Canvas happens in 336 hours! (or 2 weeks, take your pick)

CountdownMatrix SpaceDiscordMastodon Announcements

At the end of the event, i’ll be selling prints of the Canvas to help fund the project 🎉 (and i’ll also be selling last year’s prints, but this year only 👀)

details for the sale have not been announced (the post will get pinned in !canvas@toast.ooo & posted on the mastodon account)

I am also planning to sell various instance’s logos as vinyl stickers, with the profits going towards those instances

If you are an instance admin and want to join in on that, send me a message on Matrix (@grant:aftermath.gg), send me an email (hello@sc07.company) or send me a message on Discord (grahhnt), whatever works best for you

(or send this post to your favorite instance that you want to get a sticker from (and support them))

Instances joining the sticker sale:

  • lemmy.world
  • mastodon.world
  • toot.community

Edit: rephrased the image

I added an .ics link to canvas.fediverse.events but it looks like that doesn't have great support :/

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, sorry

I haven’t had a lot of time to fix the bot

[–] grant@toast.ooo 6 points 1 week ago

it'll be 72 hours (12th @ midnight - 14th @ 11:49pm)

completely forgot to include that in the post

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 2 weeks ago

for some reason this post didn't get federated to toast, weird

July 12th, 2024 @ 4am UTC (the countdown is also on the website -- https://canvas.fediverse.events)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

it'll be 500x500 (from 1000x1000 last year)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 6 points 2 weeks ago

Lemmy and Mastodon have pages on their project websites for how to donate to them

individual instances also have their own donation pages, yeah

I already have plans in the work to sell Canvas prints of this year's and last year's 🙏🎉

the proceeds from the print sales (and possibly other items) will go to funding Canvas itself (and maybe other fediverse.events things)

(more details related to this will come out within the next month most likely)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 1 points 2 weeks ago

i should probably create a new thread, but i was thinking about doing that (the other games idea)

if you have ideas for any you can dm them to me via matrix or discord (grahhnt)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 11 points 2 weeks ago

you're right! totally forgot to post it there

Canvas in 30 days 👀 (canvas.fediverse.events)
 

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

@user works on all fediverse platforms, but !community does not

i was proposing for this to be a possible solution to make it work across all existing platforms w/o requiring all the other platforms to support lemmy's system

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 3 weeks ago

if using lemmy, it could automatically make this change

this would primarily be used by other fedi platforms to easily differentiate community & users

eg if i followed @sc07@group.toast.ooo on mastodon it would for sure follow !sc07@toast.ooo and not @sc07@toast.ooo (an account with the same identifier)

[–] grant@toast.ooo 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

but if you search a community up on another fedi platform, it won't always pick the community or the user (if they have the same name)

as far as the other platforms know, there's one actor but points to two different accounts

afaik the webfinger spec doesn't allow for multiple actors having the same identifier, like how lemmy does it (here's what gets returned when a username matches a community and user)

 

always wondered this, but kept forgetting to post it

eg users would be on @grant@toast.ooo and a community would be on @canvas@group.toast.ooo or something like that

then it would still follow the AP spec but still allow for identical identifiers (like a user account being @sc07@toast.ooo and a community also being [!sc07@toast.ooo](/c/sc07@toast.ooo))

basically what the title says

the ones i'm aware of:

  • google's recaptcha
  • ~~cloudflare's~~ hcaptcha

cloudflare being better for privacy compared to google, but still not great afaik

 

the bot is broken, but there's a new Cortex

not limiting it to the ones that get recommended, i just want to know the ones that i should definitely test with to ensure they work :)

 

here's my terrible canvas logo

 

Not entirely sure how that would work, but it would be a cool idea anyhow

Maybe a hook into Peertube or Owncast? although hooking into those might be out of scope for a Lemmy client idk

Edit: RPAN was Reddit's short-lived livestreaming experiment, which ended up being killed due to the cost of running a service like that.

How i envision it working within Mlem is that it would display an in-app embed (or native support) for videos hosted via PeerTube or Owncast in the feed (possibly taking up the native resolution / aspect ratio)

To improve discoverability, mlem would (theoretically) recommend communities that are tagged (probably via a #tag in the description) or something like that
