3 HOURS!!

https://canvas.fediverse.events

i would also like to know what countries have participated this year!

i'm planning to sell canvas posters to help fund the project and any future events i would love to run

stickers for the following instances will also be sold to support them:

  • mastodon.world
  • toot.community
  • blahaj.zone
  • lemmy.world
  • toast.ooo
  • Canvas 2024

i've spent a little over half the last year to rewrite canvas from the ground up and it's been very very fun running the event so far, stressful, but fun :)

if you're interested in getting a print, drop your country below so i can calculate everything and make sure it's available

if everything goes to plan the prints should be available after the event ends ๐Ÿคž

for anyone else coming to this post:

the best way to get in contact with staff as fast as possible is via the Matrix room or the Discord

also on Canvas, by clicking the chat button in the top right

[-] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

it's on a resource-constrained server, which gitlab doesn't like causing it to restart every one in a while

[-] [email protected] 12 points 12 hours ago

canvas is also open source, if you want to contribute or just poke around you can find the source at https://git.sc07.company/sc07/canvas

self-hosted gitlab instance with account approvals turned on

on this post, right click -> copy image url

then on canvas open settings, paste in the url into template url and enable the template

once it's loaded you can move it around by holding down ALT and dragging the template to where you want

after then you can just copy the website url (it should be much longer now)

No size change as a result of the polls

68% of the canvas has pixels on it, lets try to get it filled!!

24h - 72h Timelapses:

go place pixels!

[-] [email protected] 30 points 1 day ago

this would be very cool

once the event concludes i'll be releasing a log file with all the pixel placements for other visualizations

if whoever wants to tackle this would like, i might be able to get it as a subdomain of .fediverse.events

forgot to add web workers to that list, but i'm not entirely sure if it would be possible without those things

templates require webgl to do anything related to image manipulation

web workers i've seen also get disabled, but without those the website will freeze for quite a bit while it renders the canvas

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

yeah :(

but according to metrics we're slowly building back up

(timeframe: 12 hours ago to now)

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Canvas depends on WebGL, HTML5 canvases, web workers and local storage, if those are disabled it won't load

i'll work on adding a popup for that, kinda slipped through the cracks

and for completeness, the login page uses cookies, otherwise you won't be able to login

(yes i'm catching up on posts lol)

oh hey the canvas also looks a bit different...

If this is your first Canvas post you've seen...

Canvas is a collaborative pixel canvas, much similar to r/place
