r/place was a ton of fun and I'm both happy and sad that it's over now. I'm really glad I got to actually participate in something big with the MLP fandom in 2022 and feel like I contributed. Pony Town events are fun but I'm just sort of an anonymous lurker there and not involved.
I think I'm experiencing a variant of post-con depression now? But overall I feel good.
@NovaSquirrel What's r/place?

@Felthry It's an April Fools Day event that Reddit did where there's a large shared canvas that users can change pixels on, but there's a 5 minute cooldown, so in order to make anything big (and keep art from being vandalized or overwritten with something else) you have to work together with other people, resulting in lots of groups popping up, as well as alliances between groups as people defend each others' art.
Reddit previously did it in 2017 and they did it again this year.
@NovaSquirrel oh we've seen a couple of video game streamers who have a thing like that on their stream layout, where people in the chat can change pixels
