    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 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.

    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.

The fact they can be so stable and so large suggests to me that there’s a lot less activity this time around.

    I like people having fun instead of complaining which won’t work sadly. Just have fun then I’d say.

        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-

      What? Why do I see “removed” instead of whatever curse is uttered?

        Lemmy.ml has a slur filter and b!tch is on there. Not only is it a slur folter but it’s apparently the kind of implementation that people always use as an example of how not to do a filter. If you type something on it we will all see it as “removed”. If @DarkGamer says it, you see “removed”, I (kbin) see the actual word.

        I found some old posts complaining about it and apparently some people trying to write St@rdew were having it come out as “S removed ew”. Not sure if that one’s still there but I put the symbols in just in case.

        Maybe it’s a lemmy.ml setting? I still see my original uncensored comment on kbin.social.

    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.

        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.
