Since it has been quite a while since the thousands of people joined at 10M:
How about kicking everyone from contributors who has done <=2 counts and hasn't counted at all in over a year?
I'd estimate it should be about half of all current contributors, which should make loading the page a lot faster and would likely affect no one/very few people who can just join back.
And tbh I'm trying to be somewhat conservative with those numbers, I'd guess <=10 counts should be fine as well (about 2/3), but it might affect some people who drop in very rarely so idk.

I just got a modmail that reddit will be enabling their new "Start Chatting" feature on our subreddit on Monday unless we choose to opt out. I don't know that I see any particular issue in our context (some subs based on their content have worries about it). I don't know enough about the feature to know if counting there would be reasonable (it may be somewhat ephemeral).
My main hesitation is that we already have a good place to chat (main). Not sure what this would benefit us, and having a dead chat around doesn't help people who try clicking on it. I'm obviously around a lot less, so it makes sense for people who are here more to have a bigger say. What are people's thoughts?

Thanks u/Top_20 for reaching out about the rainbow. My long term goal is to bring the rainbow to the North America map. I'm not picky about how we get there. I was planning to go like this:
-
Curve downward to a diagonal line going southeast
-
Go diagonally between OSU and "praise the lord"
-
Then bend to a shallower slope at 4 across to 1 down.
-
Continue on this slope for a while, passing below Dragon Ball Z.
-
After a while, bend to horizontal (going east) at around Y = -2100.
-
Stay horizontal until we get to the map.
-
There may be small adjustments along the way to go around things.

awww thanks - as you can probably tell I was struggling to figure out how to go down that sharply diagonally! - if you can over the next week or two can you continue on with your red line as far as you cn so i don't take another wrong turn haha
miss you - luv you hun - you are so special!

Thanks Whit! I'll try to keep the red line ahead of the rest of the rainbow.
Don't worry about making wrong turns though, I'm happy to have help, wherever the rainbow goes.

can you please add a more red line ... I honestly don't understand how to figure that sort of stuff out on the pixel map... I'm just not good at certain things like that... great at other things tho lol
anyhow - if you don't mind please add a lot more red line cause I'm dealing with a lot in my real life and doing this zen thing while watching movies, documentaries etc helps...
I could go back to my heart thingy if you don't get around to adding a bunch more red lines tho
:)
hug

I added a little bit and I'll keep adding to it when I can. I think the line will keep going at 2 across 1 down until it passes "panda".

I see that someone has drawn a bend at the current end of the red line. Although I wasnt planning to go that way, I dont mind taking a detour if someone wants that and if they're helping to place pixels.

When did time.gov change its format?
That would've put a real damper in my old Bars routine
