Belay (+ Solo)

The #solo project will ship with a trusty (and optional) sidekick, aptly named Belay

Belay acts as a federation relay and can be hosted on a separate server to handle the bursty and sometimes overwhelming fediverse traffic

Solo will autoconfigure and handle federation itself, Belay simply provides a more scalable and performant federation service.

Solo - the super simple single-user photo sharing software (a side project of @pixelfed)

Drag, Drop, Sync, Share

1. Download + Extract zip
2. Open browser
3. Set username/password
4. Add photos
5. Tap Sync

It really can be this easy, will you #goSolo?

Stumbled upon #Dreamcore, a liminal space horror game, I'm like obsessed with backrooms

Looking forward to playing this when I have some free time 😅

Really considering dropping Vue and going all in on React Native so we can unify web and native app clients in @pixelfed

Right now I'm faced with transitioning our vue 2 UI to vue 3 or react, and with the mobile app, now would be the time to switch teams 🤔

Luca Degasperi

@dansup @pixelfed I was faced with the same decision a while back and chose to use React for both native and web app because I enjoy React more than Vue. The libraries are higher quality as well (see react-aria) and there are interesting cross platform tools like solito.

Back in 2020 I added the #my2020 year in review feature that highlighted various stats

I'll be doing this again, but it will be much better this time 😉

I tested positive for strep throat, and finally got some antibiotics.

This is why I haven't been coding as much, I will be resuming my regular rapid release schedule in a few days 😅

This couldn't have come at a worse time, I'm preparing the app and Sup for public release and also a dozen other smaller things like FediDB YIR and PubKit before the 25th

User Growth of Top 4 Projects in 2023 (By User Count)

@dansup Lemmy gained a remarkable amount of new users during the #RedditBlackout in June. I wonder though if the huge amount of new Misskey users came from reddit as well or if I missed something.

And don't forget to mention #Pixelfed also almost reached 200k Users this year according to #FediDB 😃

@dansup It looks like this library support only the old and deprecated version of the webpush specifications (like mastodon)

The official webpush RFC is out for 7 years. And it avoids a few things like parsing the headers to add in the pushed messages (for FCM/APNS/UnifiedPush) to be able to decrypt the message, which is necessary with the draft. (cf. comment from one of the RFC author [1])

With the published version, pushed message to UnifiedPush endpoint can be decrypted by the app.

You may want to consider using the published RFC before it is too late and you have to write backward compatible transition (like mastodon has to do)

I have re-enabled the experimental CHT on pixelfed.social, you may notice posts from hashtags you follow in your home feed

Muted/blocked accounts are fixed and are now properly removed from your home feed.

Tag me if you experience any issues!

@dansup pixelfed.social's login button is busted!

I've seen apps in TestFlight for 4 years before they get publicly released

Not saying thats how long the Pixelfed app will take, I'd rather go slow and carefully build a polished experience rather than rushing out something half baked with no or little input from the community.

@dansup You want to get all your ducks in a row before submitting it for final app store approval, too. If you're unlucky enough to get a reviewer who just decides they don't want to approve it, you may end up waiting another four years!

@dansup I was in the TestFlight, and it didn't seem half baked to me. It was a much better experience than what mobile web is currently, which is all I have now that I got kicked out of the TestFlight.

Pixelfed Collections [v3]

- remove (only-public) and (only-self) constraints - allow items to be anything, even a url

- make collections followable (w/ #activityPub)

- add "Collect" button to add items to one of your collections

- public "collections directory" w/ search

The refreshed Collections feature will be quite similar to #pinterest 😉

Anca

@dansup just found collections the other day. They are awesome!!!

@dansup
Enough! Too far, man!
Could you please stop the hype? I've got to get up early and it's hard to sleep after reading your epic announcements.
Thank you. 💛

I've been pretty sick the past few days, was feeling a bit better today and managed to get a new #pixelfedApp build out that should feel A LOT faster 😎

dansup

I'm so proud of this nav menu, it really centers the new design.

The compose and search submenus are gracefully presented, I've really thought about the order and I'm confident they will remain.

@dansup looks great! Can you make it so when you click the search button it automatically puts your cursor in the search field so you can start typing without clicking on it?

🌮 Dave Millar 🌮

@dansup looks nice! Is making a collection a pretty frequent thing? My gut instinct would be to reorder the submenu to put the option for a new post in the middle to avoid having to move the mouse after the first click for the most-used option.

dansup

My goal with #metro5 is to focus on the content, and expand photography related features like exif/metadata, collections and portfolios

This is an early prototype of how posts will look, feedback and boosts much appreciated!

@dansup Very clean! I would love some settings to pick and order exif/metadata that I care about. Ideally with the possibility of fallsbacks and/or overrides (in case of missing metadata).

Steven

@dansup Loving the direction that's evolving! Better than the story-ridden Instagram of today but aiming more for quality 😍

Fanyang Meng

@dansup As a photographer myself I love this so much!

I know I just started writing this yesterday and shouldn't show such an early/unpolished prototype but check this out:

- full oauth auth/pinia state
- basic skeleton layout
- basic feeds
- basic profile layout
- modals

All using the vue3 composition API and existing backend pixelfed apis (with some slight config tweaking)

Super exciting times for @pixelfed

@dansup @pixelfed very nice! Pixelfed is taking big steps forward. I am enjoying it more and more with each new account I follow.

Roland L. Taylor (RolandiXor)

@dansup @pixelfed Sweet! I've been longing for simplified UX on Pixelfed, so glad to see this.

Stefan Bohacek

@dansup @pixelfed Not a Pixelfed user, but reading about all these changes has been really exciting!

By the way, and I know this is probably lower on your list, but are there any updates on removing the auth requirement for the /api/v1/statuses/{id} endpoint?

Yesterday I started a brand new vue3 project as the basis for the new Pixelfed webUI

Using modern SPA structure, this will make dev and customization much easier, I'm very excited about this!

Will be shipping an alpha next week to gather community feedback on the design ✨
