I was very very very bored.
I stumbled a nice alternate solution that I think is worth sharing.
It probably isn't very interesting, but here's the alternate solution.
1100000000
1000000010
0000101000
0000010100
0101101000
0010110100
0001010000
0010100000
0000010001
0000000011
What do you all think? Has anyone else found something like this?
I quickly placed the 2s by assuming rotational symmetry.#3: Claudia (clau_bolson) on Apr 20, 2022 [SPOILER]
That left 2 options: Make an X (which I did first, and was proven to be not the intended solution), so I erased the X and made a diamond, which was accepted.
The whole exercise took only a minute or two.
There are many more alternate solutions, here is another one#4: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Apr 20, 2022

Found to require lots of guessing by gator.#5: Gator (gator) on Apr 20, 2022 [SPOILER]
I'm not going to count them up, but there are likely 10s or 100s (maybe thousands) of solutions to this.#6: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Apr 26, 2022 [SPOILER]
I like this one: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/813557991235518514/968412011937554442/20220426_031914.jpg#7: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Apr 26, 2022
There are 1296 solutions if all the 2s are all placed correctly -- but they don't have to be.#8: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Apr 26, 2022 [SPOILER]
So, more. Probably many more.
Because this doesn't have a unique solution, there is no need for a solution to be symmetrical. Like so:
