Reddit Place: what is it, how to add a pixel, rules, and when it ends
Reddit Place is back in 2023 for communities to wage war for a space in a massive pixel wall, and you can join the fight. Here’s how.
Reddit has brought back the most followed campaign by the community: r/place. The pixel festival among millions of players returns in its 2023 edition. Don’t worry if its name doesn’t ring a bell. It probably sounds more familiar to you if we tell you that it is the great work of art where communities struggle to design their own image by collaborating with others. A multitude of content creators meet in a very followed event on the internet. We tell you everything you need to know.
How can you participate in Reddit Place 2023?
To participate in Reddit Place 2023 you must have a registered profile on Reddit. It is very simple. You just have to fill in here a nickname, your email, and a password that the account you are creating will have. After accepting the link in the verification email, your journey through this social network will begin.
When you have it, visit the official Reddit Place channel that you will find in this link. You will see the current state of the canvas in real-time from your browser and a message at the bottom that says”Place your pixel”. Click on it. At that moment you will see a peephole that accurately transmits the location of the pixel that you will place. If you want to place it elsewhere, simply move the cursor. Choose the color in the dropdown below and you will be ready to put your stamp on the global wall.
Reddit Place Rules
You should keep in mind that you will not always be able to place a pixel. For the game to follow a more or less coherent order, you will have to wait five minutes until you can place another. Reddit Place only works on the modern version of the social network. If you play from mobile you can also join from the official application on iOS and Android.
One of the novelties this year is the possibility that moderators can set canvas ordinates to their subreddit, in addition to other options that speed up the display of the canvas.
How long will this Reddit Place last?
Reddit does not provide prior information on the duration of this pixel festival, although we can get an idea from previous editions. In 2017 the event lasted 72 hours, while in 2022 it remained active for four days, so we will have to be attentive to Reddit itself marking the end of the event.
