 * Placetris Discord Returns for 2023

Last year on April 1st, members of the Tetris community formed the Placetris Discord server and created several Tetris builds for the r/place Reddit event. This event lasted several days and allowed anyone to place a pixel every 5 minutes on a 2000x2000 canvas, which led to many communities building artwork that represented their community. Over the past week, several datamining leaks have shown that the r/place event will be returning again on April 1st, and the Placetris Discord has made plans to create a large 4w and the Tetris logo as well. For more information and to participate, join the Discord below! https://discord.gg/y6BUZwjzn8
