    Yeah - one of the great things about place was the sheer scale of the community. If you have a broad range of even pretty obscure interests, there was a chance you could find most of them on there burried away. In the previous few iterations, I must’ve helped like twelve different little things ranging from super well known video game murals to tiny little pixel art for obscure Japanese artists.

    In the '22 place, I helped lead a team to make a tiny 15×15 thing for our favourite kinda forgotten character from a game and it was an uphill battle but it was memorable. Here? That tiny 225 pixel face is the only rep for genshin impact and I miss the fun of planning something because it’s just me. Sure I could make something big (and I have expanded it to include other characters) by myself…but like, I want to make stuff for other groups and fandoms too, and I’m the only person who’ll do it.

    Don’t get me wrong, the canvas is fun and it’s not really the hoster’s fault, but it’s missing the collaboration part

      The amongi hidden everywhere along with blue corner are my two favorite parts of Reddit’s Place.
