 @dansup  @dansup How can I change a picture with status "unlisted" to be "public"!? Thanks for your help! Account switching is a tricky feature to implement properly because it involves a carefully orchestrated procedure that involves rotating cached auth data, invalidating the api query cache and then storing new auth data and applying the per-account settings. There are a ton of things to watch out for, like expired auth tokens, and the refresh logic, deleted accounts, and 2FA. Not to mention Push Notifications, its possible you'll get notifications from other accounts and we have to handle that @dansup yeah, multi-tenancy can be a pain to retrofit. If you know ahead of time, that you want it, you can scope the data stores to individual users. Hello Collections ✨ You will soon be able to pin collections to your profile and better manage them on the official app! Hello Collections ✨ You will soon be able to pin collections to your profile and better manage them on the official app! PUB (Pixelfed Unified Broadcast) PUBd (PUB discovery) An experimental new supplemental protocol for Pixelfed to Pixelfed communications (and others later) for non-standard interactions. I'm drafting a FEP and the docs, along with the first implementation which will be used in an upcoming + unannounced app feature!  Speaking of funny acronyms, I thought about calling my approach to page rendering and partial updates Unified Server-Side Rendering, or USSR I've had people in my mentions dramatically profess their disdain for my "tragic mismanagement" of pixelfed for the lack of dark mode in the *BETA* app and say they deleting their account turn the brightness down and relax, it's coming 😂

  ✨ Resilient Media Storage You can now add two fallback S3 providers that will be used in the event your primary S3 provider is down or unavailable! Thanks to @NGIZero for funding this feature ❤️ 🚧 Behind the Pixels Curious about how we keep your media safe & organized on Pixelfed? It's all thanks to a clever combo of profile IDs & random hashes – think of it like a secret code for your pics & vids! This not only protects your stuff but also makes it super easy to manage. For Stories, we even rotate media urls periodically!

@dansup safety should come from access control rather than randomness. Unpredictability isn’t access control because like unlisted YouTube videos, once you know the random URL, you would be able to view it. The topic of file safety is incomplete without mentioning access control  @dansup https://uuid7.com/ includes the year/month so you could just drop that whole folder.  I wasn't able to attend the E2EE meeting due to work, however I do look forward to working with other projects on encrypted messaging ✨ Sup will be available via TestFlight beta after our review is approved!
#sup #helloWorld #fediverseMessenger The official mastodon app could use a “Read more” feature to prevent having to scroll through really long posts

That's a great idea. Till then, it would be polite if people writing super long posts would use the content warning / content info feature...  "Your project Loops has been selected for the second round" Seems like https://loops.video is still in the running for a potential NLnet grant ✨ Super exciting and perfect timing, almost done wrapping up Pixelfed Groups and the mobile app! npm i pubkit (write + run federation tests on your code using up-to-date activities from popular software collated from https://pubkit.net)   |
