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

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

completely forgot to include that in the post

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

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 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)

you’re right! totally forgot to post it there

here’s the new post there: https://toast.ooo/post/3741538

There’s no announced date yet

I’m still keeping my plan of announcing the date 30 days before Canvas starts to allow for groups to form and whatnot

Progress updates are being put in the Canvas Matrix space and Discord server if you want to keep even more up to date

I’m finishing up my college classes this month so development will speed up once those are done

(also posting this here as i mentioned it in our matrix room)

i’m not going to explicitly banning threads from contributing but i also won’t be testing with it (as i don’t plan to register on threads)

if enough people are against it i might change my plan though 👍

ah shit i did spell it wrong 😅

i’ve also posted something similar on Mastodon that also includes an explanation of what canvas is

ya know, that’s a good idea

done 👍

A1: I’m passionate about this project so I want to keep up with the community around it :) I’ve used Lemmy’s sort by new in the community + comments filter and also following the community via my Mastodon account (Lemmy community comments show up as boosts when viewed on mastodon)

A2: I don’t listen to the HI podcast, haven’t really gotten into any podcasts myself. I just noticed that there wasn’t a CGPGrey community yet, and because I like his content, wanted to make a small community around his content :)

(I don’t remember moderating a pixel art community, unless if you’re talking about Canvas, which is a yearly fediverse event :) )

If you’re interested in doing beta tests join the Matrix space or the Discord server (they will be bridged eventually)

There’s not much to put on the website atm

Currently using it as a landing page for the fediverse.events project, which currently only includes canvas

this is also pretty inventive, i’ll also keep a note of this :)

i actually really like that idea, i’ll keep note of it :)

that was a major hiccup this time around i wasn’t expecting the event to be this large and this wanted, but i do have plans to market it a bit better this year

if you use Mastodon or Matrix check out this post

canvas size: i do agree the last canvas was too big with not enough people, honestly didn’t think twice about how big i actually set it to. i might do what @CameronDev@programming.dev is suggesting, with it dynamically growing size

event time: i am not entirely sure atm, completely depends on when i think most people would be able to and my availability

announcing: i have plans to announce it a month in advance 🎉 then slowly ramping up announcements as it gets closer

other things we have a matrix chat and i’m working on getting a discord setup w/ bridging to the matrix space when i get the time to

That seemed to be a major hiccup this time around, getting the word out there

my plan for next year’s is to give 30 days and 7 day notice before the event starts

make sure you’re subscribed to !canvas@toast.ooo & in the Matrix space so you don’t miss it next year
