The internet has ruined me.
I read no lawns and it took me a while to make sure it's a have-flowes-and-other-good-stuff-on-your-compound-instead-of-grass post and not a shitpost.
I thought it was ai comment spam advertising kremp.com
are we sure it’s not an ad?
They did not ask me to post this for what it's worth. I did consider redacting it but the organization the email originated from had nothing to do with them.
This is incredible!
It's had me in a good mood all day!
Lovely, great work!
Thank you :) my mods on all platforms are seriously amazing
Your community inspired me to start converting my lawn into native ground cover! It's an ongoing project but I never would have started without you!
OMG I'm so happy to hear that. Today has been a wild day for me haha. Glad you started!
This is awesome! Love seeing the younger generations getting involved and that your SO lost his mind when he found out lol.
So glad you chose solarpunk as your home on the fediverse :) It was a big reason I chose this instance and I'm happy to be part of the team!
❤️❤️
I too want to thank you.
Aww ❤️
Unfortunately, this is just a form email being used to advertise the website they linked to. I used to be in charge of the website for the master gardeners association in my area, and we got dozens of these things every year through the contact / feedback form. They were always slight variations on the same template seen here, and near the end they all contained some kind of request for us to add a link to some vaguely horticulture-related business or content farm to our "resources" page.
I hope your site has had the kind of positive impact they describe, and I don't doubt that it has, but this message you got is from someone trying to take advantage of you.
