... And just like that, Reddit is down site-wide. Awfully convenient.

It also successfully distracted the userbase and isolated their protests from the rest of the site.

People make fun of Place but I think they knew exactly what they were doing.

We all want to have an immortal legacy. Any good he's ever done is going to be overshadowed.

You can build 1000 bridges and fuck one clown. You won't be known as a bridge builder but a clown fucker.

Reddit admins right now

A cat beat everyone to it.

Nice and all, but pretty pointless if you stay there after.

And spez will always be a hurensohn no matter what.

Well the join lemmy ad made it until the end at least

Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

-Dylan Thomas

Based! Hopefully everyone can abandon Reddit soon

Worked for me, quit Reddit and in the lemmyverse now. They did this to themselves.

I wonder what the federated version of r/place would look like. It should not be too hard to create a collaborative pixel board and accept input from anywhere in the fediverse. But we would need to come up with some cool fedi spin. A chessboard, maybe, where every server has a square?

In the future, when the fediverse is more mature, it would be cool to create something.

All the images are so clean. Like if they were all created by well coordinated robots.

When does place end?

Every time anything negative towards reddit has gone up on place, mass unattributed changes have happened. I expect the same will happen here.

Lmao! they thought we can't create art with just white pixels

That...is impressive.
