The 2nd Canvas is upon us! What will you be doing? | 12th July 2024

What is this?

For all you Reddit refugees this is like r/place.
For all who don't know what that is either, this is a public, well, canvas, that will be freely accessible to anyone with a Fediverse account (specifics on the main post, don't worry, Lemmy is included).
You'll be able to place (this is not place!!!) one pixel every certain amount of time on the canvas, either in an empty or an already used spot, overwriting it in the latter case.

Where is this happening?

Right over on https://canvas.fediverse.events/

• Community: !canvas@toast.ooo

When can we participate?

On the 12th July 2024, or 2024-07-12 for all you ISO lovers!

Why should I care?

I don't know, it could be fun and it's not like you have to do it alone, it's actually way more fun to partecipate alongside your fellow fediversers, sooo... monke together strong?
If you have some particular interest and you want it represented, try to look for your people in the right communities, and organize together to make the best fricking piece of pixel art the world has ever seen!!

From here I guess we can invite you to maybe make a little something for our lemy.lol instance's community, claiming a patch of land for ourselves as the (certified) best instance of the Fediverse (full disclosure: am admin of said instance).
If we want to make something, we can probably make a Matrix room to coordinate our efforts!
Otherwise, just go ahead and have fun with your loved <insert niche game/anime/film/any piece of media> and make something out of it!

Lastly here's last year's final canvas to try to win you over (or scare you):
