 Phew, IG import is now fixed! This was kind of complicated to fix, basically the issue was caused by the task scheduler trying to process imports but there was no logic to handle deleted accounts, so I fixed that, but then I found another issue, people importing the same files and the cache invalidation logic wasn't suited for that, and last but not least, imported files persisted after account deletion. All fixed now, I still need to add Select All which should ship later this week! Love using @pixelfed following to spread awareness of other projects, and encourage people to consider them over my project. It's good to have choice. It's an amazing feeling to be a part of a community where competition or metrics don't matter, it's like how the internet should have always worked. For the people.

Really excited for the #activityPub developer tools I’ve been working on lately, there are a few different tools that will aid in debugging and development of your AP projects! Eventually I’d like to build a test suite using a corpus of community contributed projects to test compatibility with various projects It will be open source, and you’ll be able to download single file scripts that you can run locally to test without requiring a prod/tls stack Look forward to shipping this 😎 I know there is a need for this, and a group that is trying to organize something like this. Nothing against them, but I think I can built a foundation for this myself without bureaucracy or countless meetings, and then hand it off to them or a trusted fediverse entity. I’m all for collaboration, but sometimes it’s better to go alone and then release an MVP instead of trying to organize a project with many devs who can’t decide on what lang or code style to use. I identified a few issues in the Import from Instagram logic that prevented successful imports. The fix is almost ready, and won’t require any action from users. If you have an import stuck in Processing, it will get processed after I ship the fix in the next hour or so! Sorry for the inconvenience 😅

Oh it’s good to be back to #pixeldev! Just shipped a big fix for authorized fetch, now working on Import from IG improvements, then going to jump on some mobile app refactoring. The app is like 80% ready for release IMO, but still needs some major work when it comes to FlatList image layout shifting, comment threading and thumbnail previews. Good news is that those wont take long, and I can squeeze in push notifications & stories before the big public release!  @dansup what's the difference between pixeldev and pixelfed (according to your use of the 'words')? FediDB.org will be unlisting Lemmy instances with excessive spam accounts and few MAU effective June 28th. If the unlisted instances do not remove spam accounts and still report inflated user counts a month later, they will be banned.

 I have reconsidered this and will no longer be unlisting lemmy instances with large number of spam signups. Instead I'd like to explore a way to label potential spam instances in a way that doesn't exclude instances.  Having a blast camping, a much needed break! Luckily I can manage my @pixelfed instances easily via the mobile app 😉 Oh and this campsite has 5G coverage! Going to bring out my telescope tomorrow and grab some #astrophotography pics, I’m new at this so don’t expect much lol

Finally upgraded my 2020 Air to a 2023 MBP with double the storage!! I had to constantly delete xcode/android sdks or a copy of pixelfed.social prod database for testing, now I have room for both and more 😄 It's so much faster too, sadly I'm going camping this weekend so I won't get to use it much. As my partner says, it will still be here when I get back 😅

@dansup does that mean a discourse app will be added to your growing list of impossible to meet (for an average human) tasks? 😂 "You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things"

  @dansup How is the Pixelfed iOS app coming? Apps are the main way that people access services. Perhaps pause on new features for a while? Roze (Forgive) - Fred Again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfCmuyxnEUs #np #fediplay #fredAgain I'm still laser focused on the @pixelfed app, but I now have a lot of experience with React Native and building production Android/iOS apps. My goal is to lay the framework and basics for the Kbin app, in the open, and encourage the Kbin community to contribute and steward the direction. Ultimately, my goal is to work closely with @ernest and for him to have veto over any changes I make until it's formally handed over. Thanks a million !! I have a pixelfed account & have made one post there; I'll be more active (God willing) & really appreciate u for all that u do :)) p.s. It's not that im stuck using Insta ; I simply havent dedicated time to photo-sharing yet ^•^ Más éxito para ustedes !! 🌸 Decided I'm going to go ahead with my Kbin mobile app. Yeah I know i have a lot on the go, but I use Apollo daily, and want a solid Apollo like experience for Kbin. I'm willing to hand over the project to Kbin if they want, and would love to work closely with the developer on this if possible. Will be starting this next week, after my camping trip! It will be open source from the start, and contributors will be gladly welcomed! #kbin

@dansup Hey. I currently have some import items stuck in the queue. Should those get processed when I upgrade, or should I start a new import?
@dansup If we attempted Insta import and saw no result in the past week or so, will our import ability be reset or should we contact support as suggested in the website?
@dansup nice! I was wondering why my import failed. I even filed a support query!
