Would be cool if r/place could be used to give some exposure to lemmy. Maybe something like a big "move 2 lemmy" text. But probably difficult to find and coordinate enough people.
I look forward to people using it to encourage Rexit. People will add links to Lemmy servers, etc. It will be glorious.
What was r/place? Not familiar with it.
Giant public canvas. Once every ten minutes, each reddit user can select the color for any one pixel they want.
Thanks! I do remember that and was late to the last one. That was neat to see.

This is going to go about as well as gasoline to out a fire. Surprised they are not locking this to only users with premium subscriptions.
Wow this couldn't be any more transparent. Laziest way to get easy PR after the stream of terrible decisions they've made. Thankfully doesn't look like anyone's buying it.
Looking forward to watching the cat-and-mouse game of people writing "fuck /u/spez" and the admins deleting it. Gonna be a shitshow.
The only thing they could bring back that would make me consider making an account is TheButton. By the way I was a 42s Blue Hitchhiker.
