One of my favorite YouTube videos from 2009 about the internet, technology and media, predicted that smart phones would be the primary device in 2020.

Should I post the full video?

@dansup this is certainly true in developing countries, mobiles being the primary device people use to get online.

@dansup it happened sooner than 2020 too!

Working on Curated Onboarding Templates so @pixelfed admins can define reusable responses to more efficiently curate applications!

I also refactored this to better filter applications that require admin action by default.

PS: I ❤️ Curated Onboarding, it's more than proved itself on pixelfed.social

@dansup @pixelfed "first seen" truly inspiring words right there

@dansup @pixelfed notifications man. That’s the main feature that I would love to have

Goldmaster

@dansup @pixelfed nice! Also need scheduling of posts. Dam useful for social media managers.

There are a dozen or so microservices that power various aspects of the @pixelfed ecosystem.

For example, our mobile app uses Beagle for the Discover tab, and Recovery to help users remember what instance they joined.

It really do be just one guy from Canada (me), so your support for Pixelfed is greatly appreciated!

After using @pixelfed Curated Onboarding for a few days, I have a list of ideas to implement:

- Mass actions (select multiple/all)
- Templates (save common requests for 1-click requests for more info)
- Mobile app support
- Autospam support (quarantine suspected spam posts)
- Autofollow invites (users share special links, and their friends follow and join, and once approved, we follow their friend account)

Share and give feedback please!

@dansup @pixelfed I would like to see an option to limit currated onboarding to a custom list of mail domains that are known as spammer, like gmail.com

Darnell Clayton :verified:

@dansup @pixelfed Hmmmm…how about the ability to list multiple sites in our #Pixelfed profile‽ 😅

It’s not a huge deal, but #Mastodon can list four, #Instagram can list 5 (they do not count #Threads which they highlight separately) & #Misskey a zillion! 😂🤣

Pixelfed doesn't support push or email notifications yet, and I know that has a huge impact on growth and retention

I am finally *actually* working on this, together with the app store submissions

It's about time for @pixelfed to shine ✨

@dansup @pixelfed just started my instance the day before yesterday. It was a bit tricky to setup because the docs are lacking. Horizon would not start for example because ubuntu has deactivated pcntl modules in the php.ini by default. Found the solution for this (remove everthing behind = in the line disabled_functions)

Next thing would be the env file. Some things are missing like email notification for autospam in the docs. An explanation what are some env are for would be great too

It is a great piece of software and I am impressed, but it is not easy to setup for beginners.

Nonetheless thanks for making Pixelfed, it was totally worth a donation :neofox_heart:

My early investments in spam prevention for @pixelfed are still paying dividends!

Autospam has proven to be very useful in detecting and helping mitigate spam, as well as several design decisions we've made like hiding DMs from accounts you don't follow by default.

The recent spam wave had limited impact on Pixelfed, and we look forward to pushing the boundary further!

Edit: Shipped!! pixelfed.org/servers

✨ A simpler, better server directory for @pixelfed

(with Curated Onboarding support!)

Shipping soon! 🚀

That's good looking !
Be aware, french is represented twice in the drop down menu. (Surely because upper/lower case.)

In case you were wondering, @pixelfed Autospam is quite efficient!

Less than 3 MB of disk used after 9 months of running on pixelfed.social!

Guess who just discovered a new Autospam training source??

Curated Onboarding requires applicants to include a "reason for joining" and the action the admin takes can be used to further train the Autospam data!

@dansup I read third line as KDE Software instead of KDK, and I was going to ask wtf is going on xD

Tom Casavant

@dansup yeah but then you exclude those of us who genuinely want to PROVIDE THE BEST NDA TRAINING TO THE STUDENTS

@dansup @pixelfed Dan, I suggested this instance to someone yesterday, and he wrote back to say that registration was closed. Is it open again?

Ash Kaijin

@dansup @pixelfed looks like I shouldn't have been so quick to delete my account there XD

@dansup Just wondering, why all post from Misskey.design are hidden from public post on Pixelfed.art?

This instance is generally known as highly regulated general illustration community.

dansup

EDIT: Shipped!

pixelfed.blog/p/2024/feature/i

✨ Pixelfed + Curated Onboarding

Admins: All you need to do to enable this once it's shipped is to navigate to the Admin dashboard -> Settings page and toggle the "Registration Status" setting, then tap "Save"

No .env changes or cli commands required.

Shouldn't everything be this easy? Most of it is with @pixelfed 😉

Successfully tested Curated Onboarding on my staging instance, we're moments away from it being merged into @pixelfed!

@dansup @pixelfed as you are allowing plus-addressing in the email, maybe a "there are X other accounts with the same plus prefix" and "there are X other accounts on the same mail domain, of which Y are disabled, Z are blocked, N have spam reported" as a good indicator (maybe a "domain trust score?)

And as a bonus note that gmail is super special; the local part (left hand of @) one can insert dots anywhere: eg d.a.niel.super.nault@ is the same address.. fun for antispam scoring...

omg, my bestie from back in the hyperboria days is considering writing his own fediverse server

He is well known for his iconic troll campaign "Rewrite It In Rust"

Like or boost if you think @ansuz should write his own fediverse server ✨

Also, in case you forgot, I wrote a tool that you can use to convert Mastodon blocklists to Pixelfed format and vice versa!

It's a simple html page, so you can clone it and run locally if you desire!

I'm also working on a radical approach to federation, @pixelfed admins will soon have a game changing approach to manage federation.

Imagine being able to filter federated activities from outdated instances that have open registration enabled, with a single tap.

Forget importing blocklists, we're making it more simple and easier to manage federation.

Pixelfed makes moderation easy ✨

David Fleetwood - RG Admin

@dansup @pixelfed This is important and should become a standard across fedi. We shoujld be able to set policies that prevent potentially compromised instances from communicating with ours until updated to a safe version.

This also solves the problem of absent admins, their instance will fade to irrelevance if they ignore it too long.
