Someone has organised a Lemmy version of r/place at https://lemmy.nz/post/741632
The site uses your lemmy account, but doesn’t require your password. Instead it will send a message to your lemmy account to verify it’s you. I had to try a couple of times to get it working but it worked in the end.
You can jump straight to the canvas here: https://canvas.toast.ooo
Yeah I agree. I’ve seen other comments on that too. They have already changed the cooldown so you can place each pixel more often (down to 30 seconds).
It’s nice being able to make something without having to compete for space with others, though.
