Just found this for viewing place without Reddit:
This is a cooperation between France, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Germany, LGBTQ, Trans community, India, and more.
France
Costa Rica
Venezuela
Germany
LGBTQ
Trans community
India
The real G7
holy crap they really added a description for everything
Yea this is pretty cool. I can finally identify stuff I’ve seen on there before but could never figure it out.
The "Fuck Spez" is much smaller when you view the whole thing :(
They have expanded the canvas several times. As far as I remember more quickly and frequently than they did before.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if they did that to achieve this very effect, way more space so protest art isn't so prominent.
still one of the biggest pieces though
I really appreciate these posts; this way I don't need to actually go to Reddit to see what it's looking like.
I'm not giving them any traffic, thanks
But they are giving us traffic! (There's a join-lemmy.org message in the middle of the canvas)
I helped!
If you guys really wanted to let Spez know how mad you are you would STOP GOING TO REDDIT... Every time "fuck spez" shows up on this page it just means a bunch of people got on Reddit and boosted their numbers which makes them look more valuable to investors for the IPO.
Do I really need to remind you that Spez or anyone else who works for Reddit COULD TAKE THIS DOWN AT LITERALLY ANYTIME THEY FEEL LIKE IT?
Every time you go there and write "fuck spez" I'm sure he goes to sleep crying into the giant pile of money he sleeps on
I'll say it once more, if you want Spez to pay DO NOT GO ON REDDIT EVEN TO TELL HIM WHAT A FUCKING ASSHOLE HE IS, THAT IS LITERALLY EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS YOU TO DO
Streisand effect. They keep deleting it. More people will help. Similarly, you telling people not to go on reddit, will make people go on reddit.
This doesn't make alot of sense to me. Doubt all that was created by Lemmy users that logged in to reddit-that's simply Reddit users? Can't be good for Reddit that this is going on such a large scale. And if nothing else .... Great amusement lol
At this point it is big enough to gather the interest of the media whether it stays up or gets wiped, and investors watch the media like hawks.
I like how u/spez ist ein hurensöhn was still there last time I check
Spez is a Whoreson? I know literally 0 German but I'm confident that's what that says
Yes... Son of a whore / son of a bitch
The phrase "Sprich deutsch, du Hurensohn" ("Speak german, you son of a whore") has evolved from an insult to somewhat of an insider meme in german subreddits. It was an answer to english comments flooding german subreddits and making communication difficult.
And now we basically can call anyone a Hurensohn and it now counts as transformative art lol
The translation that everyone knows which came from Google translate is spez is a son of a bitch, but I think whoreson might be more correct
now there's a big "FUCK U/SPEZ" sign
Whoever decided to turn the S into a dollar sign is a fuccin artist wwwwww
I like that the S is a $
I feel dumb because I stopped going on reddit a month ago so I have no idea how the dumpster fires smoldering...
Ok but... Why the are people criticizing the reddit CEO on reddit and thereby USING REDDIT? There is no need to spread that he's shit anymore at this point for everyone to see. Everyone knows by now. If people don't approve of his ways, they need to boycott his platform. But if they keep participating on r/place, they are literally supporting him by using his platform?!
This is not a hot take, people are aware of the dissonance of using Reddit to complain about Reddit. But many folks are still upset but not upset enough to leave, or would like to leave but aren’t ready for places like Lemmy yet. It still needs work and polish before the average Joe will be comfortable here.
So in the meantime I say go for it, having fuck spez be one of the main focal points of the whole canvas is incredible and sends a message. Yea most folks have heard about it by now but might be surprised users are still upset, or never really understood what the big deal was before but maybe they look into it now. Every bit of negative sentiment on Reddit about Reddit will slowly push users away. This is more than a bit of negative sentiment.
Roughly speaking, there are three different ways people handle when something they enjoy is changed in a way they don't enjoy.
The first simply cut their losses and move on, abandoning the thing. Nothing wrong with that. Things change and it's okay to move on to something else. Companies that are causing harm to their user base should suffer the consequences of their decisions. Do this too much, though, and you may find you abandon your loves too easily.
The second just accept and bear it. Arguably nothing wrong with that as long as you still enjoy it. Just be careful that apathy is not taken for permission for further change.
The third will attempt to fight back in an attempt to preserve it. These are the type who still use Reddit even though they know it's broken. They do not abandon it because to do so is to lose it entirely. They are trying to work within the system to change the system. Nothing wrong with that either, as long as you know when the battle is lost. They obviously don't believe it has been lost yet.
Can't talk for everyone, but for the case of rplace, I'd say propaganda.
I know of people who still use reddit as they always do, and its likely because they don't know reddit's latest (and terrible) corporate decisions, so using rplace to spread a message that tells people something is wrong with reddit is the first step for these people to find the right path: leaving reddit.
Sabotaging the quality of reddit also hurts spez. Advertisers have been pulling out, ipo valuation is going down. If the super users make it a place people don't want to go, they will stop going, and it will get worse. If they make life hard for the mods, some of them will say "fuck it." And stop being mods because they will realize it's not worth it.
It's not just about raising awareness
they should change it to fuck reddit because when spez gets fired, they will think the battle is won, which will lose them the battle
Absolutely glorious, I'm actually proud of those poor sad bastards
Continuing to rebel against the site by using the hell out of the site and driving its numbers up, I see. Have fun with that.
I am curious about this IPO, because I want to see what a clownshow their cash flow statement is likely to be.
Spez is and will always be a hurensohn.
Regardless of whether you're Mexican, Italian, German, Indian, Costa Rican, French, Venezulean, LGBTQ, a brony or whatever other flags are here, we can all agree on one thing
It has become a competition for who has the biggest bonnet
Sadly gone now. Admins won't let this stand. Although the time lapses are hilarious.
Uhhh no? I just checked, it’s in the middle far right, and if you’re looking at the whole things it’s one of the biggest single pieces that jumps out at you.
I’m so proud 🥲
So, uh, reddit added OCR with banned words but allows flags, or what's going on?
Country flags are the most popular thing in r/place, and country subs are big too. They can share a little of their clicks and reddit would think before pissing them off and erasing them. People kinda dislike when you erase the symbol of their country. It can also go into news.
On a side note, I'm pleased to see that the void demon is looking beautiful as ever. Easily the best actually original idea/artwork to have come out of there.
