    Thanks for the clarification. I’ve been wondering all day how I was on Reddit for years and never saw this. It’s because I purposely stayed off the site (and most of the internet for that matter) on April 1st every damn year.

      I’ve been told that it works something like each user is allowed to paint one pixel every two hours or so, so it really is about coordination with other users, and big images require a huge system of users. I’ve never seen it either, even without trying to avoid it

        That was the idea, but it quickly turns into a stupid turf war between twitch streamers and bots.
