I don’t understand why r/place is back, 2017 and 22 were very popular. I can only imagine they trying to drive traffic after the exodus. Anybody have insight?

Trying to put a bandaid on a gash, maybe. Also you can only use place on new Reddit or the official app. And you have to verify your email. So they could try to show off to investors that they have this many verified users, or this much increase in users even after the fiasco.
