 My goal for PubKit and Sup is to gradually cede control to the community I want to lay a solid foundation and then move out of the way Integrity and trust are essential for such endeavours, and I promise I will not let you down, I hope you join us on this journey ❤️ GNU/Pilot - an AI code completion companion that ingests your existing projects or code to learn your style and autocomplete or automatically close PRs based on your code style Watch out M$, Gitea GNU/Pilot now exists as an idea, and I may even try build a PoC Sup, PubKit, Solo These projects are still being actively developed, and I'll have more details to share later this month For now I'm focusing on backend bug fixes / performance and submitting the iOS app to the App Store One more thing, there are dozens of WIP features like Groups that will also be rolling out in the coming weeks! It will be worth the wait 😉

 Working on a few backend bug fixes, currently fixing the avatar cache logic The issue is we store remote avatars and update them after 24 hours (which is being changed) and we never purged older avatars, leading to avatar caches ballooning to multiple GBs (containing dozens or hundreds of old avatars) The fix will be shipping soon, and will contain a command to manually purge old avatars @dansup Hi Dev, is there any problems with the servers? When accessing https://pixelfed.social, it is showing " Access Denied " 😰 Don't know if it is only for me😥 Country : India   You’re awesome, Dan. Thank you for all the amazing work you’re doing. Can I ask about the status of PubKit?(hopefully without sounding ungrateful) Clear, usable test cases are so hard to find, I’ve actually paused my work in ActivityPub until your code drops.

shoutout to all the elder millennials that post song lyrics as emotional status updates "you are not alone" - https://www.whosampled.com/sample/424638/Burial-Come-Down-to-Us-Michael-Jackson-You-Are-Not-Alone/   @dansup I'm glad the Internet didn't have the memory it does now back then. The worst part is, due to my obsessive data hoarding and keeping going of all my old computers, I have them backed up 🤣  "Love when they argue the hardest DEV Adding in-app registrations to the @pixelfed app is challenging, and not for technical reasons The decentralized nature means anyone can start an instance, but what happens when the admin decides they want to shut it down, or shut it down without notice? I think the app should limit in-app sign-ups to trusted instances that won't disappear overnight A potential compromise could be invite QR codes, or app links Thoughts?

 @dansup just let people have an option to specify the domain manually. If they already know that from somewhere then they most likely have a reason to use that specific instance. It of course doesn't need to be shoved in your face and I personally would not include a full list of all known instances in the app directly but not offering signups on arbitrary instances as a feature to advanced/knowledgable users massively gimps the app and goes against the federated idea of the whole thing imo. @dansup Is there a way to specify an arbitrary instance for the usecase where someone already knows where they want to sign up? HOLY SMOKES! New Drake album just dropped, shoutout to the mandem who stayed up to hear it first 🔥 |
