author here! I mostly assumed the reader had some context for this blog around omcb since it had gone viral and I posted it in circles already familiar, but looking back that wasn't a great decision. I'll likely revise this blog soon as there's a few other things I thought I didn't explain well. thanks for your feedback!

Is there a demo or git of the page?

Ah I thought I was gonna see the sexy Gyllenhaal in checkboxes. Is there a public page of that?

the multiplayer version is offline now and you couldn't see it without converting the underlying bytes to the 1000x1000 canvas. I do have a timelapse of the full time it was running though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8zg6cKxHFs

Not to pile on, but I wasn't expecting your "what's this" link to be a magnet link to Discord. Could be worth specifying that, or at least using a pop-out/magnet icon beside it.
