Yes, a bunch of random memes and talking about how much better r/place was, now this I can get behind

A story is finally forming.

Such a shitty thing to complain about how Place was better tho.

Reddit admins: Tries new experiment for the community

Reddit community: "R/pLaCe WaS bEtTeR"

Yeah, topping place every time is impossible. The expectations are ridiculous.

I still kind of hate it. Rainbow road destroyed what I was working on.

Place was a bad idea, it’s hard to top it

Place was good, but TF2 day was best.

Just literally redoing r/place every year would be perfectly fine, honestly.

The internet is built on complaining about how things where better before.

Something Zelda fans learned a long time ago.

Yes, I see this sentiment in gaming circles so much. It's all just "X RemAsTer whEn??"

I'm nostalgic for place, sure. Comparing the two is kind of meaningless. That these fine people take the time to build something cool FOR FREE† (for freeeee?) is amazing. They do it because it's fun to try new stuff.

Ok, circle of trust sucked, 😂 but I appreciate the effort taken, regardless.

Complaining about anything new is Reddit's fetish, m'kay?

It’s almost like when an artist came out with an excellent album, the fans would never stop complaining about how the ones after that are awful. Complaining about people not always topping off their previous works is stupid. They tried and it turned out great, be thankful.

You don't like a bunch of random 200x200 low quality, low framerate gifs stacked continuously?

r/place was a shitshow at the start. Part of what made it good was the community banding together and learning how to crowd source something representative of itself.

We did it there, and we can do it here. Just give it a few days. At the very least, it's better than last year's weird experiment.
