Hey all,

I’ve got an exciting thing to announce today, Canvas — Lemmy’s r/Place!

We need to get our own traditions over here in the Threadiverse, why not start off with our own r/Place

This weekend, we will open up a canvas to all Lemmy users, each user will be able to place 1 pixel every minute. This event will last 72 hours, starting midnight EST on the 4th and ending at 11:59pm EST on the 6th

One pixel every 5 minutes? That sounds extremely tedious.

With so many people participating, it was beautiful

It is, but it's the type of thing you pop in every now and then and place a pixel, and look at all the updated art that has occurred in the meantime. Everyone's using the same canvas.

That’s why you have a bot that coordinates with a group of users do it for you, if you want to make something intelligible

It is limited, yes, the pixel you place is one amongst many - you are just one part of the much larger project. That's the fun part
