Was this one shorter than last years? Seems like things didn't change much once things were initially sketched out.

I didn't even know there was a canvas going on
My takeaway is that furries are far more organised than everyone else.
Not just furries... all the ponies too
What’s the difference?
Is it possible to get an uncompressed or far less compressed version?
Poor aussie.zone didn't stand a chance to get their flag in
Edit: Oh except for the tiny one I see there!
I remember them mentioning some technical problem, right at the start. I kind of used the opportunity to write the "fuck flags // fuck nations // we're in a single Earth" text, right where they'd make the union jack. Then I saw people actually making a background for it and thought "yeah, no huge Australian flag this time".
I like the sentiment, but thought it was kinda funny that there were so many flags everywhere else.
While there were flags everywhere, I felt like there were a lot fewer than these things usually have, at least.
If I didn't suck so bad at recruiting people for my anti-flags faction, perhaps we would see less of them.
I managed to overwrite half of the long German flag near the bottom, plus the original/lower South African flag, the Czech flag, and the Polish flag. I also did like a third of the background to your message and changed the "in" to "on". I didn't join the Matrix/Discord but your message is what motivated me to do all that, so maybe you're better at recruiting than you think 😉
I'm glad I managed to do some change! ...beyond, you know, pissing feddit.org off with my wiggly green line 🤣
(It'll haunt their dreams until Canvas 2026.)
Maybe you could try and rally them under some kind of banner.
A flag, if you will?
I never knew these servers had so many degenerates.
You should've seen the chat. Hestia was almost writing a lemon fanfic about other two users, it was hilarious.
Not only almost, I got the real deal too, however quickly deleted.
Ah :-/ I wish I saw it, just for the laughs!
What's a lemon fanfic?
Fanfic = fiction written by fans of a certain work (series, book, etc.) Sometimes deviating from the original story, sometimes adding stuff or fixing plot holes, sometimes pairing characters into a romantic relationship...
Lemon = smut, sexually explicit fanfic.
In this case it's being called "fanfic" metaphorically, as if both people in the chat were characters of some work.
Aaah that's the lemon, got it. Thanks.
So cool!
Thank you for setting it up again this year!
I was trying to make "LCP" above the Hololive logo. I made the P and was working on the C when I started to feel unwell and stepped away from my computer.
Wasn't able to get back to it later unfortunately, so now it just looks like a :P emoticon 😛😅
