    I’ll probably be doing something else, but I don’t mind helping out with the Debian spiral.

    EDIT: here’s a small (40x50) template of the Debian spiral:
    The Debian spiral
    The dimensions are based on the Firefox logo in the canvas, IMO a good balance between “small enough to defend” and “large enough to be visible”. Monochrome so it’s easy to lay out.

    Depending on my creativity and time to spend I’ll probably do:

    • the cover of The Dark Side of the Moon. I started it in the Canvas '23 but didn’t have enough time to finish it; OR
    • a cow proudly shaking its back and saying “moo, I was branded!”, with the “branding” being the words “your flag here” or similar; OR
    • a smoking chimp, it’s kind of my online sig nowadays.

    I’m still willing to help maintain the Debian spiral if others are joining.

      They say Debian is stable. We just got to make sure it sticks.

      I would do a different logo but the other logos are much more complex. I figured Debian is the best logo for the job and I happen to like it.

        I actually used Debian for a long time, and while not using it nowadays, I do have some emotional attachment to it. (It was Unstable though. I stopped using it because, well… Frankendebian.)

        I don’t like Ubuntu but their logo would be easy to template for, too; and if someone wants I can pull out some simple template. Arch will be probably serviced by its own users.

        …what if we drew a Tux with a halo made out of Linux distro logos?

          Well I’m still pissed at Ubuntu over snaps so I’m out if you want to draw Ubuntu. If anything we could draw “switch to Linux Mint”

            …I’d be fine with that too. (Or perhaps even something more complex, like in the “not you” meme. It would be too complex for Canvas, I think.)

            We could simply omit Ubuntu from the halo though.

    Update: I’m placing a Debian spiral in the canvas here’s the link. Disregard the grey checkerboard.

    Anyone is welcome to help. I actually use Mint but Debian has been my distro for 90% of my time with Linux, so…
