Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
r/place is a reddit event with a large canvas where each user can place one pixel every 5 minutes. The point is that communities come together and create artwork collaboratively.
When the event ends, instead of erasing the canvas all at once, users are allowed to place only white pixels so they gradually erase their own creations.
This year, the users decided to use these final minutes to write "Fuck Spez" in giant print across the entire canvas, using only the white pixels.

Reddit has put up r/place again (a community collaborative project where you can place a pixel every 5 minutes) despite this usually happening during the week of April Fool's. The top comments on the post announcing it's opening are all calling it out for being an obvious ploy to increase engagement due to all the site's recent bad press and the actual canvas has "fuck spez" (the ceo) written all over it lol
