I get more Reddit news on Lemmy than I did on Reddit.
Completely logical as much of it is removed on Reddit and many of us are curious about our old stomping grounds. It’s the people complaining about it that are getting tiring.
Yeah I’m satisfied by reading about it though Lemmy so I don’t actually have to go there
Legit. It’s been great, keeping up while not having to actually do anything that might support reddit.
Eh, the only problem I have is that it spills into so many communities and that makes it hard to curate your feed. Personally, I do want to see some Reddit stuff. I’m both curious and just plain amused by the drama. But I don’t want my feed dominated by it and try to limit my subscriptions of Reddit related communities.
Plus I don’t view this as a meme.
I think this should be the last of it until Reddit’s IPO, the administration team is just going to sit back and pretend nothing happened in the mean time.
It depends on how much Reddit wants to follow in Elon Musk’s steps in destroying their service.
I tried to escape from r/place posts, but couldn’t
Apes together still giving Reddit traffic.
It’s like writing anti-walmart propaganda on a thousand one dollar bills and then spending them all at Walmart.
meh. I’m not interested in participating, but for a short uptick in user activity, a bunch of tech journals will be writing about this and they’ll come up is searches about /r/place for years to come. It will be a net lose for spez.
Tiny, insignificant amount of traffic to send a lasting messagem. Worth it.
Looks like a shitload of people accessing it several times a day, some watching it like hawks, and an entire genre of Reddit refugees who’ve taken to advertising it on a daily basis.
:NOWAY: Not the 400 people advertising Lemmy vs the at least 30 million Bots and the few million Reddit users.
Look at this and tell me we are a statistic.
This. It’s honestly hilarious people keep parroting that “that’s still engagement” BS like we’re a force to be reckoned with compared to reddit.
It’s like getting $10 from Musk and thinking its6gonna hurt him in a significant way. Lmao.
It’s mostly bots anyway.
Personally only use Reddit read-only, with ad blocker and anti-tracking. Though I find that I don’t like read-only very much, so I’m spending less and less time on Reddit.
yeah but lowkey how funny would it be if that was the final r/place image they’ve gotta solidify in history
Have they actually been censoring it? I keep hearing that the fuck Spez stuff is being deleted but Idk if they’re doing it or it’s just getting overwritten lol
honestly think it’s just the people writing fk spez arent staying on long enough to upkeep it, or just dont care about reddit enough. THOUGH im pretty sure mods were caught using their unlimited pixels last r/place
Wont everyone leave after r/place ends? Does it matter if the extra traffic is only temporary?
Will they? I think theyre gonna find a new way to complain about reddit while still using reddit
Thank you to everyone that contributed to this beautiful piece of art🫡
Whose spez?
He’s the Reddit CEO and allegedly has sex with cats
I need some fuckin’ eye bleach. But this is beautiful… in a sense.
Also a moderator or r/jailbait
Back then you could make any user a mod without having to accept.
Oh, that’s probably true.
Wat
Woha wait. I missed these allegations, and I’m too dumb to tell if this is just a joke or a joke based on real allegations
It’s sort of true from my understanding. He was added as moderator back when you could add anyone without them accepting it
I knew the jailbait thing, not the cat allegations. Is spez just a furry or are we talking bestiality here?
Oh I deleted my comment right after posting because I thought you were replying to someone else. It’s weird though because it shows itself as deleted for me but it also shows the comment got votes on it.
AFAIK though the cat thing is just a meme about Garfield lol
Yeah I sometimes also confuse who is answering who in Jerboa… And Lemmy won’t remove your comment from other instances that already synced with yours. It takes longer I hear.
No worries!
I need someone to give me context or so help me god
Not me.
Fucking cowards erasing it
That’s how it always ends
It’s beautiful because it existed for one fleeting moment in time.
That’s how the second one ended, not the first one. The first one actually had a final image.
That’s how it ends. Only white pixels can be placed now, and eventually they’ll turn the rest white as well.
Erasing the art that had nothing to do with the protest. Now they’re just turning the bystanders against them as well.
You should use his real name, so people outside of reddit will fuck him too.
Steve Huffman, that the piece of shit you talking about?
Yup, that’s the one. Hit him professionally.
stop using reddit
More like “botnets strong”. That’s what really soured me on the second /r/place, it was completely taken over by crypto fanatics and meme stock morons running bots.
why are people indulging this company after all they did?
How does r/space (or whatever) actually work, anyway? Do you only get to edit X amount of pixels per day or something? I imagine they’d have to limit it in some way, or it would change too much too quickly.
You get to place one pixel every so-and-so minutes only. To build anything of size people need to collaborate.
But in reality it’s just a bunch of neckbeards with 100 reddit accounts each and a script to paint a bitmap
previously it was one pixel every five minutes, I don’t know about now though, as I deleted my account
Man yall really showed spez by using his.website and giving his site traffic!
Apes together still dumb
Buy DRS repeat
