The Two Teens Charged In New Britain High School Sex Video Incidentannual Reddit Recap dropped Thursday morning and the year went...well...kind of how you'd expect.
For instance, the subreddit r/ukraine exploded in popularity, up 76,000 percent according to Reddit, sparked by Russia's invasion of the country and the ensuing war. It racked up 1.8 billion views. But the mostviewed subreddit was an old stalwart: r/AmITheAsshole, colloquially know as AITA. It's the place Redditors go to share stories and ask who the asshole is in that situation.
The subreddit r/place was a rising star this year. If you're not familiar, r/place is a project from Josh Wardle (yes, the creator of Wordle) where users are able to place a single pixel on a blank, digital canvas. Each pixel is on a timer, so it cannot be spammed endlessly, meaning groups of people work together to create art on that canvas by claiming space. The final result is typically a beautiful, strange mashup. Despite being a four-day event, r/place was the 16th most viewed subreddit this year.
