Best protest would be if people didn't obsess over clicking pixels in r/place, giving the site traffic. I can't stand these people.

Who could have foreseen this?

Over the last few hours, many of the "FUCK SPEZ" drawings have started to be taken over by other image, causing users to suggest that Reddit admins are interfering with their art (there is no evidence so far that would prove this).

Can't you track who draws the pixels and timing of said pixels or some shit?

It was the worst time to run Place, but it was also the best time to run Place

Journals talking about it is a great thing, a pixel that holds 5 minutes will have a small impact, a jour Al that is indexed and appears when you write "Reddit" online, will have an even bigger impact

Especially with apps like memmy and avelon, the fediverse is much better than reddit will ever be. Now if only everyone knew about them. And reddit users just stopped using reddit.
