xQc came and totally wiped us out. We have a lot of work in front of us and we are a bit too small a team to hold this space if someone decides to take it from us. I’m really proud of how well we’ve been able to advertise Lemmy and fuck things up with our allies in Fuck Spez and Black Company (doing the 3rd party apps protest). Help us to close out /r/place with our banner intact!

We are rebuilding from the g at the end of the url at 38,-25

Chat is at https://app.element.io/#/room/#lemmyplace:data.haus

    Hmm, let me check the comments I made when they kicked off /r/place again last week. Oh, yes, there it is:

    I absolutely wouldn’t put it past [reddit] to either skew the accounts (admin accounts can change colors as much as they want!) or do something annoying like arranging for xQc and his little cult to grief the board again (which probably wouldn’t take much beyond someone telling him that he was welcome to do so).

    I should get a job as a prognosticator …

      I really doubt they worked with xQc on this.

      Not because I put it past them, but rather because he was gonna do this regardless

        I’m OOTL can someone explain why xQc even did this? Was it targeted?

        At least I’m in the loop enough to know that he and his chat at least have the attention span of a banana which is why it was so quickly rebuilt.

          He did it last year too. It just causes chaos, which is what his viewers enjoy.
