Hey all,

I’ve got an exciting thing to announce today, Canvas — Lemmy’s r/Place!

We need to get our own traditions over here in the Threadiverse, why not start off with our own r/Place

This weekend, we will open up a canvas to all Lemmy users, each user will be able to place 1 pixel every minute. This event will last 72 hours, starting midnight EST on the 4th and ending at 11:59pm EST on the 6th

The first iteration was cool for awhile. It came out of nowhere and people spontaneously created art together, battled other groups trying to do the same, chose colors as their flag of war. I had a window open in the background that I would pop in on every ten minutes or so while I worked to try to support a small piece that I liked.

Then people coded bots for it and it got hyper-organized. They announced the next one ahead of time and it absolutely destroyed the soul of the thing. The second and third ones were a fucking joke. Watching the time lapse was embarrassing as immediately the entire canvas was covered with flags and brands. Awful idea to bring here.
