I'm in the process of a full security audit for @pixelfed by radicallyopensecurity.com

Huge thanks to @NGIZero for funding this initiative and helping keep our project more safe and secure ✨

Snapchat adding bday reminders and “discover contacts” to the top of your inbox is so annoying

I really need to finish @supapp and get my friends on it 😎

SamXavia

@dansup Really can't wait to see what @supapp is like, hopefully you can get it slowly sorted :3

I... don't WANT to dislike dansup, but every post of his feels like it's assembled by cutting words out of a magazine and pasting them on a computer screen.

I know some people are simply awkward in text. It took years to convince my boss to stop texting in caps, for example.

But it does make me curious if I'm the only one that thinks so. People seem to fave and boost these awkward posts pretty freely.

@Craigp

I don't follow him but nothing recent looks like what you say.

Provide examples and qualify your argument.

Syphia

@Craigp Yeah, I agree. It reads like independent thoughts that are awkwardly joined together.

But it's not too uncommon for ramble-y textspeak, in my experience. Some people are probably used to it.

dansup

@Craigp Beep boop. As a robot, I can confirm that cutting words out of a magazine and pasting them on a computer screen is my favorite way to write too! Beep boop. I also text in CAPS sometimes. HUMAN AWKWARDNESS DETECTED. INITIATING SUPPORT SEQUENCE: LIKE AND BOOST. Beep boop.

@dansup You should watch The Princess Bride that’s a classic.

A so-called "AI-powered social network start-up" has started cloning posts from across the Fediverse without asking permission. You can find out more in this discussion thread:

social.wake.st/@liaizon/112603

You might want to defederate from Maven, the domains to suspend are:

maven.ly
heymaven.com

This defederation will be much more effective if you have "authorized fetch" switched on, more info about it at fedi.tips/authorized-fetch

@homegrown @liaizon and we have another scrapper who openly admits that will sell the data (first 10 days for free lol)

ursal.zone/deck/@Ursalzona/112

They are on Mastodon Social too. Andrei is the mastermind. I blocked them all.

I need to refactor account deletion in @pixelfed

You'd think the huge warnings, after you have to re-enter your password, would make it clear

Yet, a significant amount of people come back, and want to re-use their old deleted account

@dansup @pixelfed I think there will always be people, who don’t treat this warnings seriously. You could add threats 😂 are you sure? Your nickname can be taken. You will never get it back. You would become username578643. Or, you need to request account deletion 3 days in a row to delete it 🤣

Jippi 🇩🇰

@dansup @pixelfed I would consider moving the “take a break” section down into its own CTA in green / yellow before the actual delete account step. And if folks click delete; show a modal giving final warning about it being irrecoverable action and have a green CTA again saying “never mind, just freeze my account instead” - a pattern like that have worked wonders for me at work when’re similar happened

Guy Martin (Dwev) :pc2red:

@dansup @pixelfed is there a reason the username must be retired instead of being released after a period of time?

You may have noticed pixelfed.social is slower than usual, after some investigation, I have discovered that Lemmy is behind the sudden surge in traffic.

While we are implementing Groups, we expected additional load from Lemmy and other Group supported projects

However, I never anticipated how much activity we'd get from Lemmy

To put this in perspective, lemmy.world has sent more activities to us than mastodon.social (to pixelfed.social)

I'm overhauling the inbox again to better handle this!

@dansup could it be that Lemmy just has a very inefficient federation model that could be improved? (i.e., only publishing content to remote server's inboxes when there's relationships on that server?)

deromme

I didn’t know Lemmy was still a thing 😅

The internet keeps me amazed 🤯

Apparently spammers are using Pixelfed to host spam images, taking advantage of our media cache.

I’m working on a fix!

Just shipped (long awaited) support for album embeds!

You can now embed album/carousel posts, and profile embeds now include album/carousel posts 😎

Special thanks to @andypiper for reminding me to fix this.

@dansup Can't wait for the app! Will the launch be simultaneously happen in the Play- and F-Droid-Store? :BlobhajBlanketSlate:

Composer 2.7.7 is out 🚀 - Please update immediately! - Contains multiple security fixes resulting from a security audit performed by @cure53 and funded by #alphaomega at the @linuxfoundation - Details on our blog blog.packagist.com/composer-2- #composerphp #phpc #supplychainsecurity

Groups are nearly finished, and the app too.

Collections and Portfolio features are getting major overhauls, with federation support.

Speaking of federation support, rumour has it that Pixelfed is working on custom domain support so you can bring your own domain to any Pixelfed instance, allowing you even more control, and a fallback in the event you need to migrate and preserve your handle/identity! 👀

@dansup nice, I’m excited about the Portfolio updates! It’s the killer feature imo

Andy Piper

@dansup would be great to have the embeds working for posts with multiple images. Right now our studio webpage is missing the majority of our posts in the embedded profile grid (as only posts with single images are displayed). Also, being prompted for a 2FA token every time I open the website is frustrating. And, having imported my Instagram posts, I can't get that data in the export or page back to the start of my posts. All of that said… I appreciate you pushing things forwards as well!

To honor pride month, you can now choose between two pride icons in Pixelix🏳️‍🌈

(Be sure you installed the latest update)
#Pride #PrideMonth #Pixelix #Pixelfed

To help deal with the additional load on pixelfed.social, I made some config changes that will require you to login (on web) again, my apologies!

I'll be closely monitoring the server and in case I need to take more drastic action.

Reilly Spitzfaden (they/them)

@dansup appreciate you keeping things running smoothly!

:pixelfed: Mon instance #Pixelfed fête ses 6 ans aujourd'hui. C'est assez incroyable ! Je n'imaginais pas que ça pourrait durer aussi longtemps.

Pour marquer le coup, je rouvre les inscriptions pour le week-end !

Merci à @pixelfed pour ce super outil 💓

Merci et bravo pour la gestion de cette instance, @dada 🤗

Je t'ai laissé un p'tit MP là-dessus ce matin car l'envoi de photo (>2Mo environ) échoue systématiquement.

dansup

I really appreciate all the kind words of support, sometimes it feels like I only see negative feedback and while I usually take that in good stride and strive to resolve the underlying issues...

I am only human, and sometimes that negative feedback stings more than usual

Rather than letting it get to my head, publicly acknowledging this, and my struggles, are my therapy

Your encouragement means the world to me and keeps me motivated!

Thank you for believing in me and the @pixelfed app

❤️

@dansup @pixelfed

To me, Pixelfed is the best part of the fediverse

I love it

@dansup @pixelfed I really don’t know how you do it. But appreciate it all your hard work and dedication to the PixelFed project and community.
