Reddit is bringing back r/Place at perhaps the worst possible time::Reddit is bringing back r/Place — a collaborative project where individual users can edit pixels on a giant canvas — at a time when user dissatisfaction with the platform is very high.

You are missing the point. People will return there to partake. r/place was immensely popular.

Most people expected a 5 year wait. So for most people this becomes a refreshing surprise. And for the duration of the event, many people on Lemmy will return to Reddit. They will partake in organising pixelart and thereby getting pulled back into Reddit communities.
