what error are you getting?

i’d love to help solve this before the event is over 😅

for anyone else coming to this post:

the best way to get in contact with staff as fast as possible is via the Matrix room or the Discord

also on Canvas, by clicking the chat button in the top right

it’s on a resource-constrained server, which gitlab doesn’t like causing it to restart every one in a while

canvas is also open source, if you want to contribute or just poke around you can find the source at https://git.sc07.company/sc07/canvas

self-hosted gitlab instance with account approvals turned on

on this post, right click -> copy image url

then on canvas open settings, paste in the url into template url and enable the template

once it’s loaded you can move it around by holding down ALT and dragging the template to where you want

after then you can just copy the website url (it should be much longer now)

this would be very cool

once the event concludes i’ll be releasing a log file with all the pixel placements for other visualizations

if whoever wants to tackle this would like, i might be able to get it as a subdomain of .fediverse.events

The logo has been nuked, thanks for reporting it!

Resize the canvas (to 1000x1000)

Keep the current size (1000x500)

the canvas is currently 60% filled

forgot to add web workers to that list, but i’m not entirely sure if it would be possible without those things

templates require webgl to do anything related to image manipulation

web workers i’ve seen also get disabled, but without those the website will freeze for quite a bit while it renders the canvas

yeah :(

but according to metrics we’re slowly building back up

(timeframe: 12 hours ago to now)

Canvas depends on WebGL, HTML5 canvases, web workers and local storage, if those are disabled it won’t load

i’ll work on adding a popup for that, kinda slipped through the cracks

and for completeness, the login page uses cookies, otherwise you won’t be able to login

(yes i’m catching up on posts lol)

I know this is like… 12 hours ago

but since then i’ve done a massive rewrite of how the canvas caches pixels and it’s much faster now :)

pixel overstacking should also be fixed

Just saw this

during the time this was posted there was a bug that allowed for pixels to be stacked up very high and also the canvas wasn’t properly syncing

if you do notice anyone else doing botting send a message about it on Matrix or Discord

took a peek at their previous pixels and the more recent ones don’t look suspicious as well

not the toast toast!

all good no worries lol

Automated accounts are not supported

Once the event ends there will be a log file that can be used in visualizations though!

make sure you put your full fediverse handle in there, hungryphrog@blahaj.zone is not the same as hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone

failed_to_find_user shows up when it cannot find your account, probably linked to my previous sentence ^

hold shift then left click on any pixel, that should bring it up :)

(man i hate daylight savings timezone stuff lmao)

there is not unfortunately, only one template can be loaded at once
