i'd say pretty good, i've gotten 6 orders total (all of which being shipped out last week) ๐
i tried making a couple posts for the posters but they didn't too much traction so i assumed people weren't interested ๐
(in order of being posted)
i'll make a post in [email protected] later today most likely, just got back from a well needed vacation lol ๐ด
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:
i didn't end up getting to this before the event ended, but this should be added for next year
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)
i'm glad :) it was very fun to run after all
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
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)
โ Crossposters: link back to this post as it will be updated with more information โ
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)
I'm planning to host another one next year, so stay tuned ๐
If you have suggestions for canvas 2025 or any other events, post them in this post (thanks Ategon)
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
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 [email protected] ๐
the shop site will also include stickers for the following instances:
โจ 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!
Donating via Stripe is the best way to donate directly
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
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)
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
This will stay up as long as i can keep it running for, i'll make some improvements eventually as well
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 [email protected]
thank you to the moderators that helped me this year, even with how stressful it was ๐จ
and the contributors to the code once the event started: ๐ป
and thank you, once again, for participating this year, i hope you enjoyed it as much as i did ๐
i'm going to now go enjoy my 21st ๐ฅณ๐

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:
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 ๐ค

No size change as a result of the polls
68% of the canvas has pixels on it, lets try to get it filled!!
24h - 72h Timelapses:
go place pixels!
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
