Reddit Refugees when the Reddit Third-Party API Exodus happened one year ago! And big shout out to you and the other volunteer mods and admins, across multiple instances, that put in their free time to stabilize Lemmy World during the massive uptick in user registration, handling the codebase, the upgrade challenges, the creepy CSAM bad actors last year, and saw us through all the intermittent downtimes we had periodically. Lemmy World has been super stable and reliable since then.

Reminder to all reading this: if you can, chip in and help with server costs for this valuable service. Decentralization FTW

Happy Cake Day! Mine's in just under a week.

Edit: I'm going to slightly bend (but not break) the unofficial Admin Prime Directive a bit and point out that at least two people with Lemmy World accounts downvoted this post. Like, what are you even doing here then?

Cake day on my lemmy.world account is in 11 days. Happy cake day to all that migrated!

Happy cake day to all the users who will have it shortly or already did :)

Congratulations Ruud on an amazing job!

Only 4 more days to go for me. It's crazy how much lemmy.world has grown since those early days

❤️🍾🥂🍰

Happy cake day! June 9th for me, it's been one fast year!

Wow! I just looked and I'll have my cake day soon too! I really thought it had been 6 months. Time flies.

I can't wait to have my first cake here

Congrats!
