I was watching it for a little while, and it makes me sad that so many people are just spending all their time griefing the pride flags.
Then I realised that it’s actually pretty telling. At the end of each r/place event, Reddit end up with a piece of art that represents the communities.
With all the people who’ve moved out, if r/place 2023 ends up full of angry text and swastikas, that’s going to be more damaging than low engagement. And I wouldn’t be surprised at all if that’s what they end up with.

I doubt reddit won’t try to sanitize place like last time
