Are they proposing Civilisation?

I'm not sure that would be welcome in the USA.

In case you don’t know: sometimes, wildlife rescues use ikea bags to restrain swans.

@PhoenixSerenity
Ending war seems to be the only objective for any civil society or individual action. I am not going off topic. I truly believe given the ubiquity of war or threat thereof and its inter-connection with every aspect of our polycrisis.
We cannot "fix" or even address issues such as inequality, divisive politics, choice & nation & individual sovereignty to name a few.

@margau 2012: Ja zu classful routing, CIDR, IPv6.

Be the change you want to see. Reddit Secret Santa was always a pretty big logistical undertaking, it would take effort to make a Fediverse one.

Also Fediverse users might be less keen on the idea generally, as it involves personal information and addresses. A very cynical take is that harvesting this data was the real purpose of the Reddit SS, which can’t really be ruled out.

You have to let go of the past. You can enjoy your memories, but you can never re-live them.

@neil I wonder what the figure is for, say, aged 40+? ;-)

I signed up for the Reddit secret Santa once like a decade ago. Spent a bunch of time researching what to get, and made a really thoughtful gift bag of candy and toys from Western Canada based on what my recipient told me he liked.

The person who got me as their recipient sent me a $5 Amazon comic book for a video game I’ve never played. It looked and felt like the grocery store fliers you get in the mail.

Oh and whoever I sent my gift to claimed he never received it.

There’s always boardgamegeek.com’s Secret Santa, too. Though, this year’s already closed to new registrants. 😅

Have you considered https://givin.gifts? They see themselves as the unofficial successor of redditgifts (they even let you import redditgifts gallery posts back when they were still online). They opened their Happy Holidays 2026 signups a couple of days ago and any premium user could also create a custom fediverse Secret Santa exchange.

I took part in every givin.gifts Happy Holidays exchange since redditgifts shut down and I’m happy with it. If there are any problems with your gifter, their team is really invested in smoothing things out and getting you a rematch if needed.

@jenniferplusplus Yeah. All the "good" use cases I've seen for generative AI point to societal failures that *ought* to be addressed further upstream.
