A note for probably incoming comments: If it is going to repeat itself here, we are forced to disallow such posts at all, to keep c/reddit at least civilized.
Can you at least make it like one image per X hours? Or post multiple images into one post only? I want to keep it updated somehow, but if not...
Live stream on YouTube.
I mean more like snapshots of r/place here not whole live stream of it 😀
Wow Reddit can openly and unapologetically shit on their community and they continue to support the site. All of the "fuck spez" content is gone, and they're doing exactly what Reddit wanted in the first place, keeping it corporate and advertiser friendly. What a sad community that can't even defend themselves, this is why the state of things are getting so much worse.
There's "fuck spez" content in the middle around the 3rd party apps sign, but nothing like it was a day ago.
There's also "spez is a whore son", but I guess spez doesn't read German.
And "u/spez functie elders" in Dutch which basically means he should fuck off.
Also "Spez ist ein hurensohn" in the German flag at the top.
Cause they are actively removing it
Are they though?
Yep and admins are removing posts about the censorship in the place sub apparently
The guillotine got axed. Someone should do something about it.
There were plenty videos posted showing that reddit admins were using some tool that was just putting random patterns over it (they didn't even bother to make it look real, so it appeared all at once)
People who are engaging with it as a form a protest are just dumb. Reddit has full control over it so they can remove anything they don't like instantly.
To be fair, the guillotine was a step too far so the admins intervened rightly in my opinion.
You make it sound like it was a death threat and not a metaphor for the death of Reddit.
A better way to get the metaphor across would have been the guillotine blade be labeled Spez instead.
The way it was made caused some people think it was saying "death to Spez" and not "death to reddit"
I admit I didn’t interpret it correctly then, if the metaphor that you describe is the intention.
Still I think it’s pretty easy to interpret it the wrong way without the adjustments you described.
That’s how I interpreted it, indeed. That may be my dark personality but I assume it’s a pretty common interpretation.
I'm with you. Imagine if everyone decided to draw gore there, regardless if it had anything to do with spez, it's just kind of inappropriate and feels really childish, in my opinion.
Gore... is childish?
this r/place is just a attempt to take just a little more traffic to the site to keep it alive
Yeah, seems like a desperate maneuver
yeah, a little out of place
Fu** spez is such a useless protest. Best way to protest is to show people there are alternatives. I wish the Germans change their message to something like join feddit.de
We've already tried to build a join-lemmy.org banner and almost done. We made allies with some communities, but the bigger ones are too hard to reach out.
There is a Matrix coordination chat, join here to help us: https://matrix.to/#/!hiNoQZCxnHSsATzzmo:data.haus
The bickering in the comments is entertaining but the amount of fuck spez and fuck Reddit has gone down significantly. Sad.
We should make our own r/place with democracy and hookers.
I already thought about something like this xd
Is there some technical difficulties in creating this in lemmy? I thought I would see alternatives by now
Its little bit difficult to integrate it into lemmy. Otherwise there are many website that is like r/place but most of them are crap
I could imagine like a post where its like a 1000x1000 canvas and everyone can color a pixel with commenting like
x:y HEXCOLOR
and it creates that pixel on the canvas and reupload it.
Yeah but people want to click the point on the canvas to interact with it. Its possible it just needs to be the authority on pixel placing to keep track of whose on cooldown and such.
Yeah but that requires a off site website. And i imagined a inside lemmy c/place event-
Could you not put the authority service inside of lemmy?
Those massive regions of untouched plain colour on the country flags are pretty telling. In previous years you'd never get that, they'd be in constant flux. The fact they can be so stable and so large suggests to me that there's a lot less activity this time around. I'd be interested to see if there's any hard data anyone has about pixels/min or anything like that.
The whole thing should just be "fuck spez" but people are so desperate to get their same designs on this like the last time.
Imo having a place so recent after the last one is super dumb. Completely kills the hype for it.
Having r/place be more than a one-time event is dumb enough already especially now that streamers are trying to capitalize off of it as well.
It's always same shit different day as long as people can't find other things that represent their country and interests other than flags and the logo of whatever they're interested in.
Not that I would want that, now after all that happened. Maybe a boring non-variant r/place is the best we can do aside of writing fuck spez on everything that lets us?
Would love to see more nudity and profane messages though since they would NEVER be able to use that to advertise Reddit.
Yeah this basically looks like it did last time.
Last time was way more detailed. It was sprawling with mass participation from so many communities that the more you zoomed in and looked, the more cool, creative and diverse stuff you'd find.
This time looks like a completely bare bones shell of the handful of communities that even thought it was worth spending time on. It's not even close to the same glorious effort that it was before.
Yeah, so they went through and "cleaned" it up, huh?
