This invention is going to last for a few days and if you desire to edit the canvas with colored pixels, you will be thought how to do it here.
What is r/place?
r/place is a sub-Reddit where social experiment on Reddit is hosted.
It features a large white space that can be filled with many colored pixels by Reddit-users who are logged in on the website.
The users can place one pixel at a time, once every five minutes, by simply tapping on it.
“The r/place experiment was a large success among the Reddit users having attracted over 16 million tiles from a million people,” The Verge.
How long will it last and how to do it?
r/place started on April 1 at 9am ET. It’s open for all users to engage until midnight on April 5.
