turns out I did my math wrong, so it’s a little less than 30 days

July 12th, 2024 @ midnight EDT

https://canvas.fediverse.events

✨ this year’s event also supports the entire fediverse not just Lemmy!

(you have to be able to make/receive text posts, like mastodon, lemmy, pixelfed, etc) (peertube accounts will not work)

you can get update announcements on other fedi platforms with @canvas@fediverse.events link

chat about Canvas on Matrix or Discord (they’re bridged)

For the noobs, you should explain what this actually is. All I have is a name and a date. No deets.

Not sure if you ever worked it out but this is like r/place on reddit. There's a big board, and people can place one pixel at a time. Then you have to wait some amount of time until you can place another pixel. People work together to try to create art.

I eventually worked it out, but the point was to help others.
