Its a trap. The best way to fight reddit is to not even engage. Imagine r/place was left blank because no one was there.

Especially since it was revealed Reddit employees had access to /r/places without a timer. They'd just fill it with random shit if it was dead (which it won't be, because streamers will get people to flock there regardless).

One massive, throbbing, pixelated John Oliver.

It's funny how individually we can do the right thing but together is a whole other beast.
