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

[–] grant@toast.ooo 4 points 1 year ago

yeah :(

but according to metrics we're slowly building back up

(timeframe: 12 hours ago to now)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

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

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

Everything was rebooting, it should work now 👍

Automated accounts are not supported

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

[–] grant@toast.ooo 10 points 1 year ago

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 ^

Sometimes the canvas takes a bit to load

[–] grant@toast.ooo 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

(man i hate daylight savings timezone stuff lmao)

 

Looks very cool, is there a project page to get more details about it?

 

It was really been a blast to run this event, thank you all for participating!! ♥♥♥

Thanks for joining in! The canvas is now finished!

I’m going to be leaving the canvas up and read-only for a couple days, but not too long.

This was incredibly fun to host, thank you all for participating!

Event date: August 4th (12:00am EST) - 6th (11:59pm EST)

Future Events

I’d love to make this a yearly event. Expanding from just Lemmy to the entirety of the fediverse aswell!

I’ll reuse this Lemmy community & the Matrix space for that event

If you have suggestions for future events, post them in a comment on this post, each suggestion as it’s own comment so people can vote on them

Open Canvas

We are currently sitting at 560k pixels! (more than half of the canvas!)

Let's see how far we can get!

 

This community is restricted to moderator-only posting

This community is intended to be a hub for future fediverse events

If you have an event idea, or want to just chat, hop into the Matrix Space

 

This is a very long gif (almost 2 minutes) open mp4

There's like 20 hours left for you to place your pixels

24 HOURS REMAIN

Get your pixels in!

Roughly 24 hours from now, the Canvas will be locked. Exact Time

When the event concludes I will release the pixel placement logs for all of the people who love data visualization. (This will include timestamps, usernames, coordinates and color -- no IP addresses)
