I asked ChatGPT: What is Pixelfed? It wasn't wrong, still blows my mind how fast AI is progressing!

@dansup it's trained on data scraped on the web, it's not intelligent, I can find this information myself on a search engine and mayne change it up a bit to make it look like this. I'd like to think that if he were still alive, he would support the fediverse, it aligns with everything he stood for. You may be gone, but you are not forgotten ❤️ I ran into quite a few issues when I first implemented :pixelfed: Live It's quite complex when you think about it, not only are you broadcasting an audio/video feed but you also have presence (concurrent viewers), comments, reactions and broadcaster metadata that need to be realtime and scale. I look forward to shipping the new version, blog about it and nerd out on the technical details 😁 The feature is pretty cool, but I'm more excited about geeking out explaining it in a blog post 🤓 @dansup any chance it can go into the main Pixelfed app? Heard you have to have a special app for now? @dansup IIRC @atomicpoet was also working on a streaming platform with s colleague of his. Will the protocol/API be compatible? Crazy to think just a year ago I was learning react/react-native and began working on my first mobile app, Pixelfed Live! Now I'm considering rewriting the webUI in RN, would be so nice to share code between the web and mobile apps and maintain a single "frontend" UI. So proud of myself, and I'm thankful for all of you who pushed so hard for an official mobile app.

@dansup @NGIZero @pixelfed BRILLIANT would be awesome to be able to post to Instagram and pixelfed. It would encourage people to #DeleteFacebook and #DeleteInstagram but this means Pixelfed is now Supporting also normal Text Post without Images ? Approval based registration is coming to @pixelfed Similar to Mastodon, users will be able to register and be placed in a queue for admin approval before their account is made active! This should help instances deal with spam sign ups. Admins will still be able to generate and share invite links to bypass this if approval mode is enabled. Users will soon be able to share invite links too, if their admin has enabled them. Lots of exciting updates on the horizon 😁 So based on that poll regarding providing your sms number during registration, I don’t think this would be worth it. As @grishka pointed out, it gets expensive to send SMS, and others have mentioned how easy it is to get temp sms numbers. I will not be pursuing this for Pixelfed, and thanks to everyone for your feedback! #pixelfed #pixeldev It may seem odd, but I have no problem recommending @PixelDroid over the official android app I'll never forget how they shipped the first @pixelfed app and remained dedicated to it over the years! They've helped identify and fix several mastoApi issues and overall have been a pleasure to work with. So amazing to be a part of this community, and Pixelfed really owes a lot to the pioneering work of @PixelDroid ❤️

@dansup @PixelDroid @pixelfed That’s why I love pixelfed. The developer is so ethical as to appreciate the pixeldroid’s work. @dansup @PixelDroid @pixelfed is there any news on when the official app will become generally available? It's been a year since I announced and later shipped Live Streaming in @pixelfed https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/434584185352270242 It's now coming to the #pixelfedApp with a redesigned UI and easier server setup! @dansup @pixelfed again, i think it's more important to make it easier for folks to actually join. i've been waiting quite a while to join pixelfed.art but you rarely allow new users, so i can't even start building an art presence on the fediverse let alone get any of my friends to make the switch. it might be worth finding people to help you with all your projects before people jump the fediverse ship & stick with ig or w/e facebook is doing with activitypub. Fediverse admins: Would you enable SMS verification during registration to help prevent spam accounts, deleting the SMS # after verification is complete? #askFedi #fediverse #fediverseAdmins Anonymous poll

@dansup "there is nothing better in the morning" than get figure out You cut from gmail and provide security code from recovery email (bless the existence of rock solid @protonmail ) move You into unskippable phone number filling screen (obviously fresh and non existent one no phone number ever used under this account) to prove me is me sure google logic... That is one of reasons why any online accounts phone requirements (especially forced ones) its worst idea ever invented... Would you be comfortable joining an instance that required you to provide your mobile phone number to send a code you enter during registration, knowing your # wouldn't be stored and only used to verify you are not a spammer? #askFedi #fediverse Anonymous poll

@dansup this only fights spam accounts on large centralized instances. And we don't want large, centralized instances. We want to encourage many, small, federated instances. So IMO any effort to improve spam fighting, should go to tools and tech for fighting spam in a world with many, small, federated instances. @dansup it would depend a lot on how much I trust the instance owner. It’s a standard approach for mitigating bots and reasonably effective - but must every social media company that’s done this has abused the data eventually. Verification by a trusted third party might be an easier sell. Roles & Parental Controls This is my next @NGIZero milestone, and will allow admins to define roles and permissions for all users, as well as allow users to manage permissions of another account (Parental Controls)! "Trust levels" are another exciting aspect, where admins can define roles with limits that are applied based on thresholds, similar to Discourse Trust Levels https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/ This may be controversial, I made some tweaks to the @pixelfed status cards to accommodate edits. Made the avatars slightly smaller, adjusted the username font, size and color and removed the admin badge (when applicable). If you have feedback, now is the time to let me know before I ship post edits! Before + After + After (+ Edited)

@dansup It is the paradox of intolerance. Is there any more intolerant movement than wokism, all in the name of tolerance? The opposite of wokism is the same as the opposite of Trumpism: liberalism. Liberalism makes space for rational debate, openness to new ideas and different people, including views you disagree with. |

I deleted my account on pixelfed.social without reading. Any chance I can get my user back?
Other instances aren't working with the app. I can't tell if it's a bug on the app or on the server.
