r/place being filled with API protest signs would be really hilarious
99 0 ReplyBut isn't that just giving Reddit more traffic and doing exactly what spez wants us to do? 
44 0 ReplyOh I wouldn't give spez the satisfaction of me giving him traffic. I'm more talking about the redditors who are still there for some reason.

Use an ad blocker and the traffic is of little value to them. Especially if it only goes to /r/place and doesn't allow to create much of a profile.

14 0 ReplyI think with the amount of things people are planning to draw the canvas is going to look pretty empty if they remove all of them. Plus, if you wrote something like "API" in small letters everywhere on the canvas they'd have a hard time keeping up

I went easy on myself. I vowed to never comment or post on that account... buuuut I didn't say I wouldn't place any dots in protest.
Hmmm I wonder if the V O I D will win out this time.

I've been working with some other people on discord. The plan is to spam the entire canvas with tiny API's like amogus was last time. We've got it down to 4x7 pixels

Anyone over there using the service and still trying to protest are just lost.
They already went through the hard part PR wise
