Should Lemmy consider implementing a collaborative pixel art feature similar to Reddit's r/place? (lemmy.world)

As many of you may know, Reddit's r/place is a popular social experiment that allows users to collaborate on a massive digital canvas by placing one pixel every few minutes. It fostered community engagement, creativity, and even some friendly competition between different groups.

Given Lemmy's focus on community-driven content and open-source principles, I'm curious about your thoughts on potentially introducing a similar feature:

Questions:

Do you think a Lemmy version of r/place would be beneficial for our platform? Why or why not?
How could such a feature be implemented in a way that aligns with Lemmy's values and decentralized structure?
What potential challenges or drawbacks do you foresee with introducing this type of collaborative art project?
If implemented, how often should such an event occur? Annually, quarterly, or as a one-time experiment?
What unique twists or improvements could Lemmy add to make this feature stand out from Reddit's version?

I suspect the functionality you're interested in is supplied from https://ourworldoftext.com/home/ and/or https://ourworldofpixels.com/ so I don't think that putting effort into replicating that is the most important thing to work on.
