There’s a QR code on r/place that links here and it seems some of the pixels are suddenly changing without any users attached to those changes – unlike everywhere else
Video taken from this post:
They did last year as well. I recall there being some racy stuff that was being blocked out by black boxes placed by the admins, and people were able to track admin and mod accounts (like spez) that were placing pixels instantly with no cooldown. People were pissed then already, and the admin/mod response was basically “get wrecked we too smort lulz”
Place even last year was blatantly a ploy to give reddit more free and controllable content.
also there are bot tools that can effectively print images straight to the canvas with thousands of bot accounts, and have them automatically maintained and repaired.
Theres no fun in it with shit like that going on.
