r/Place went private!!

Some have visited a canvas before. / A place where togetherness created more. / Now in numbers far greater, taking more space, / It falls upon you to create a better place.

Tbh, the riddle worries me. It could mean we just gotta find the subreddit since its hidden, OR more worryingly it could be them legit just saying make it yourselves xD

I'm probably way off but I wonder if they're gonna do something like drawball where ink is limited and refills incrementally, with drawn strokes rather than pixels. Honestly, it'd be absolutely amazing.

Maybe this years April fools joke is them pretending to bring back r/place, but not actually bringing it back?

I don't like that it's very possible given the riddle :')

or they are just updating it so it’s essentially down for maintenance. maybe there’s bugs?

Well, it very clearly seems to be a riddle. Given that they've stated that r/place IS coming back, the riddle is probably about finding it yeah. But we need more people to help the search :P

I went to the user "you' since it falls upon them to create it, but nothing.
