Start changing all the /r/ subreddit advertisements to /c/. That’s the most strategic way to send the message.
That’s very clever.
Users have even gone full French revolution but admins are quite obviously blanking it out every few minutes with a db overwrite.
Very onbrand for the french
The text in the german flag area translates to
u/spez is a son of a removed
You can swear on the internet. Violence? Gore? No problem!
A bad word? Son of a removed, we’re all going to die.
Edit: Wtf, there is a swear filter? Fuck.
Interesting. You can say fuck but son of a bitch is censored… what about son of a fuck?
Might be it doesn’t filter edits
Oh yeah hadn’t thought of that
Fuck a bitch maybe?
But my point was that ‘bitch’ was being censored in his comment, but not ‘fuck’
So it’d still be fuck a removed
Plus I gotta be honest, not a fan of that one. Like how people aren’t a fan on moist.
Kyle’s mom’s a bitch…
u/spez is a son of bïtch
Is b word not allowed on lemmy.ml?
slurs in general are not allowed on lemmy.ml
Changing it to “removed” instead just drives the euphemism treadmill faster, people will find ways to say the same without those specific words. Whether something is a slur is also very context-dependent. Something computers as of yet aren’t well equipped to handle.
Yeah it’s censored :/
Well how am I supposed to reference a female dog then?
Iirc, lemmy.ml is a specifically leftist instance, right? They may have banned the word because of its sexist nature. A bit like allowing fuck, but not allowing the other f word that generally applies to gay men. Swearing isn’t the issue, slurs or derogatory terms are.
Small test: Dio porco Cunt Vaffanculo Hurensohn Dickhead
deleted by creator
That’s pretty gay
Sincerely, a gay dude
Just fyi, i used the w word because it is the most accurate translation. Hurensohn means Sohn einer Hure, Son einer Hure, Son of a Hure, Son of a removed
For anyone who wants to swear in german, just say
who rain zone
But fast
male descendant of a prostitute.
“Offspring of a harlot”
No, it translate to “son of a prostitute”.
What a joke is this the US? For europeans these swear words are fine. u/spez ist ein HÜR3ns0hn
The flags are so braindead. Who gives a fuck about your country?
Normally, I would agree with you. But, I would like to offer a different point of view simply because this is a platform on the internet where the vast majority of the users seem to be from the US.
On a project like r/place, I kind of see that as a showing of people saying hey, we use this site, we are here everyday, there’s lots of us, and we’re from this country!
Some people are proud, or want to show representation
And as a citizen of one of these countries I say that’s fucking dumb.
Yeah, I find it frightening. It indicates a lot of blind nationalism on a fairly passionate level. Nothing good comes from that.
Higher traffic stats means higher user engagement. It helps with higher valuation for the IPO.
If you want to hurt them, remove your content, do a GDPR request, and disengage. Focus on the Fediverse instead.
Only reason to bring r/pics now instead of April 1st was to drive the engagement, and by looks of it Reddit succeeded immensely in that.
They baited people and everyone bit it.
I don’t think anyone at Reddit cares what message is passed through this as long as they get traffic.
They are like Velma of social media
I wonder if there are any shared canvas things like this outside of Reddit? The idea is pretty neat.
I remember Drawball being pretty popular on 4chan back in the mid 2000s. It was a lot of fun.

Someone has done a similar thing here: https://drawball.io
oh god it’s pathetic… I remember very well the first r/place, then the second one was super cool too! But this one, wow, super pathetic :-( shame on reddit…
I mean employees aren’t dumb and any opportunity to make management look stupid for stupid decisions that likely cost themselves (remember they get stock) money they will 100% take.
That’s what I don’t get. How could they think that this wouldn’t happen?
I’m not sure I totally get it, what happened?
Going about as I expected.
Reddit does not care. It’s just engagement for them.
I never actually visited r/place, but it seems like it’s just drawball copied by Reddit. Is that accurate?
Nope. They have brought in the corporate ghoul consultants. There is no context or feeling the situation. Just “oh, this was really popular last time, let’s continue milking it, what could go wrong”.
