 Pixelfed Live - simple live-streaming ✨ Easy to use Shipping soon! #pixelfed #pixelfedLive 29 comments
 @pixelfed Any idea how it will look like for other fedi users for example on Mastodon? Would a live streaming post simply have a link to the stream or would there be some kind of embed? (you've probably answered this hundreds of times already. if so. i am terribly sorry)   @pixelfed@mastodon.social at first I wasn't sure if this is a feature that's really needed... but I wonder if it could be useful for artists who already upload their art to pixelfed to stream their work :nkosip:   @pixelfed Why not finish what has been started instead of starting something else which, if it is like the rest, will not be finished... Too bad there was some good stuff for a while. It's a nice project but why go so far when the base is not yet operational? Spreading yourself too thin is just more work. Good luck anyway. @kalou @pixelfed Wholeheartedly concur. #PixelFed has been in a semi-operational state for so long that it feels like an opportunity is passing. Would love to see a core feature set polished and released, easily set up and administered, and a user base grown. They may contribute as a result. Make no mistake: the vision and hard work that @dansup puts in is amazing. But it’s time for focus. I can’t wait to host my instance in a production environment. Donating to support that (vs. more features)  @jeff @kalou @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social And I look forward to shipping more core improvements, if you have specific issues or thing's you'd like to see in Pixelfed please let me know! There are a lot of things happening behind the scenes, and it may seem like we're only shipping new features because we don't often announce bug fixes * - https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/CHANGELOG.md#v0113-2022-05-09 @dansup@mastodon.social @kalou @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social please know @dansup@mastodon.social how appreciated your work is. You’re an amazing developer. The install path is a challenge. See the responses here on masto to your web install announcement for example. Following and commenting is broken for me, probably due to config probs. Now feels like the time to get to a robust baseline and get people using. I’m happy to spend time troubleshooting if helpful. @dansup@mastodon.social @kalou @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social one specific issue: follow the yunohost instructions to the letter, and you can’t follow anyone on a foreign instance of mastodon or pixelfed afterward. @dansup@mastodon.social @kalou @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social here to help if you need a repro case.  @dansup @jeff @kalou @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social My guess is that the official instance is not properly configured then. I had an account there since December 2020 and the comments on the posts never worked properly. I can see the entire discussion under the post on Mastodon, a dozen or so comments from various users, and the same post viewed on the official Pixelfed instance has only 3 random comments taken out of context. I don't comment on anything on pixelfed because I can't see any answers.  @pixelfed@mastodon.social can you disable the streaming on your instance?  @pixelfed To use an extreme colloquialism from where and when I was growing up.... Wow! That's sex on a stick! :awesome: @pixelfed This looks very cool to use! Will it deploy #WebTorrent to ease the load on a server, much like @peertube does? Implementing something like https://github.com/feross/simple-peer or https://github.com/novage/p2p-media-loader in the background would be a massive help.  @pixelfed What is the main purpose and function of Pixelfed ? Chat ? Live-Streaming ? Really?! I am sorry to say that, but there already many, open source projects out there, which do these things perfectly since many years. there is no need for an application, which does a litte bit of everything - honestly, that's a waste of development resources. |

@pixelfed What does that use in the background? Is there a decentralised way to share the load?
