Brony r/Place 2024
What we know:
A credible individual from the r/Place community claims to have an inside source which says Reddit plans to host a r/Place event every year in June to celebrate Reddit's anniversary.
The June rumor seems very credible. Just as Reddit was originally planning to do it June 2023 and delayed until July because of API protests, they seem to have similar plans for this year which are likely to take place unless they delay again for some reason.
April 7th: Bronies host their first public mod meeting of the year. This accompanies various preparations and Discord server updates over the coming weeks.
March 22nd: Snakeroom announces a lack of information regarding any specific April Fools event, but acknowledges the fact r/Place is still ready to go behind the scenes and "Reddit is indeed working on something related to r/Place." A followup Snakeroom announcement shares the fact r/Place assets were removed from the iOS app for an upcoming update. If it's ever added back to the app store it'll be solid evidence of an imminent event.
March 19th: Member of the brony r/Place server, Starshine, notices a name change to the r/Place assets. The generic codename "BakedPotatoBundle.bundle" was changed to the much more obvious name of "RPlaceBundle.bundle".
March 15th: A credible individual from the r/Place community claims to have an inside source which says Reddit plans to host a r/Place event every year in June to celebrate Reddit's anniversary. This claim seems credible as their position in the community is quite notable and it's not just some random person making this stuff up.
