Thanks for joining in! The canvas is now finished!
I’m going to be leaving the canvas up and read-only for a couple days, but not too long.
This was incredibly fun to host, thank you all for participating! ♥
Event date: August 4th (12:00am EST) - 6th (11:59pm EST)
Future Events
I’d love to make this a yearly event. Expanding from just Lemmy to the entirety of the fediverse aswell!
I’ll reuse this Lemmy community & the Matrix space for that event

imho the canvas was a bit too large for the userbase. Sure it's cool that everyone got a spot but I liked the thrill of the "fights" every time two projects tried to occupy the same space. But I guess the "friendly nature" of canvas kind of reflects the current state of lemmy so it's okay :)
I agree. For me it's not the fights but the artworks that take the shape they can. As in Flags in non rectangle shapes and in general works adapting to their environment.
