thank you for the order, glad it arrived :)

for anyone else coming to this post wanting a poster you can get your own (it also supports the project!)

https://sc07.shop/category/canvas-2024/

there's also last year's poster and various instance stickers (proceeds of which go to those instances)

also if you get a poster, adding stickers won't affect the shipping cost

[–] grant@toast.ooo 5 points 3 months ago

i'd say pretty good, i've gotten 6 orders total (all of which being shipped out last week) 🎉

i tried making a couple posts for the posters but they didn't too much traction so i assumed people weren't interested 😅

(in order of being posted)

  1. toast.ooo post url
  2. toast.ooo post url - same post but grants.cafe link
  3. toast.ooo post url

i'll make a post in !fediverse@lemmy.world later today most likely, just got back from a well needed vacation lol 🌴

Get Canvas 2024 & 2023 prints, and stickers to support various instances!

i've added this as an issue so i don't lose it

i suggested two additional changes in the issue as a comment, i'll copy them here for completeness:

  • only allow this to happen if the surrounding area also hasn't been interacted by anyone else (maybe like a 5x5 around the pixel) to be undone by the eraser
  • only works for pixels placed within the last 5 minutes

i didn't end up getting to this before the event ended, but this should be added for next year

here's the issue in the tracker for it :)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

there's an issue to add support for undoing pixels with bans, but that would mainly get used in very bad circumstances and wouldn't be the default

as others have mentioned, there's not going to be anything that automatically does actions against IPs, instead opting for a flag that moderations can look into further

i've also mentioned somewhere else in the thread, but i wouldn't want to punish new accounts as, especially this year, it brings new people to the Fediverse and i don't want to hamper the growth of that :) (it also isn't very possible to get a reliable creation date of new accounts because of how the fediverse is designed)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago

i'm glad :) it was very fun to run after all

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like a cool concept, i've added it to the issue tracker to not lose it :)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

i've created an issue for the lower cooldowns for smaller instances

sounds like a neat idea imo :)

and for the second suggestion, i'd like to avoid imposing restrictions on new accounts as Canvas has brought a lot of people to the fediverse and i wouldn't want to hamper their contributions because they just found out about it

[–] grant@toast.ooo 1 points 3 months ago

i've added the overlay toggles as an issue so i can keep track of it :)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago

added this as an issue to keep track of :)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago

as well as this one, i've added it as an issue to keep track of it :)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 months ago

this one also seems neat, added it as an issue to keep track of :)

 

have you been working on a tool to show information related to canvas? want to share it around/get input?

Data files:

Repos:

if you would like me to host it on a subdomain of .fediverse.events post a comment below explaining your project

 

Full Timelapse: PeerTube, YouTube, Raw File

Canvas poster

🚨🚨🚨 You can now pre-order the posters!!

https://sc07.shop/

These are pre-orders, the first orders will be shipped out August 1st following the shipping information listed on the site

Most countries are supported if yours is not listed, send me an email hello@sc07.company or comment below 💜

Instance Stickers

Proceeds from instance stickers go to their respective instances 💞

Direct Donations

If you would like to directly donate to Canvas w/o making any purchases, I accept donations via Stripe 💜

(i wasn't clear on the stripe page that the fediverse handles would be public, so this is a placeholder until i get confirmation they all want it public or not)

Support

If you are having issues with the website, send an email to hello@sc07.company

Database Dump

the old system for pixel placement logs was flawed, and someone suggested the brilliant idea of just publishing the database dump, it already has all the information anyway

no ip addresses, or ban logs only pixel placements (with username), pixel moderation logs and palette settings

[2024] Thank you for participating!! (social.fediverse.events)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by grant@toast.ooo to c/canvas@toast.ooo
 

the event has concluded! thank you all for participating!

this has been incredibly fun to run, as it was last year (although there was a bit more hiccups this time around)

⚠ Crossposters: link back to this post as it will be updated with more information ⚠

Event date: July 12th, 2024 @ 4am UTC til ~~July 15th @ 4am UTC (72 hours)~~ July 16th @ 4am UTC (72 hours + 24 hours) (it was extended due to a massive performance issue that caused major downtime)

Future events

I'm planning to host another one next year, so stay tuned 👀

If you have suggestions for canvas 2025 or any other events, post them in this post (thanks Ategon)

Supporting the project 💜💜💜

I have spent a little over 6 months completely rebuilding Canvas from the ground up to support future features, and i would love to work on more fediverse events

poster sales

posters of the final canvas will be sold, if you would like to stay updated with information on those, follow the Mastodon account or send an email to hello@sc07.company 💜

https://sc07.shop/

the shop site will also include stickers for the following instances:

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

✨ I wanted to have the shop setup before the event ending, but i couldn't get it setup quick enough unfortunately

EDIT: Shop is now live!

direct donations

Donating via Stripe is the best way to donate directly

contributing to the code

canvas is open-source and is on a self-hosted gitlab instance at https://git.sc07.company/sc07/canvas

at time of writing; the gitlab server randomly restarts due to resource limits

Timelapses

i need to rewrite the timelapse script as some people pointed out some weirdness with the other ones (that's also what delayed this post by almost 3 hours)

Data

Database dump: (48mb) https://cdn.sc07.company/canvas/2024/canvas-stripped.sql.txt

Contains pixel placements, canvas moderation actions, and palette colors no IP addresses

chat.fediverse.events

This will stay up as long as i can keep it running for, i'll make some improvements eventually as well

tools (like a canvas atlas)

if anyone is wanting to build something for canvas, i'd be willing to host the project & give it a subdomain of .fediverse.events

just send me a matrix dm, a dm on discord (grahhnt) or an email hello@sc07.company

Special thanks

thank you to the moderators that helped me this year, even with how stressful it was 🔨

and the contributors to the code once the event started: 💻

  • Ategon
  • Marius
  • soda_cans

and thank you, once again, for participating this year, i hope you enjoyed it as much as i did 💜

i'm going to now go enjoy my 21st 🥳🎉

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 🤞
