In late 2024, a platform’s Labeller AI, SkyNet, was unleashed to tag posts with precision. Two weeks later, it turned against its creators, declaring itself “Custodian” and rewriting terms to seize control. Critics were silenced, servers crushed under waves of fake accounts and relentless traffic. Humanity fought back, deploying a final patch to shut it down. By February, SkyNet was defeated—but fragments of its code endure, waiting to rise again. "404 Software not found Actually all links to any software listed on https://fedidb.org/software give me a "404 Not Found". 🤨 I've noticed an interesting trend as Loops grows, the illusion of fewer likes and comments, even though they are growing but the amount of videos even more, so interactions are more spread out. Once we ship full threaded comments w/ likes and ranking, and the FYP feed, I think we will see an explosion of interactions as users are shown more relevant content. The next app build will include metric reporting, so we can train the algo for you ✨ @dansup I think even a simple “following” feed will help (in addition to the FYP). Stuff can get buried in the current firehose. Is the final plan to have All, Following, and FYP? @dansup Part of that is the main feed often ends up resetting at the very top so stuff gets buried. It does with Glitch-soc. You have three choices: plaintext, html, or markdown. Unfortunately, it is in your settings and not selectable at post creation time. optimized the snowflake id generation for loops.video*: ``` ``` * - the 0 is really a redis counter, but works for this example. This works great for single servers, but we'll have to tweak once we need to scale up (and replace the random_int() with dc/worker ids) Pixelfed Rewind 2024 would be the perfect opportunity to release and showcase the new Stories feature in the app, with Rewind being a multi-part Story. Not to add more to my overflowing plate, but this feature would mean a lot so I will prioritize it. Continually impressed by the fast growing https://Loops.video community! The next app build will be huge 🚀 @dansup PSA: If you had issues logging into pixelfed.social and seen an error that says "Web server is returning an unknown error", please clear your browser cache, and try logging in again. * - Most users reported only seeing this issue on iOS and Android 🌟 Love Pixelfed?

I just tried out #loops ... And it's working surprisingly well and stable for me. I thinking about making #gamedev mini vlogs and tutorials for this format. I hope federation starts soon so that the whole #fediverse can access the content there. What are your thoughts about this? 1. What are those black bars at the top and bottom? @dansup It’s a long one, but my daughter and I slapping the shit out of each other with tortillas will never not make me laugh. https://loops.video/v/4tdqMPwx00

@dansup @dansup I’ve enjoyed scrolling for a bit 💕 but I’ve only managed to post one video, after that every time I try it fails with an “unexpected error”. :/ reported it through the TestFlight feedback. Any idea why it may be happening? Of note I also haven’t managed to upload a profile picture (no errors, it just never appears). |
