Yeah, while for some the new 2022's doesnt compare to 2017's, this one definitely has a lot of its own charm, and is a really nice way to showcase how different the internet has changed in just 5 years. Were it be a semi constant event, I think it being every 5 years is a good sweet spot. Not often enough to bore and is also enough time to have new communities and events flourish inbetween each.

One week in July is perfect though, good vibes already and loads of people are back home or at holiday in hotels. I feel like not that many people will mind R/Place returning. It will create time capsules of those specific years as well
