What is it?

You can sign in with almost any Fediverse account (ex. your lemmy account, mastodon account, etc.). Afterwards, you will be able to place a pixel every 30 seconds or so. By working together, people make (and break) different designs.

You shouldn't need to give away your login information to authenticate. For me, the system asked for my instance and username, then sent me a message with the verification code.

What should we do?

I don't think we have any templates yet, so you're open to suggest a Canada wide design, or smaller specific ones. In the meantime, just have fun :)

Might want to find a good pixel maple leaf to base the flag dimensions off of. I couldn’t find one centered on a pixel, but it’s a start:
