Feedback & Future Events
Hope you enjoyed the event as much as I and the moderators did! If you have any feedback, feature requests, or really anything, drop it in this thread (include any fun event ideas you have as well!)
Canvas Prints ✨
Bringing the Canvas prints back this year, but only for like 2 weeks. Once August 1st rolls around, the shop will close again. (You'll also be able to buy any previous year's prints)
International shipping is a pain, so this year the shop will only let you checkout with an address in the United States. But! if you are wanting to get a print, but are not in the US, fill out this form and I'll see what I can do :)
Source
Just as always, Canvas is an open source project! If you want to take a peek at the code, report and issue directly to the tracker, or even contribute yourself, the source is available on sc07.dev
You can register either with your Fediverse account, or with an email and password. Unfortunately due to a lot of casino bots, registration is behind an approval queue. Send an email to hello@sc07.com if you'd like to ensure I see it

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
Keep the current size (1000x500)
the canvas is currently 60% filled
that was a major hiccup this time around i wasn't expecting the event to be this large and this wanted, but i do have plans to market it a bit better this year
if you use Mastodon or Matrix check out this post
The instances page at join-lemmy is completely automated
This definitely needs to get pushed to the two main devs for lemmy as they control that website
It was very difficult notifying people of the event, but I am planning to run another one next year!
Make sure you're in the Lemmy community (!canvas@toast.ooo) and the Matrix space so you don't miss it!
the pxls backend was spammed by reports done by the software itself (such as "account logged in with ip shared with 2,000 other users" due to a bug related to reverse proxy settings)
a lot of them we just couldn't get to because the aforementioned bug created 60+ pages of reports with no bulk delete or filter options
next year's system will be a lot better setup to avoid these types of issues happening tho!
as far as I'm aware, this is the first r/place-like event for Lemmy
exapsy might be talking about Reddit's r/place from last year tho
Change the cooldown
- Cooldown to 30s
- Override cooldown to 1m

I apologize, there has been some miscommunication to the moderators and lack of judgment on my part
I did not expect canvas to get this big this fast, I will talk to the moderators and make sure everyone is on the same page to prevent things like this from happening
Since the video doesn’t auto-play and it doesn’t fall under, what I would consider NSFL, I will be reverting your ban, I apologize for the misunderstanding
message me on matrix if you have anymore questions!
I personally really enjoy Matrix but it’s not really a “fediverse” thing but it is a federated end to end encrypted messaging platform

MODERATOR OF
Lemmy has some gotchas with handling federated direct messages, which is probably the snag happening here
Lemmy v0.19 and earlier (which includes the vast majority of Lemmy instances) only accept ChatMessage object types, which aren't supported on most implementations
They have an "in progress" implementation of the "Note" object type for direct messages (which almost every other implementation uses), but it hasn't landed yet from the looks of it
