I freaking LOVE Pixelfed!

@dansup @pixelfed

With our account, we aim for the people of the fediverse to understand that they are a solution to fix the #climate

Please keep working to make this tool as green as possible so that we can be the change.

😍

@dansup Yo as someone who joined fediverse a few days ago, can you give me some very general tips on how it works?

Don't worry, I know it isn't just Mastodon. I'm not that clueless 😂.

Also a little bit about pixelfed too if you don't mind. Just what's special about it compared to other instances

Mostly replying cause I want interaction and people to meet. Absolutely love that Mastodon has a public timeline which isn't just weird and sad algorithmic curation

@pixelfed @loops @supapp 4 of 6 apps have been started and are between 20-80% complete.

The last 2 apps are being finalized, all will be open source (app + backend and web if applicable) and will be deployable along side your main Pixelfed server.

It's going to be a wild year for #pixelfed

😎

@dansup great work I’ve been loving PixelFed iOS for a few years now. Looking forward to Loops TestFlight

@dansup @loops will there be a way for a small instance to have a populated timeline on Loops? I host my own servers, though haven't got to Pixelfed yet because yunohost gave me a warning on my resource usage already. :P

@dansup @loops what does the WebUI look like tho?

@dansup @pixelfed I personally hate Stories. Can you disable them?

@dansup @pixelfed Looking great!
One question though, can you view the stories in f.ex a mastodon app? If yes, how does the story deletion feature work?

@dansup @pixelfed is that a good thing?

@dansup @pixelfed Well, erm, *cough* LDAP? ;-)

@dansup
Whats new with Sup?

@dansup @pixelfed 💪😤

@dansup Why don't you use F-droid, Aptoide or Aurora, where you combine some into one.

@dansup May I ask why you want to publish Pixelfed in the PlayStore? Is it about reach; more users?

@dansup Warning you now: If your app ever prompts for a rating, It's an automatic 1-star from me.

@dansup YASSSS

@dansup
also on f-droid? :)

Please tell me you're talking about an app.

@dansup That's ok. I don't think many people need Loops in their browsers or on PC. However if you would make an app for PC I personally would be pleased with my windows tablet, but I don't feel like this PC App will find any popularity so it's very much effort without much reason

@dansup Reminds me of Instagram early days, they were exclusive to phones 👌

@dansup Why does web require that much more bandwidth than Android/iOS? Bots?

@dansup @loops Interesting.
i’m definitely planning on running my own instance (would even beta test if that’s an option), but I get the idea

@dansup @loops what is loops?

@dansup @loops What a fantastic idea! Best of both worlds!

@dansup @loops

Why not:
xxxxxx.tld/@yourUsername/lm6_hqMDAA
for the video, like a toot URL on Mastodon? Just curious. 🙂

@dansup @loops
You might want to edit your post. The Frenchman who has the @ loops address on Mastodon is probably really confused about this conversation. 😮

@dansup @loops wouldn't placing the /v/ part after the /@userName/ part make more sense? I think URLs should work like directories, so /User/Videos/VideoId, because the videos belong to the user

@dansup @loops

release early, release often 😉

@dansup @loops From an iPhone user - just get the Android version out and hopefully the iOS version will be ready soon. Would have loved to test Loops for iOS during Easter 🐣 !

@dansup Loopies? :brxi_hype:

@dansup TestFlight dropping soon?

@dansup
That'd be sorta cool if you could swap out which loops you wanted to have uploaded at any given time. Or specify some to be a chronological feed and some swappable?

@dansup I like it. If you were to go with a limit on the number of videos, it would be cool to gain more videos the older your account is. That way spam accounts can max post one video and older accounts are rewarded with more video slots.

If you do this though, I would want an option to automatically post the videos to a peertube account. I put a lot of effort into most of my videos so I wouldn't want them to disappear forever.

@dansup tbh I don't really like this idea. I feel like it would make adoption harder, as well as cause link rot/archival problems.

> sharing the private keys for every local user

This sounds weird. Did you mean public keys?

@dansup I would prefer you didn't share keys. Http sigs should function as a remote authentication method. Sharing the keys makes it impossible to know that a message is from who it claims to be. That would mean enforcing blocks would require blocking everyone who shares that key.
