If you spend time watching /r/place you see that pictures mostly form in a natural, progressive way. This is the only place you see hundreds of pixels being changed uniformly all at once. Even bots would be making more gradual changes than this. It’s clearly someone who has a brush tool for censoring.
There is tremendous value in pursuing evidence for the things we believe, rather than spending life totally convinced that our first assumption is always the truth
I actually saw that happen in real time, did we confirm it was an admin action?
All the pixels came in at the same time

Wasn’t an admin caught doing something similar last time place came around?
Yeah and when I pointed it out I copped 3 day suspension with no message
Idk how many times this has to happen before people stop giving them the benefit of the doubt.
Wouldn’t surprise me, Reddit admins keep acting in the same bad faith ways, but now we have a viable alternative platform
Chtorr was their name, iirc.
Yes, that rings a bell
Random pixels? At this time of Reddit? In this part of r/place? Localized entirely on spez’s head?
Yes!
Can I see it?
No.
I’m sure it was just by chance.
Oh, we can all agree it’s not random at this point…
It’s the Admins, the new pixels don’t have any usernames attached to them.
Probably a bit then
Who else? Seriously… Who else?
Literally anyone with 20 bots.
