Someone has organised a Lemmy version of r/place at https://lemmy.nz/post/741632

The site uses your lemmy account, but doesn’t require your password. Instead it will send a message to your lemmy account to verify it’s you. I had to try a couple of times to get it working but it worked in the end.

    Here’s what I’m going for next:

    Position (332,467) (above the others)

      Seems like it got a bit crowded around our area since last night

        It sure did! I’m glad we got a good outline on the new kiwi before going to bed!

    Edit: Finished the first one, on to the second with top left at (325, 555)

    spoiler

    The Lemmy.nz logo seemed way too hard to do, so I’ve started doing this smaller version of the [email protected] logo with the bottom left corner at (379,574):

    To help, the cog button shows some settings, one of them lets you put in an overlay image. Use the following URL which is a life size image (and don’t forget to adjust the opacity): https://lemmy.nz/pictrs/image/6dca54d2-d383-4547-97d3-b740f78544a2.png

    I still have motivation I’ll probably add “[email protected]” to the right left of it. (Edit: woke up this morning and there’s no longer space on the right, so will go for the left)

    Anyone else is free to join in and help, or to do their own thing.

      Yeah I agree. I’ve seen other comments on that too. They have already changed the cooldown so you can place each pixel more often (down to 30 seconds).

      It’s nice being able to make something without having to compete for space with others, though.

    There seemed to be a NZ flag developing under the kiwis, I have startes to pick out the corners of the union jack under the blue pony.

    Please dont cover the pony, QR code or the ‘never gona give you up’

      Hmm I’m not at home to pull something together. Any suggestions? Another logo from another sub? Put a border around what we have?

      There does seem to be plenty of space above for something big.

      Odd, I’m sure I saw they had a Matrix chat set up in the Canvas matrix space

          Looks like they are doing a massive flag in the bottom left. Just may have underestimated how many people they need to fill in all those pixels…
