Canvas is an event that is like reddit's r/place, where users can paint one pixel at a time and we all work together to make some art. You can see more at last year's conclusion post.

You use your Lemmy account to log in, where it messages you a code to confirm it's you (no password required). This year they have a one account per person rule, so we will need all hands on deck!

We have a template for the design we have put together, you can jump straight to Canvas with the template enabled by clicking this link: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=162&y=328&zoom=4&tu=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.nz%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F497358ad-b655-4ae1-9e42-ea70c303a63e.png&tw=112&tx=100&ty=300&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

The event starts today (Friday) at 4pm, and runs for 72 hours.

If you use Matrix (or are willing to use Matrix) join the chatroom by following the instructions here.

We can also use this post for coordination, or if anyone is having trouble getting logged in or other issues.

I tried, got the code, then a 400 bad request.

Try again 😆. There are teething issues, and the main dev has been doing patches to fix things several times. When this happens, the server goes down for a few minutes each time. Many bugs are being resolved but there are still some quirks.

I'd suggest to try to follow through the process again and see if you get it working. If not, try again tomorrow.

I placed a pixel. Oh yeah!

Nice! At the moment I'm just working on securing the edges before I go to bed, by colouring the appropriate pixels just around the edge. Hopefully that stops anyone overwriting our progress while we sleep.
