@dansup You are really going all out to give us a great service! Thank you! 🙌

@dansup Thats a good idea separate the feeds!

@dansup hide all videos ❤️

@dansup This looks sick! Love the better use of space. I am concerned new users won't be aware there's other menus though. Is there a way to add maybe a couple pixel high bar at the top where the nav menu would be? Something to prompt the user to swipe to show other feeds/indicate which feed you're on? Just a thought...

@dansup how about having the menu when you’re at the top of the site, and make it disappear when you scroll? And still support left / right swiping? Multiple ways to access a feature isn’t a bad approach

@dansup looks pretty good, time to get rid of instagram too, after twitter and reddit

@dansup oh that is weird; earlier this year Apple awash far more responsive with app revies]ws than Google. I dare even say more transparent 😇

@dansup For most people it's a 4-day weekend, for some, 5. I'm sorry you hit a problem in the middle of it.

@dansup worst design

@dansup so in this app "public feed"="local feed" and "network feed"="global feed"? should feed names match those on the website version?

@dansup I fail to find the repository/issue tracker of the #Android #Pixelfed App to report minor findings…
Isn't it #OpenSource (yet)?

@dansup lmao

@dansup
Hey there, my #PixelFed account @axolotl@pixelfed.social was terminated without warning a while ago. How do I get it back?

https://mstdn.social/@nus/109730075705522958

@dansup okey we have 3 days to block it and pay back the blow we got in 2012 / 2015.

@dansup I'm definitely curious to see how this will turn out.

@dansup excited to see the outcome of this for the internets sake, but this is a bit much. If it needs what Instagram uses, it makes sense as you are sharing the same account, just a different medium. From a corporate perspective using instagram as your launch window is a good place to start over Facebook.

@dansup you do an awesome job on Pixelfed, Dan, no worries.

@dansup that's awesome dude! You rock

@dansup Patiently awaiting! And while I do, Vernissage is pretty good! Although I wish it had a classic tab bar instead of shoving it all in the navbar, oh well!

Apparently this may take a week to fix 😔

@dansup 😮😮😮😮😮

@dansup me, months after buying the domain, after typing 'git init', before abandoning the project for a few more months. At least.

@dansup I'm looking forward to it.
I use @pixelfed on the iPad (using testflight) and I can't wait to use it on the phone (waiting for it to get to the play store).

@dansup
Will this include stories for mobile android?
@pixelfed

@dansup Good move. One thing at a time 💪

@pixelfed

@dansup lemmy.world with just 25k ? I doubt.

@dansup I think people are really hungry for something like pixelfed. I can't wait

@dansup Broken Twitter really drives Japanese otaku to Misskey huh

@dansup tomorrow is a holiday down here and i have sene people start taking off as early as Friday last week

@dansup user experience 101: sign up the user and immediately ban them

@dansup

#InstaSPAM?

No one uses that shithole anymore.

@dansup No worries. They only got a couple teraflops of data on you for the 3 seconds you were there.

@dansup It sort of looks like they rotated and flipped the Mastodon logo 🤔

@dansup MORE…ADS…

@dansup Good options, and about just the right number of options. Any more and users might be overwhelmed. However, an option “the most popular one” might be what some (many?) users are looking for. Yes, that might not be what Fediverse advocates want to suggest, but, well, it’s about the users, isn’t it?

@dansup I'm aware of why you might not want to include "I want the biggest instance" as an option, but I think most naive users *think* that's what they want. Some clarity on what "smaller" means & a "none of the above" option may cover that, otherwise people will quit at that step. Is it also safe to assume "I am interested in a specific topic" is another page? I also would question the wording of "specific feature or limit" - what does that mean? Does it include moderation rules?

@dansup I'm not sure "picking software" is right here, but I can't quite articulate why, beyond: I don't think most people care about software really, and there's also all the forks of projects & changes over time

@dansup Accidentally left the test flight for pizelfed today 🤦🏻‍♂️ Anyway to get back in?

@dansup Gorgeous work, Daniel. Bravo!

@dansup I would rather have file size limit that resolution limits. Also I would love it if PixelFed relied on JPEG-XL as primary storage option, although I understand that this would be problematic given the limited support for the format —some way to transcode to a supported format on the fly would be necessary.

I tried AVIF in Smithereen once. It took actual time to save each image. Like, hundreds of milliseconds. Decided to stay on webp for now.

@dansup Fantastic!

@dansup have you considered looking into JPEG XL? With the Apple Ecosystem adding support this might be the way to go, also because it's the only format that doesn't limit me in my photography so far.

@dansup rock on Dan! You're doing great work!

@dansup totally right.

@dansup Ooh what happened with the schema planning?

@dansup there's different vectors in performance.

Mastodon performs well for large (and huge) communities. But it performs terrible for single person setups. E.g. #gotosocial is the reverse. It performs very well for a tiny community, but far worse for a (ten) thousand user instance.

I'm still convinced the fediverse should push for many small instances.
