Happy Canada Day Rick Ross 😂😂😂

Andrew Woods

@dansup is that the lesser known younger brother of Bob Ross, esteemed public access painter - jealous of his brother’s fame? or is it just a happy little coincidence these 2 people share a surname? 😂

Our Apple Developer Program membership needs renewal. To continue delivering great features and improvements, we need your help!

Any donation, big or small, will make a difference. 🙌

Donate here: pixelfed.org/support-our-proje

Or via Paypal: paypal.me/dansup

Thank you for your support! 💜

Sean

@pixelfed couldn’t you massively increase your donations by releasing the app in the App Store?? It would give you a much bigger user base.

Darnell Clayton :verified:

@pixelfed The Apple Development program is still $99/year, right‽ developer.apple.com/support/co

Or did this change or is there some sort of hidden extra costs we need to be aware of‽

@pixelfed you just stopped updating the app through the play store beta channel?

Todd Thomas :ivory_logo:

@pixelfed flipping through main feed and liking some posts. Then scrolling through network feed and liking here and there. As time goes on the jumping while scrolling gets worse. Would add this to GitHub but people were complaining about not being able to upload video.

@pixelfed
Network Feed is empty - maybe because I'm using a single user instance?

Discover Tab shows nothing but my followed accounts. The old App shows a lot of random pictures instead with the same account.

Network Feed Tab of the PixelfedApp stating that no pictures are found.

Pixelfed Starter Kits will federate and be compatible with Mastodon and other platforms*

You will be able to create and manage them via our app!

I am also writing a FEP for this 😎

* - via a 3rd party intermediate app for non-Pixelfed servers

I installed it the other day, other than not being able to set the avatar, loving it. It handles the large images that mastodon doesn't like and that alone is HUGE

Just makes me want our own instance of pix.mpaq.org more 😊

@dansup is this similar to Bluesky’s ones?

Pixelfed Starter Kits are pretty amazing, and will make onboarding so much easier!

Look forward to shipping this feature in the next few days 🚀

I'll be releasing @pixelfed v0.12.2 later today with push notification support

Admins will be advised to update ASAP as that will be made the minimum supported version in the next app build.

DELETED

@dansup @pixelfed if we use the log in with Mastodon Option why do we need to give our email?

If you don't like the new parallax carousels, you can enable the Legacy Carousel setting!

After you update settings, you need to scroll to the top of the feed and refresh for them to take effect!

@pixelfed I don't seem to be able to find the app settings section (as shown) in the android app v.1.0.0.45. What am I missing?

kobra

@pixelfed for some reason the parallax made by brain think all the pictures were clickable so I had to turn it off 🙃

Michael Bishop ☕

@pixelfed unable to scroll up or down in app if not touching white space in post. Trying to tap and scroll up or down on paralax image only scrolls images right or left.

dansup

The new app includes several bug fixes and improvements, like the ability to tap bottom tabs to take you to the top of the timeline feeds!

@dansup so I'm running the app from the version I downloaded from the Play Store.

It sounds like I should actually be sideloading the app from GitHub, yeah? Or is this newest release going to be in the store?

DELETED

@dansup I'm on the beta track on Play and also on the F-Droid repo. Still haven't seen any new things come in. Again I ask, am I missing something?

dansup

I don't care what you think, the previous Pixelfed app was garbage and if I did ship that to the app stores, what do you think would happen?

Nothing.

The open source rewrite I started just a few months ago is nearly ready for release, and I'm finally proud of the state of the app.

First impressions are everything, and we will get it right 🚀

skribe 🇺🇦 :verified_mustard:

@dansup is the new version likely to work on my old phone? The current version works great. I can't find the version number.

dansup

It’s really disheartening to see comments like these.

I'm working tirelessly to ensure @pixelfed reaches its full potential, and while it may seem like an endless cycle, we’re making steady progress towards a stable release!

@pixelfed if there was a guarantee the app won't stay in beta forever, I would be more inclined to support your journey but it seems stuck in an endless improvement and rewriting state. I'm impressed by what you do but at some point you have to mark milestones and continue to move on. Cc @dansup

@dansup @pixelfed looks to me like somebody (not you) doesn't understand how beta is supposed to work.
You release, we try, we feedback, you work on what we've reported, you release. Repeat That's what you're doing here.
Now onto paying for it. We're not paying for you to get this out of beta, we're supporting the work you have and will do to keep this going after that too.

Every dollar given is someone saying: this is worth supporting.

@dansup @pixelfed Annoying and stupid people serve their purpose too. Flip the idiot off and keep being incredible.

@dansup @pixelfed TIL "forever" means "not very long, actually"

dansup

Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I do need help to renew my Apple Developer account or risk losing access and not being able to ship the app or testflight builds.

Please consider supporting us, and sharing this post ❤️

@dansup fuck apple. This sort of thing should not have a cost barrier.

Working on some accessibility features for the new @pixelfed app!

#pixelfed #accessibility

New pixelfed app accessibility screen with the following text:

Show Alt Text Button
Adds a tappable button on the bottom right corner of media to easily view alt text
Require Alt-Text in Compose
Require yourself to add alt-text to posts you compose before they can be shared
Require Alt-Text in Feeds
Hide posts without alt-text in feeds
Pixelfed app home feed with an open alt text caption that reads:

Snowy mountains melt into an alpine lake, with wildflowers in green grass in the foreground. [Fuji X-T5 / Tamron
18-300]
Skivling

@dansup @pixelfed It would be nice if, when adding alt text, the image was shown above the text field to be able to refer back to it.

Kevin Glowacz

@dansup
Do you think there might be a good way to show the alt text without hiding it behind a button and displaying in a dialog?

What if the alt text was nicely displayed inline somewhere?

@pixelfed what about automatically following tags of boosted/liked posts?

Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️

@pixelfed

I love you're working towards fixing the "New user, blank timeline" problem, but please.. pushing everyone to popularize the accounts + tags that are already popular, is not what new users or the Fedi need.

This just replicates the two caste, conformity culture of commercial networks, where a handful of extremist, clickbaity users control popular thought.

A better world is possible.

Promote by the interests of new users, regardless of size and what's already powerful.

Thanks. ❤️

To that one person who's been asking daily to bring back custom css in Pixelfed, its done!!

My use of #mastodon and #pixelfed had risen dramatically since finding apps that work (@MonaApp@mastodon.social and @pixelfed@mastodon.social, respectively).

I am not normally sitting infront of a desktop or laptop, and when I am, I’m working on something, not checking up on social media. An app makes using and posting to mastodon and pixelfed so much more seamless.

First post here on #pixelfed !

I'm going to slowly start posting my past, present and future artwork here, starting with my sculpt of Pot Boy from Elden Ring, made entirely in Blender.

A little bit about myself: I'm a 24 year old 3D artist from Austria, working mainly with ZBrush and Blender, focusing mainly on Characters and Creatures. I also have a website where I sometimes post Blogs and other artwork :)
