Omg, we literally died of laughter watching Salt Lake last night. Mary is so iconic and funny without even trying πŸ€£πŸ’€ #RHOSLC #RealHousewives

Def need to post more Stories, each one has more viewers than the last 🫣 #pixelfed #stories

wakest ⁂

@dansup how do you view view counts on mobile?

@dansup we could really use this for the Enigma 1/2 ActivityPub integration. Looking forward to it!

@dansup I want this when is the release date? September is almost over.

dansup

I get why most fediverse developers keep a low profile

I still don't see myself as one of them, I'm a self-taught gay indigenous developer

It's okay to be different.
Embrace it. Own it.

@dansup You’re talented; the rest is noise.

dansup

I really appreciate the kind words regarding my last post

While I don't usually get overwhelmed, lately I've been really feeling the pressure regarding Sup, PubKit, FediDB, Groups and the mobile app release

The pressure of friends, family and my own partner wanting more of my time, and they've been really patient, but I need to ship these ASAP.

I guess the imposter syndrome I've been feeling lately is probably related to my guilt of sacrificing my social life for Pixelfed, and questioning it

I also feel guilty about even talking about this, because these problems pale in comparison to what other people are struggling with

I don't want you to feel sympathy for me, there are plenty of more deserving people with real actual problems

That being said, I really appreciate all the support and will stop complaining, I have a lot of privilege and I get that

Radu

@dansup maybe you can find someone trustworthy enough to share some load. There probably are plenty of people that wish they could contribute

@dansup Although there's of course always room for improvement ...
And despite of all the insufficiencies of the world ...

You're good enough, Dan.
You're enough.

As much as I'd love to participate in FediForum, I still struggle with imposter syndrome

I know I'm doing stuff, but because it's mostly PHP I can't help but feel like everyone still sees @pixelfed and everything else I do as a joke

So glad to see all the interesting FediForum presentations, and hope that one day, maybe I can present too! #fediForum

@dansup @pixelfed hey it's ok there'll be more of them (and special topics sessions of the CG for testing and special sessions for export/import formats and and and...)

narF ✌️🩡

@dansup Dude! I was attending and I'm a nobody who's not even a programmer, who hasn't shipped anything. (i'm just a fediverse enthusiast person!) πŸ˜… ​You've made like 5 entire products!!! You're way too hard on yourself!

Anyway, I actually hoped to see you there. I hope you'll be there next time! πŸ˜„β€‹ There were some great conversations about moderation, which I'm sure you would have enjoyed!

bumblefudge

@dansup @pixelfed sidenote PHP is probably my native language if i'm being honest

dansup

Sorry for the pixelfed.social outage, I deployed some performance improvements that required clearing the redis cache

Everything is good now, and I’m working on even more perf improvements to reduce load and api response times in advance of our upcoming Groups feature! #groups

dansup

I have temporarily disabled some stats/graphs on fedidb.org until I have time to review and verify the methods I use to generate statistical data/graphs are accurate, as there are some questionable results being presented

The way I store FediDB data means I can regenerate stats using the original dataset without any loss of data or stats, so don't worry about that! #fediDB

dansup

Aggregate counts and per project graphs and stats remain accurate, for example fedidb.org/software/mastodon

I should have this fixed next week!

dansup

Took a few days off because I haven’t been feeling well, I’m finally feeling better!

@dansup glad to hear you’re self caring and happy to hear you’re feeling better

dansup

Can't wait to upgrade from the 13 Pro to 15 Pro, I've noticed a significant slowdown, especially when it comes to FlatLists #iPhone

Travis J. Smith

@dansup Really? The only degradation I’ve seen is to my battery, but I’m also on a 13 Mini. Other than that, it’s been smooth sailing on my end here.

Sean C.

@dansup still on the 12 Pro Max and my upgrade plans have ben stymied while i wait for my student loan refund that is being β€œprocessed" but no one can tell me what that actually means

dansup

Seeing some really cool Stories on @pixelfed, keep it up!

acb

@dansup @pixelfed What I’d like to see is Stories which are visible only to mutual follows/people the poster has chosen. That would be more important for the use case of stories, as they’re a medium for ephemeral sharing with people one knows, as opposed to publishing to anyone who finds it interesting.

dansup

Pixelfed.art and pixelfed.social have disabled WebP support for the time being.

dansup

Good Morning! Stories on Android/iOS are now shipped!

Now I’ll be focusing on:

- Pixelfed Groups
- Sup beta
- pubkit.net

@dansup
The update link in the Android up gave me a certificate error.
It worked via the website.

Mossy

@dansup very excited for Sup! Everything you've posted about it makes it sound like an incredibly cool project

@dansup Hey, thought I would give the Android app a try today and have a little bit of feedback.

1) When trying to sign in with my mastodon account, it appears that case matters for the server, which it shouldn't - I assumed it would have lowercased what I entered behind the scenes.

Mastodon.scot - is not supported.
mastodon.scot - is supported.

2) On the create password screen, letting Google Chrome suggest a password, only fills in the first password box, not the confirm password box.

@dansup @pixelfed hey congrats and thanks for years of dev work!!!

talou βšπŸ‰π“‚†

@dansup
I'd like to know if other android users can login with the app. For me, nothing pops up while selecting my server (pixelfed.social), even with the new version. And if I insist a couple of time, it crashes the system.

I had a family emergency yesterday and was unable to go through with the #Androidlust release as planned, it will be released tonight at 10pm MST

dansup

Pixelfed.social is about 100K jobs backlogged, and growing, the site is still chugging along but you may experience issues - I’m working on it

dansup

Adding 20 more job workers seems to be doing the job haha

Down to 72K now

dansup

Not to sound like a broken record, but you gotta watch out for suspicious instance growth

Spam accounts can give the impression that platforms or servers are growing faster than they are, and if not handled, can indicate a lack of proper moderation

A good rule of thumb is to use the MAU count, age of the instance, monthly post count and user count if you are in doubt

Spam is beneficial to devs but not users πŸ˜‰

@dansup though, like, switter.at doubled in size every day for a month, in uncontrollable growth.

Radu

@dansup we could come up with a formula based on number of accounts and engagement (not sure how this can be defined/calculated) and use it as a metric

Eugenia L

@dansup I wonder what is going on with pixelfed.social right now? My recent post hasn't federated at all, and I can't even delete posts (web interface)! I'm a children's/book illustrator, so I don't think I was blocked or something? I'm not sure what's going on. pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli

dansup

It's okay to be a solo developer, it's not an ego ting for me, I just seem to be able to do everything myself and like working alone

i have yet to meet someone I would trust enough to take over in the event something happens to me, so I guess we're still bus factor: 1 in this bish

that being said, I haven't met kevin systrom or mike krieger but yeah, I'd def work with them in a heartbeat. could you imagine???

dansup

It's looking like the @pixelfed app will be released around the same time as Groups, but the app won't support Groups initially.

I hope everyone agrees this is the best way forward, otherwise I can delay the app for another two months so it has Groups support, but I don't think that makes sense

πŸ„ΉπŸ„ΎπŸ„·πŸ„½ πŸ„·πŸ„°πŸ„ΌπŸ„΄πŸ„»πŸ„ΈπŸ„½πŸ„Ί

@pixelfed @dansup maybe add your intentions to integrate groups into the initial design so users know it’s coming?

ilyess

@dansup @pixelfed Definitely release the app first. Group support can wait.
