What would an r/place-like Fediverse event look like?

Magiwarriorx@lemmy.world to Fediverse@lemmy.world – 45 points –

I know this has crossed the minds of more than a few people here over the past several days.

What would that event look like? A new platform that implements ActivityPub and attempts to federate somehow? A completely separate site (à la pxls.space) related only in spirit? Something in between?

Further, how do you think it would play out, given the difference in our userbase and Reddit's?

Funny how all the "Fuck Spez" tiles have disappeared

Maybe I'm whoosh-ing your comment, but the link I provided is not the reddit's place, but a non-reddit alternative

Thank you for the clarification.

I thought that reddit fanatic mods have overwritten things.

There have been a couple of these, though this one is new to me!

It always makes me sad that they never seem to gain much traction. It seems like disconnected from a larger platform (and potentially the exclusive time window?) they never draw many users.
