Canvas Stats 2025 is now live!

You can view how you rank out of 638 users, see how many pixels you places, how many of each color, and generate an image of all the pixels you placed. You can also compare how you did this year vs previous years.

I am still working on a few more graphs/images for the overall canvas.

The site layout might load weird on mobile, my goal was to get the stats up first, then I will go back and fix the design of the site.

Let me know if there are any other stats you want to see on the site!

    Important notes for the stats

    • 2024 had alts allowed which inflated the account numbers while 2025 doesnt allow them edit: nevermind was a 2023 thing
    • the time interval 2024 was in was double the size of 2025 (but site was down a bit within that but still has more than 3 days of uptime vs 2025s 2 days)

      Did the alts inflate the number THAT much? A third of the previous year seems incredibly smaller.

        Right, that doesn’t explain it. People were banned for alts last year and there were obvious alts this year.

        I looked at some of the available Lemmy stats before the event and found no active user growth across the main servers compared to before, but I still wonder what would properly explain the decrease of Canvas participants.

      I can’t remember alts being explicitly allowed. If anything, there were credible reports by people being banned for that last year.

    Great work! The stats are very cool to look at. Interesting to see this year gathered only 1/3rd the user count compared to 2024.

    This was fun and my first time participating. Just helped color some stuff in a bit.

    Thank you! These are interesting.

    For suggestions, I think it would be interesting to know how many pixels out of those I placed contributed to the final image (meaning the pixel was not overwritten at any point). Maybe you could even have another leaderboard based on that?

      I am currently working on improving the image generation. Currently it only generates a user’s pixels, but it will soon be able to generate custom images of the canvas with more options on what pixels to display. Your suggestion should be able to work.

    Thanks for the site!

    Btw I’m on mobile Safari and it loads pretty fine, not sure if other browsers have issues with it though.
