Nomination post on LEMMY: lemmy.ca/post/11110616

You can nominate anyone but yourself

You must nominate underneath the mod comment for that category

You must link directly to your nomination

Each nomination must be for one piece of content only

Some helpful links

Winning

A single post or comment can only win once, even if nominated in multiple categories

The winner will be the entry in each category with the most upvotes

Mods can be nominated, but if they win any of the categories, the prizes will go to the next eligible nominees

Other Details

Reddit:

All top-level comments and non-link comments will be removed.

Please do not downvote

This thread will be in contest mode, so nobody will know who is winning until we announce it.

Lemmy:

This is the first year with our Lemmy community on the Fediverse. If you don’t have a Reddit account anymore and would like to vote there, feel free to copy a nomination into the Lemmy thread, or to get in touch with us to on Lemmy to discuss.

Lemmy does not have all the same features as Reddit yet, and so the experience will be a little different. Please reach out to us or make a separate post to talk about how we can do things differently next year.

Now, go forth and nominate your favourite content from the past year, and don’t forget to upvote other nominations you think should win!

The Lemmy community of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada!

To contact the mods, we recommend sending a modmail on Reddit until there is an equivalent feature on Lemmy. If you want, you can also message @Otter on Lemmy.
