With the flood of new people to Lemmy, I think everyone is busy with making sure that everything is working as intended, the servers are running, and other basic needs. So in my opinion it might be a good idea to bring it up at a future date (I might be wrong idfk) but anyways I love the idea of big events like r/place offered I think it would be great

IIRC the place code was open source and there's a couple of other similar versions online already.

We could organise to run one once a year or something, I'm sure.

that's a great idea, but organising a place-like equivalent on the fediverse is probably low down on the priority list and requires a lot of work to implement.

Ooh! That's a neat question.

I'm going to say not on Lemmy (since Lemmy by definition is for what we're doing right now), but yes on the Fediverse. And maybe you could embed it in Lemmy somehow.

What did you enjoy about it

Canada finally getting the leaf right was cathartic.

I enjoy marsey being erased by reddit admins, video making it to the all time top of r/place, and making people aware of rdrama.net

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes I would also love that, but I think it's going to be some time before fediverse is ready for it. One day I'm sure.

Would need to be hosted on a seperate website entirely. Thats all reddit really did when you think about it. And instead of it being tied to reddit you just have it open to everyone who wishes to participate.
