No we won’t, my wife and me…but we will be donating toys to the local food bank this year for Sinterklaas and Christmas. We normally only bring food packs.
I did it twice in the early days of reddit and didn't get a gift the second year so I'm done with Secret Santa with strangers forever lol
Nice initiative!
Seems fit for this community
I used to do CenturyClub secret santa. I received a really cool Nemo made of bottlecaps.
I miss that sort of in-group camaraderie, but I don't feel like I've found that on Lemmy yet.
I mostly miss CenturyClub new user threads. That was a delightful sub to be a member of.
I miss the flair threads. It was one thing to have people pick flair based on your username, but having flair that was based on an inside joke or some notable conversation made it feel like Cheers.
I liked the idea of flair threads, but time zone issues meant I could never meaningfully participate in them, since if you didn't get in in the first hour or so you'd have missed the conversation.
I didn’t know about this. What is it?
Secret santa over the interwebs.
You fill out a form with your interest, and some time later you get interests of some stranger. And some time later in December you will send a present to some stranger and you receive a present from different stranger.
