Canvas has ended! Thanks everyone who participated
(thelemmy.club)
You can see the final canvas here: https://canvas.fediverse.events/
We managed to finish our design pretty quickly and there was also the godot logo, the lattice pattern to the right, the cable leading from the monitor to the outlet up near one of the other designs, and everything else people helped with!
Ill be prepping for the next canvas close to when that happens (next year) and if anyone else wants to help out with the design you can help plan it out in the event channel on the discord/matrix
If anyone wants to help out with developing new features for the next time canvas occurs the projects open source. https://git.sc07.company/sc07/canvas Feel free to reach out to me and I can help get you set up with the codebase

New Feature: New Pixel Pulses
(thelemmy.club)
As part of an update that was just pushed you can now enable "New Pixel Pulses" which will make a little circle for a bit surrounding any new pixels that get placed onto the canvas
You can use this to see where activity is happening on the canvas
This was originally made as a userscript by soda_cans and was adapted by me into the actual codebase

Filling in backgrounds and white!
(thelemmy.club)
Currently on the canvas theres a bunch of blank space remaining. This is both due to people using the blank space as part of their design and due to some areas not having backgrounds yet!
(The green shade in the attached image is the blank canvas filter, you can find it in settings to see whats blank space and whats white)
As we head into the last part of canvas if you have any spare pixels you dont know what to do with you can drop some to help out some of the backgrounds
Some example locations:
Bi flag (around y=437)
Gray lattice (around 472, 461)
Whitespace in OSU (around 313, 265)
Void (around 709, 218)
Foliage (around 581, 493)
Yellow (around 74, 469)
Blue and Teal (around 271, 201)
White stripes in the upper flags (around 350, 46)
If you have any others post them in a comment

Image linked has a red line for where the cables currently planned to go. Any help is appreciated to give our monitor some power!
I started the cable from the outlet and its currently the gray color (third from the left) and will have some parts that need to be shadowed shadowed with the fourth color from the left in the palette
Programming.Dev
Im going to be trying to set up a tech corner similar to what Programming.Dev did last year with the dark theme zone. Any groups who want to join on around the area feel free to reach out and we can do stuff like merge templates
I mainly use linkstack https://linkstack.org/, git repo: https://github.com/LinkStackOrg/LinkStack
Theres an instance for the programming.dev instance if you want an example of how it looks https://me.programming.dev (weve got a space-like theme on it)
Its happening once a year so likely in the summer
Im working on another event that may happen next month though depending on if I finish the rest of the things to do in my queue of projects !safe_crackers@programming.dev
(so this and canvas will be 6 months apart from each other)
There is technically a roundabout way you can do it although it involves a bit of actions
I havent fully tested it so may need some variation of the actions to work but:
- Post gets created as normal in the instance
- Post get removed through the lemmy ui so that it sends a removal federation action and removes the post everywhere it was federated to
- Post get unremoved in the database by changing the removed value to false. As this is changing the value itself rather than sending an action this does not federate and only unremoves it for the instance itself
We usually hide bot communities here which would include zerobytes but my hiding system recently broke a bit due to the 0.19 update so I haven't hid any recently
I can fix that and hide the new communities that popped up
(Hiding just means they dont show on the feeds by default but show for someone if they subscribe to them)
Edit: Fixed the issues with my system and hid the main ones that appeared in the scaled feed, ill hide more as I see them
Edit #2: There is also a way to block an instance like you said by going to your user settings and then the blocks tab on web but this is one case that should be getting handled by us
Looks like a camelCase variable to me so its likely just a temporary word they replace with the actual bot name but something went wrong and it didn't replace it properly leading to the temporary text showing instead
There could be some other reasons but the actual cause cant really be determined without looking at the source code

Example view of it in lemmy explorer
This is a collecting community that gets every topic in the instance (so people can go to it and then be naturally sent into the other ones in the instance) so questions in here are fine.
The main question communities in the instance though are:
!no_stupid_questions@programming.dev
!ask_experienced_devs@programming.dev
!cs_career_questions@programming.dev
they do an allowlist rather than a blocklist (defederate with everyone by default, explicitly allow certain ones). the two were removed from their allowlist

Theres technically a code review community at !code_review@programming.dev although ive seen some people also post code reviews in the language/engine communities
