@dansup getting a whole full sized car is awesome, and getting a RC helicopter too is just icing on the cake.

I'm hoping for an RC car and helicopter next year

@dansup

This fairly frequently updated Google Docs Spreadsheet by @cassolotl was my previous best option (which is still REALLY awesome).

Thank you for this feature, Pixelfed & Dansup! :blobcathuggies:

Hmm. I feel like @pixelfed's decision to track exactly 137 of the most followed Fediverse :fediverse: accounts on their newest FediDB page and not one more wasn't due to any IT limitations ;) :pixelfed:

@dansup Wonderful!

I have a simpler solution for this problem: I just don't participate in the gift system 😅

@dansup 🙌

@dansup thanks for this great work. Have a merry Christmas!

@dansup how many users am I? I've got an account on mastodon, pixelfed, lemmy and peertube.

Am I 4 users?

@dansup wooooooooooo beautiful

@dansup looking slick

@dansup Ah Xcode, how you haven't changed :blobcatgooglywtf:​

Xcode updates, now with more annoyance, because the iOS SDK is no longer included and has to be downloaded separately, taking ages

@dansup Not sure if doable but I would be interested in a list of currently popular hashtags that's representative for the whole fediverse and not just my own instance.

@dansup I would love to see an event tracking instances that operate on Tor! 🧅

@dansup

@dansup @vantablack Thanks - just what I've been looking for. Now I just have to find a new instance and transfer.

Which will give me something to do over Christmas. Maybe avoid some washing up or something.😆

@dansup you are a boss. Thank you.

@dansup That seems like a great solution! 😮

I personally don't want it blocked, obviously not because I like or trust meta (although I do think the e.e.e fears aren't realistic, the fediverse is well established and no matter how much they extend, few here will switch to meta if they cut the federation later), but because it might be a way to talk with some acquittances that only use their platform (which is literally everyone I have contact irl, nobody I know is in the fediverse).

@dansup A very good Decision to block treads.net by default, in my humble Opinion at least. 👍 😉
#Threads #Blocking #Pixelfed #BlockMeta #BlockThreadsNet

@dansup I know there’s a lot of feedback coming to you over the decision.

In trying to a strike balance between those that want to interact with Threads vs not, I think this is the most reasoned approach I’ve seen so far..

@dansup I have no dog in this federation fight, but my thought is: the nomenclature on this feels awkward. Purely as UX. Just as a normal user, if I wanted to follow a Threads user, I'm not sure my initial thought would be to unblock. That's the inverse of following, which sounds counterintuitive.

I mean I would know what to do here, but I also host my own servers. Would John Q. Public know how to follow his buddy on another service? 🤷‍♂️ Maybe the question doesn't matter.

@dansup would still like to join pixelfed.art

@dansup Can you explain how it works ?
All new users will have Threads blocked by default, and will just have to remote it to interact with Threads ?

@dansup
I believe you arrived at the best possible solution.

Thank you for all your hard work!

@dansup I think this is a good solution -- default to blocking Threads but let individual Pixelfed users decide if they want to allow it.

@dansup this is pure gold, it shows that you are a humble and wise man that really care about this comunity and your apps users.

Thank you, for all the effort that you put into the Fediverse. We really appreciate it. Respect.

@dansup Not happy. I will unblock it for my account as soon as that feature is available. Could you please point me at the PR so I can follow it?

@dansup I don’t understand this. I see on Threads ordinary people doing ordinary things. Perhaps you’d like to explain what it is you are worried about?

@dansup Thank you! You've made the right decision for the community. Opt-in is the way it should be from the start.

@dansup can we rename that PR to clarify it's User Domain Blocks? 😅
