@nadavr @pixelfed
The change was made 3 days ago, assuming it is was made part of pixelfed.social. guess we'll have to wait & hear what they say.

@nadavr @pixelfed
oh btw there were also talks about making the pixelfed web app a PWA like Mastodon's if I'm not mistaken.

@pixelfed Lifelong photographer here. Sounds like a cool project!

@pixelfed I joined picelfed already. Is this a new thing, should I rejoin?

@ForwardPsych

@pixelfed Is pixelfed up and running for the general mastodon user?

spaceotter :mastodon: ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

@gih @pixelfed I'm sorry. What do you mean? Could you please elaborate? Thanks ๐Ÿ™

@ForwardPsych

@spaceotter @pixelfed Thanks for responding! I mean, can I with this account link to and use @pixelfed? If so...how? Many thanks!

spaceotter :mastodon: ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

@gih @pixelfed Oh I see what you mean. You can follow accounts hosted on any pixelfed site & the inverse is also true: pixelfed accts on any pixelfed site should be able to follow your mastodon acct (or any mastodon acct on any mastodon site). This should hold true for any social network that uses/adheres to ActivityPub protocol (mastodon, pixelfed, bookwyrm, peertube, etc). However, when it comes to creating/posting new content on any these...then you do need to be a member of one respectively.

@gih @pixelfed
2/2
tldr; Generally speaking to "read", ie follow, posts on any ActivityPub (AP) site, a single acct on any AP site suffices. To "write", ie author, a video in peertube, or images in pixelfed, you need an acct in peertube & pixelfed respectively, as examples.

*mastodon sites, pixelfed sites, peertube sites, bookwyrm sites, funkwhale sites, etc, are all sites that use AP.

@pixelfed Hi, Iโ€™m interestedโ€ฆHow do I join?

Scrapper_The_Coyote

@pixelfed I'm trying to join, but I keep getting the message "failed authenticating with that instance"

spaceotter :mastodon: ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

@pixelfed So is this another PixelFed instance? Or a PixelFed instance w/ extra features that may or may not be folded into the original? ie a fork. If so, I wouldn't mind trying and testing it out.

@pixelfed
So does this mean Pixelfed won't be hard coded to photographers any more?

@mjc3d will probably be interested in this since he's running it on Pixelfed.

@pixelfed

Will I be able to transfer all my followers and my own artsy photos from my pixelfed social account?

Teresa Arroyo

@pixelfed Oh! Me! Me! ๐Ÿ‘‹ ๐Ÿ˜€ Hi! Nice to meet you!

Hera [Ft. Dante from the Devil May Cry series]

@pixelfed May I ask how youโ€™re planning to differentiate it from the standard?

ScruffyDux

@pixelfed Yes please! I recently migrated from Deviant Art to pixelfed.social so this is even more perfect.

Will it be possible to migrate an account from another instance?

Fotis Kalafatis

@pixelfed that sounds intriguing!iโ€™ll be waiting for some update on the topic !

Commodore Sixty Bore

@pixelfed Always in to help promote your work in the fediverse.

ninakuriloff

@pixelfed I am an artist who is interested in joining the pixelfed.art beta.

james

@pixelfed yes please. I bounced off of pixelfed as it felt like Instagram (when it was good) and I wanted Artagram :D

Crowvocado

Nice! I was just thinking about creating a new Pixelfed account for art

Christian Alder :verified_paw:

@pixelfed this sounds very exciting! Iโ€™m getting back into designs / paper cutting stuff soon, will be great to share it to an art-centric location ๐Ÿ˜Š

JamesAkers

@pixelfed interested but what kind of art? Is this fan art? Manga drawing? Live laugh love style calligraphy? Painting? Sculpture? Sound art? Crafts like woodworking glass and ceramics? High conceptual? Is there a focus? Love the idea of an art based #pixelfed but would appreciate if it was easier to share pixelfed posts with mastodon and have the hashtags copy over. Also been feeling a little out of place on most #art based federated platforms due to the lack of focus.

Bloodywing

@pixelfed oh nice, if it allows art with nudity, count me in :D

James

@pixelfed Question: Is a Peruvian finger puppet travelling Europe on the train considered art? #butisitart

anggiar :dumpsterfire:

@pixelfed recently there are exodus of artist from Arstation because of Arstation unwillingness to protect their artist. @dansup

mopani (she/her)

@pixelfed I'm in for this. will it be possible to move my account from pixelfed.social to pixelfed.art?

@pixelfed can you please add model and photographer releases, include exif info, add multiple upload to multiple post capability, and allow changing access permissions to posts (and being able to do so en masse), please?

AesAthena

@pixelfed I got a pixelfed account a loooong time ago, but this would be more up my alley, I think. Even better if you have a clean art only instance!

Gerty Steinblatt

@pixelfed @Curator I'm interested in being a part of this, please count me in! :)

Cynicalico :verified_neko:

@pixelfed As long as it bans the posting of ai generated images that uses stolen artwork from real artists, I think this will be great for real artists.

Thurman

@pixelfed
I tried a pixelfed instance but I was disappointed that while you could have 5 or 6 images, you only had one note field for all images. I do woodworking and like to post build pics, each with their own notes.

The other thing is I'd like to link my mastodon account with my pixelfed account so it's easy to share pics between the two.

It's not clear what the beta will be trying to do that's different from existing pixelfed instances.

@pixelfed If you are still offering beta's for an artist Pixelfed account, please sign me up, Iโ€™m hanging for it!
