People who can't see this thing is basically dominated by pony stuff are blind

I didn't know they were still going strong

Lemmy.Blahaj.zone

But I'm just glad I can't find any hate symbols.

[–] SgtSilverLining@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I love that he was labeled "SHONK" for most of it. Also kudos to the person/group that went around incorrectly labeling things.

[–] Stoneykins@mander.xyz 5 points 11 months ago

it was actually a sign from someone with the username "scew" that was there before the blahaj got started. for a while the people from blahaj couldn't decide between changing it or removing it, so it went through a lot of iterations, but it seems they deleted it entirely in the end.

a shame tbh, that they picked a spot someone else had already worked in, and couldn't handle it being in the middle of their stuff.

[–] GlennMagusHarvey@mander.xyz 8 points 11 months ago

Some people...tried. Fortunately, their attempts got overwritten.

How do the Germans always win

[–] just_browsing@reddthat.com 46 points 11 months ago (1 children)

A big English speaking population, it's small enough that people have a sense of national pride but still large enough to have plenty of users, and most importantly a 3 color flag that's easy to draw with no outside coordination.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 71 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Plus, they just love expanding east and west.

[–] JesusTheCarpenter@feddit.uk 11 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Shots been fired.

Btw, if this is an original comment this has to be one of the funnier if not the funniest comment I saw in Lemmy so far. Well done sir/lady!

[–] vojel@feddit.de 6 points 11 months ago

Nein nein nein

[–] scorpionix@feddit.de 29 points 11 months ago

Efficiency ... German Efficiency!

I want to remind you of this flow chart visualizing how the Germans worked on place 2022 (sorry for potato quality). Does that answer your question?

[–] ilost7489@lemmy.ca 7 points 11 months ago

It's that german engineering everyone talks about

That Nine Inch Nails logo is C.L.E.A.N.

Well done.

[–] the_dopamine_fiend@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Thanks! I had a lot of help and the template tool was crucial.

I just like that there were two separate Aphex Twin logos there.

Those Brits have a pretty big flag in the bottom left... ~i know it's supposed to be the Aussie flag~

[–] calhoon2005@aussie.zone 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We never finish anything....

[–] eagleeyedtiger@lemmy.nz 19 points 11 months ago

I think you guys were a bit too ambitious with the size..

I dunno, but I spent my morning drinking coffe and putting my name in an empty space and it’s still there. So I feel like that’s a win.

[–] coco@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Germany flag accross like reddit 🙄

[–] redw0rm@kerala.party 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

As far as they don't destroy anything, its okay. I already feel this canvas was more inclusive of smaller arts and just continued around them ( instead of overriding them )

[–] ram@lemmy.ca 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

They destroyed multiple pieces. wrt myself, they cut off all but the chest and head of Myne from Ascendance of a Bookworm, and there was an Alolan Rapidash they tried to take too. They attempted to destroy the pride banner as well, as late as 4:30PM EST yesterday.

[–] redw0rm@kerala.party 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Sorry to hear that. Since this was the first event and the moderators itself said technical issues prevented from reading and taking action in a lot of spam reports, i hope the next time would be lot better.

[–] ram@lemmy.ca 8 points 11 months ago

Ya, there definitely is some work to be done. There was one of those confederate snakes on the board for a while too - the "don't treat on me" one that modern domestic terrorist groups enjoy. It ended up getting taken down by the community, drawn over and erased underneath the pride-coloured paint roller in the top corner :)

I hope to see the next canvas be better and more active ^^

Some things never change

[–] KiofKi@feddit.de 8 points 11 months ago

It's like a digital towel

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The blue shark one stands out most to me. I'm not sure if that's a specific community, or the entire instance tho.

[–] Firefly7@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 11 months ago

That’s the lemmy.blahaj.zone instance logo

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] GlennMagusHarvey@mander.xyz 9 points 11 months ago

Yeah, they got organized very early and very fast.

[–] weebkent@ani.social 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

to be honest im just pleasantly surprised that a rag tag group of us osu peeps left over from r/place managed to build a few big things

[–] Stinkywinks@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago (2 children)

After seeing place for years, I still have no idea what OSU is

[–] weebkent@ani.social 21 points 11 months ago

~~Ohio State University~~ osu! is a rhythm game where you click circles and is played by weebs such as myself

[–] Xelnoc@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 11 months ago

You click the circles to the beat

[–] p0ppe@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Aussie.zone were super ambitious, but didn’t have the muscles to pull through.

It's always the Germans.

Fire Shark underneath Voit, that and the Nine Inch Nails logo stand out the most.

So… how do I find out what communities are on this canvas cause some of them look like ones I’d want to check out
