Welcome to the Lemmyvision Song Contest where communities and instances of Lemmy submit a song and vote on their favourites!

The aim is to promote different languages and cultures from around the world, to share more between our online communities across Lemmy, and discover songs from lesser known artists.

The first edition of Lemmyvision has concluded. More will come, in the meantime, feel free to share music from where you're from! ๐ŸŽถ

TLDR: The voting form will be published on Monday, April 8th!

Thank you everyone for your submissions so far !

When I had the idea of Lemmyvision a Sunday afternoon, I never expected it to even take off, it was a silly idea that I thought was interesting enough to put effort in, I haven't contacted as many communities as I wanted, and was scared of letting people down, and mismanaging this small event, and yet you guys showed up and participated! I wanted to sincerely thank you for taking time out of your own lives to share a part of your musical culture. ๐Ÿ’ž

Denmark and Canada needed a bit more time to vote on their respective song to send, which will conveniently give me some time to make a proper form given that I was busy this weekend. I will probably use https://tally.so/ which seems to allow infinite responses (just in case) and conditional logic on their free plan. I'm currently debating with myself on whether the voting will take form of a 1 to 5 score per song, or a ranking, or just naming your favourite (and runner up?), I'll think about it, but feel free to share your thoughts / suggestions.

If your community hasn't submitted a song yet, and would like to participate, you still have time, just send the song your community chooses before the deadline!

Meanwhile, you have time to discover the submitted songs, as well as the songs that were suggested from each community. See you next week!

I'm glad you're following through, this is a really cool idea and things like this are what will define the Lemmy experience

Awesome ! 8)

i do hope there will be another one. Why not summer's song ? Christmas song ? Let's see how it will unfold :D

Christmas song

Great idea, as long as it doesn't become Silent Night in 300 different languages...

Have you ever seen a German having fun outside of Oktoberfest?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

fair point, but I can't see them missing on a opportunity to nominate some weird stuff just to baffle everyone.

Sounds great, thanks!

Everyone please upvote, so it reaches "front-page" for more users.

(I had to dig into my subscriptions just find this post.)

I'll make a post and share it to some communities once I've published the poll !
