    In some ways maybe but the fact there is enough space for everyone and people don’t have to fight for it kinda defeats the most interesting aspects of Place if you ask me.

      I strongly disagree. When everybody has a space and opportunity to draw is when it’s the most fun :)

      Otherwise, it just turns into a toxic and unpleasant experience

    Looking at the screenshot at least, it looks like a load of computer nerds got together to respectfully collaborate instead of fighting over space like what happens on /r/place. I love it.

      Yeah, I got tired trying to make one myself and took a long nap. When I got up, someone tried to finish part of it by filling up a large portion and correctly guessing which colors without having any idea what I was going for.

      That’s heartwarming.

    When Place first happened it was such a phenomenon, I think nothing that tries to copy it will ever come close.

    Even Reddit’s follow-ups have been much less fun than the first one.

      I wasn’t around for 2017 but 2022 was the most fun I’ve had with internet strangers in years, if not ever. Also no one was ready for the expanding canvas and everyone scrambling over it was beautiful.

    We have the blue corner we have the OSU logo, we have the German flag, and we have the crewmates. This feels complete, yes.

      Nah, something is missing.

      I don’t see a “connection timed out” corner. I don’t see a Windows taskbar. I don’t see people replicating Bad Apple. It feels wrong to not have these.

        There is a Bad Apple frame in the upper part, at least. Not really the same but we’re getting there.
