turns out I did my math wrong, so it’s a little less than 30 days

✨ this year’s event also supports the entire fediverse not just Lemmy!

you can get update announcements on other fedi platforms with @[email protected] link

chat about Canvas on Matrix or Discord (they’re bridged)

We had a lot of participants last year, but much of Lemmy didn't know about it happening because there wasn't a lot of notice in advance. This time we get a bit more notice.

Do we want to plan what to do in advance?

I think a bit of planning wouldn't go amiss

We did well last year (and also helped aussie.zone towards the end)

Yeah, last year we started small with the little "lemmy.nz", and added more and more on as we were getting through it quicker than expected. This year we could possibly plan out what we want ahead of time with more ambition to try to get something that covers similar stuff but is more cohesive.

I’ll follow whatever plan you guys come up with! I don’t know if I’ll be able to spend as much time on it as last time though

I'm no artist, but I can try to come up with something. I'm not sure how much time I'll have either! Hopefully we can do a decent job anyway.
