Yeah, I go through and hide things every once in awhile by looking though communities in the database with some queries
BBC is hidden since i just went though and hid them. Sub and youll see all the posts. Hackaday isnt fetching posts looks like (did anyone sub previously?)
The last one should be scientificamerican instead of scientificamerica and seems to be functioning but hidden so sub and youll see the posts
Federation seems to be working, just that one specific community broke for some reason
All these communities fall under the realm of things I hide from the main feeds though since its majority bot content so at some point youll have to subscribe to see the posts
Should be posting these daily for awhile
There was one open a bit ago but its now closed. tldr the swap to Bun from node broke things on some operating systems
The bot works on an opt in system, mods have to approve it for communities otherwise id be violating the lemmy.world bot guidelines
I remember there was some equivalent action but dont know for sure what it was since I didnt use mobile
Oh huh I didnt even realize you could pan like that, guess one of those has to be removed and moved to something else unless its detected between hold and tap
scrolling the scroll wheel scrolls the map and clicking down on the wheel over a pixel color picks
The only thing that was removed after the canvas freeze was the map flag
You could middle click to color pick in the event
To get it actually running you need to do more than set up just the env but ive got what I needed to do here

If you want to allow logging in so you can test the features that get unlocked from that heres some code changes to get it working so you can bypass setting up openid

Client will be up at localhost:5173
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This was originally made as a userscript by soda_cans and was adapted by me into the actual codebase
Enjoy :)
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
The fediverse canvas event is starting in a couple hours (event similar to r/place) and similar to last year I figured we can place the godot logo on it!
Canvas is an event where everyone can place a pixel every so often on a shared canvas. This can overwrite previously placed pixels which can lead to communities fighting for space on the canvas
You can find the link to it here: https://canvas.fediverse.events
I set up a template beside the main programming.dev area that you can find from the below links. This can be edited if theres another godot design people like more but figured it was a good start. For real time chatting im active on the programming.dev discord and matrix
one to one template: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=423&y=472&zoom=5&tu=https%3A%2F%2Fbytes.programming.dev%2Ffiles%2F4ce62a78-1476-4842-a2df-fcb84049a52a&tw=44&tx=386&ty=429&ts=ONE_TO_ONE
I collected together all of the templates I could find for different groups (originally did this to see where I can expand the programming.dev template out to but figured other people might be interested so they can see where there wont be as much conflict for space
Most of these are from the group finder thread. Some may be a pixel off but I tried to get things as close as possible (some of these are recreated since I couldnt get the source image from imgur or the source image is larger and was shrunk for the canvas with me not being able to replicate the shrink behaviour)
The factions included in here are:
Ill try to do an updated post if needed with additional factions that post their templates close to when the event starts
And if theres anyone who wants to join up with the programming.dev template if youre tech related or if you want to ally feel free to reach out (you can find our groups in the group finder thread)
edit: moved SquaredCircle since they moved to not overlap with Osu
edit 2: added Lilou41's template
edit 3: updated osu and bronies to be more recent art
edit 4: added Lvxferre's template
edit 5: added touhou hijack
edit 6: added jlai lu
edit 7: added scp
edit 8: added godot and ategondev
edit 9: added anarchy chess, perchance, and feddit
edit 10: added another aus template
edit 11: fixed aus size
edit 12: moved triangle position
edit 13: added dolls now and paf
edit 14: updated toast art
If a community is shown with proper data its working and probably hidden (the one thats broken, nytimes, doesnt have correct data since its missing the stats and mod list)
But yeah lemmy has terrible UX for hidden communities atm
