Users are already planning protest art. I personally wouldn’t encourage people to join because it’s more traffic for Reddit, but that’s just me.
On other news, apparently requesting a subreddit now requires a 28d old account with 100+ karma.
EDIT: it's on again, since 20min ago:
The only two recognisable things are the “fuck spez” and nationalists spamming some government flag.
EDIT 2: better view:
I think that the meaning of the sentence in German up there should be rather obvious. It’s on-topic.
Is that the pixel art thing?
…how much of it will just be “fuck u/spez”?
Considering the top comment on the announcement post is basically nothing more than
“API”
I’m hoping A LOT. This will be fun to see.
Yup.
No idea - the ones who were pissed the most left. But hopefully quite a bit.
I think some enterprising souls may come back just to coordinate on making /r/place an advertisement for how shitty Reddit is being, as well as increasing awareness of alternatives like lemmy. And I think that’s great.
Since they’re banking on streamers once again competing with eachother, they’re expecting almost none.
Although depending on if/who gets involved there might be a lot.
I suggest, make an art about Spez getting gangbanged by investors and the admins and power tripping mods getting cucked
