Taking bets all the "fuck spez" will magically start to get uncontrollably overwritten a few minutes before the canvas closes...

You were right, most of those messages have already been replaced by pictures. It was expected but it's still disappointing that redditors can't do something together.

Video proof of the admins' manipulation - removing the guillotine with splotches of pixels.

EDIT: the press already took notice of the protests in r/place.

So the guillotine didn't survive, huh?

[–] Holodeck_Moriarty@lemm.ee 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There are videos of admins blatantly removing it.

That's hilarious. And sad. I wouldn't be surprised if they feigned stupidity and claimed that the users were "glorifying violence" with the guillotine.

[–] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yet they left it visible in their own public video recap ( and the removal)

[–] lvxferre@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

They want censorship, they just aren't very good at it.

Love seeing the fight continues. Hoped to see some fediverse propaganda along with it. However, I'm personally not really interested in taking part in anything that makes me use that website, so it's understandable.

I wonder if we could pull something similar off...

[–] thepaperpilot@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

It'd be interesting to see how that would work with federation. But conceptually implementing any kind of event that works across instances is a fascinating idea.

Not till we have a lot more people. There are smaller place clones, but they're not nearly as interesting

The canvas size just needs to be relative to the size of the userbase. If there's no competition for space, it's less interesting.
