HAHAHAH sorry I joined a bit late and didn't feel like there was any space

I don't know what is more depressing... that the Greek community on Lemmy is so inactive (!greece@lemmy.world ), or that the flag was only done by one user!

I made four flags mostly by myself, idk if there was anybody from Czechia or Romania online for example

[-] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I did the Portuguese one almost on my own too, as witnessed the Finnish and Swedish flags eating two Baltic flags that were already fully drawn. The space was definitely too small for the project

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

That was the canadians fault, they ate one row of flags

[-] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 months ago

yep, the right side was difficult to defend! but I'm not mad, their flag with the country outline turned out absolutely beautiful.

[-] Iceblade02@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I'm glad it managed to survive to the end :)

[-] aggelalex@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Hey there! Thanks for helping complete the flag

the German finance minister during the debt crisis ten years ago and the person who personalized the intransigence of the north against the spending of the south

Funny how Norway is there even though it's not even in the EU

[-] 5714@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 months ago

Fucking crane foundations, T'KNOW WHAT A CRANE WEIGHS! Now I'm GETTING WILD HERE! Can't even hold a tape measure, that's why they're not in the EU!

It's a wishlist rather than a snapshot of the now

[-] Rakonat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I had to look this up.

[-] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 12 points 2 months ago

am I blind or is there no Ireland representation anywhere

[-] Foni@lemm.ee 23 points 2 months ago

Oh my God. I think the Italian flag confused me (why the hell are there so many flags that are so similar to each other??)

P.S. Cyprus and Malta are also missing, but their four inhabitants were busy that day

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

Netherlands is also missing, because the Dutch used Luxemburgs colours for some reason

[-] Successful_Try543@feddit.org 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think the flag Luxemburg is next to the flag of Belgium and the flag of the Netherlands is on the left above the one of Norway.
~~Lithuania~~ Latvia is also only represented by the dark red of the Danish flag.

[-] hyves@feddit.nl 4 points 2 months ago

Netherlands, Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Estonia got added really late

[-] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Because everyone copied frances flag so it led to similar ones.

!canvas@toast.ooo for the context

If you want to see the final canvas: https://canvas.fediverse.events/

[-] verstra@programming.dev 6 points 2 months ago

There are two slovenias, top left. Which is better?

[-] Foni@lemm.ee 16 points 2 months ago

I think they are Slovenia and Slovakia, the shade of blue and the shield changes a little, but it is basically the same flag

[-] Ad5001@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yeah, it's still missing a few flags (Ireland, Greece, Lithuania, Letony...). There wasn't much space left around to do them without overriding someone else's art, and too little time to do it (thank you to everyone who went well into the night to make the estonian one <3)

At least Norway didn't end up completly cursed haha.

[-] Foni@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

Isn't Lithuania the one glued to Spain on the left?

[-] Ad5001@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Whoops! You're absolutely right, I missed it.

[-] rambling_lunatic@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Is there a Fediverse "Place"?

finished for this year, follow the community so you don't miss next year

[-] CommunityLinkFixer@lemmings.world 2 points 1 month ago

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !canvas@toast.ooo

[-] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Nice to see hungary there... twice? But it is insulting to see denmark eating sweden.

[-] hitwright@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I do miss Latvia :(
