oh hey the canvas also looks a bit different...

If this is your first Canvas post you've seen...

Canvas is a collaborative pixel canvas, much similar to r/place

I really like how respectful canvas is compared to place. At least so far people mainly tried to draw around other even integrated other people's work like the rainbow mortar that changed the font color on its way but didn't overwrite it.

I love how I went to bed expecting my drawing to be defaced, but instead people completed it!

[–] PrivateNoob@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

Absolutely same. It's pretty surprising.

but instead people completed it

LOL, that's wonderful.

I saw the osu! logo getting griefed tho, and the canadians destroying my attempt to draw my country flag. :((

But other than that, it's more chill than the Reddit one.

this kinda shows how the fediverse is about cooperation :)

This is beautiful. The mood seems far more chill. The only one I participated in was... Rather contentious

Thanks everyone that helped!! I'll be trying to individually PM each of you, but it's kinda hard to check each pixel so i'm probably waiting for logs. Very much appreciate it, so, so, so, soooo much.

That megumin got damn that must have taken a crap ton of coordination

Templates, baby!

Why is the right side mostly empty?

[–] Ategon@programming.dev 8 points 1 year ago

The canvas was expanded to have that area a bit before this was posted

Only problem I had, was that sometimes the canvas wouldn't load correctly and I then placed pixel on other peoples work.
