What’s the over-under on how long it takes before fuck u spez or API get spelled out?
My bet is about 90 seconds.
r/spaces was dead as soon as the first one ended. Whether you feel indifferent about what happened the past couple of weeks or Reddit as a whole, or simply despise Spez. You’ll be disappointed either way. They will censor the crap out of it.
That’s a no from me, dawg
Probably 3 minutes, tops, in a neutral setting, but every reddit employee and pro-dumbass mod knows that’s the first thing anyone is going to do, so they’ll be up all night alongside their bots, cheating and shadowbanning like last time. Not that I’m naming names, Chtorr.
No way under god will they allow the kinds of things users are about to depict happening to spez
Looks like they are just baiting users to the site to get some traffic. Given how the user base is still pretty annoyed with Reddit I can’t imagine this is going to go well for Reddit.
They’re expecting it to show up and as much as I want to see this trash fire, i’m not gonna.
The first one was beautiful. The second one was ruined by censorship. The third is pure desperation, its not even April 1st.
That’s what I was thinking, they must be hurting to do r/place out of the blue like this
Got to get those engagement numbers back up for the future share holders. I like to think the code was kept in a little glass box that says exodus use only.
I’m pretty sure the second one was where we did the iconic “he laughed” panel from One Piece - so not a total loss IMO.
The third is pure desperation, its not even April 1st.
The whole platform became a joke though, so there’s that.
I didn’t participate in the second one. What kinds of censorship happened?
An admin was caught editing pixels without cooldown to draw over several communities’ art. Iirc, it was mainly to overwrite NSFW art. When people noticed, the comments that mentioned it got deleted
I remember thinking it was bizarre how angry people seemed to be about that, like it was a huge scandal. It doesn’t matter, it’s not important! Go do something else!
I believe many of those people got banned, too.
I forgot about the censorship that was horrible

*Text in black: FUCK SPEZ GO LEMMY
Full screen. Would be hilarious 😂
Should we do this? All of lemmy go back to write “go to lemmy” or something?
No
Nah, I wouldn’t want everyone to come over here, forcing all the corps & business interests to focus on this place and figure out how to monetize it.
Panem et circenses to calm the masses and also to improve search results for the term ‘reddit’.
Ha! Jokes on them, I avoid using search engines if I know the full link (which for reddit’s r/place is https://reddit.com/r/place ) and when I do use search engines, I use Brave Search, so it doesn’t even feed into Google or Bing’s popularity contest where the show popular searches.
Meh. I won’t grace Reddit with my traffic
I’m sure it’ll be 98.6% bots
reddit will set up their own bot to cover up any “fuck u/spez” that appears
Can almost guarantee as soon as the admins see something close to being API related being created they’ll remove it
I bet they have some bots around to replace anything bad. There were some brief NSFW stuff last time they did this that got overwritten really really quick and suddenly.
They have moderators that can remove anything.
I remember the 1st one it was magic! Second one was ok but censorship and bots killed it
3rd one? I dunno I quit Reddit last month after 13 years…
Oh, that’s where the new app icon is from! I guess that makes sense. Shame it happened after I stopped contributing.
It sounds like they’d been wanting to do this since April but it kept getting delayed 🤷♂️ my assumption of desperation was premature
So they are just bleeding r/place dry? Shouldn’t it just be an April fools thing?
How long before Reddit staff start editing pixels to remove anything “inappropriate”?
Didn’t they do that last time? I recall entire sections instantly reset when porn was being constructed.
They did and it was visible, since the admin account name would be on those pixels.
