24 HOURS REMAIN

Get your pixels in!

Roughly 24 hours from now, the Canvas will be locked. Exact Time

When the event concludes I will release the pixel placement logs for all of the people who love data visualization. (This will include timestamps, usernames, coordinates and color -- no IP addresses)

2 ideas for next years edition:

  • open the canvas to mastodon account in order to show the full force of the fedivers
  • show the handle of the person who put a pixel so we can contact and negociate

^^

  • announce it some weeks early so communities have time to organize
  • don't do it on August, many people on vacation.

You can do that. Just long press the pixel.

Thank you, didn't knew that ^^. So only option 1 would be interesting to add next year if PM works the same with every ActivityPub services. Mastodon, Peertube, MissKey, Funkwhale, kbin, etc... All united to create a better r/place than the original ^^

I originally wanted to do that but Lemmy’s DMs don’t federate properly, which I’ll have a different solution for next years

The GitHub issue is on the homepage for https://oidc.toast.ooo (if you have a GitHub account, click the thumbs up react on the issue to bump it!)

That authenticator might need it’s own service. It looks like it’s currently done with a lemmy bot.

Thank you for adding that text at the end to stop it becoming a Short! So dumb that we have to do that. Just let us choose, YouTube!

Thank you for this.

I'd also like to say I'd appreciate an extension

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Extension please. Three days is so short :(

lol I am loving just slowly making a Steve Buscemi face in one spot. Hopefully it will still be there when I wake up to finish.

Can we please not make it an yearly event. Having it so often would take out of the excitement

[–] neblem 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What would your preferred frequency be?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I think five years is too long, the way reddit was going to make it. Imo three years is the sweet spot, not too frequent and not too far apart. If you make it every year the canvas would be almost the same, there needs to be some time so new communities can appear and for other events to happen in the world
