While building that Mutual Following feature, I identified a re-render issue on the Profile screen, then I found quite a few re-render issues on other screens πŸ˜…

React hooks are a tricky beast, on the bright side, fixing this will improve performance

✨ Mutual Following + @pixelfed App

Mutual following are accounts you follow that also follow a specific account

Shipping soon to the #pixelfedApp

Also available for 3rd party clients, github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/p

@dansup @pixelfed Will all of the new stuff also be available on the web version? I don't use a phone. πŸ˜›

TIL of Catodon, a firefish fork.

The name sounds like a cat themed mastodon instance tbh, has someone figured out why there are so many misskey forks yet?

@dansup Misskeys codebase is feature-rich (or bloated, rather) and everyone has a different idea of how to improve it.

if people don't like the direction a fork is taking development-wise, they either fork Misskey, or that fork, and then make their own set of changes.

Neal Wilson βœ…

@dansup It's because the forks are all created by cats and of course cats are going to fork the thing that has a "user is a cat" setting.

@smallcircles @dansup probably because it's written in javascript (node.js)

On the #pixelfed backend side, I recently shipped an ActivityPub fix to report proper status, follower and following counts

I still have some work to do wrt follower sync, but this will fix the complaints regarding missing followers and counts

Backfilling is on my todo list, nobody likes to see empty remote accounts πŸ˜‰

Another #pixelfedApp improvement is adding "Follows You", "Admin" labels when appropriate, and improving bio rendering by fixing Mastodon mention links, removing new lines, adjusting link colors and font weight

This update will be pretty significant and address many concerns and feedback you've given me, should be ready to ship later today!

@dansup a cute little addition would be changing 'follows you' to 'mutuals' if you are both following each-other :neocat_flop__w:

Working on several improvements to the @pixelfed app!

Here is one example, a few small improvements go a long way to inform users that a particular hashtag has no posts, or not enough posts.

Before vs After

#pixelfed #pixelfedApp #ui #ux #design #reactNative

Nothing here yet.
Why not break the ice? Share something with the #hiddenGem hashtag and start the conversation.

With a button to take you to the Compose Post screen

@dansup @pixelfed It would be cool to feed this data into the interface while I am typing a hashtag to help me choose which of the several variations is the best one to choose. (And I realize that this might not be realistic given the wide array of hashtags out there.)

⏲️ Reminder, you can tap the 3 dots menu, then "Why you're seeing this post" if you are unsure of why a post is in your home feed!

@dansup Such a nice feature! like an anti-algorithm

@dansup for me all my posts in my home timeline just says "You navigated to this specific post".

Nathan Byrd

@dansup Nice we can really use this! @NuSkooler pubkit.net will be great for getting ActivityPub over the line for #EnigmaBBS I think.

@dansup Just wanted to check if there was an update on the PubKit Library? 🀞

What is a belay?

Belaying is a process used in solo climbing that typically uses a rope system to protect a climber in the event of a fall.

The process of belaying involves equipment unique to its function and varies based on which belay technique is being used.

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?

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 πŸ€”

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 πŸ˜‰

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 πŸ˜…

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
