The network feed code in the new Pixelfed app is only 56* lines of code

Really happy with the refactor, it's much cleaner code, not to mention the app is much faster πŸš€

The new @pixelfed app is so much faster, just see for yourself

We're re-writing our app from scratch using the latest tools and best practices to provide the best photo and video sharing experience in the fediverse πŸš€

The new app will be rolling out to Android users soon ✨

Drake won, on whitney kdot done lmao

@dansup In my mind whatever drake does in this beef going forward he lost the moment he used A.I in a beef it just comes across as weak imo I’ve never been a drake fan but I’ve kept an open mind in this beef but A.I just doesn’t do it for me plus if there is one time to not use ghost writers this is it

Working on the @pixelfed app refactor and omg it’s so much faster and responsive on both Android and iOS

It even supports offline mode, and many more optimizations!

I can’t wait to ship this, it hurts to see such negative feedback wrt the current app (though I agree it sucks on Android) and I can’t wait to blow your minds with this new version 😎

PS: the new app is open source, follow along at github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed-r

Ruh roh, the hashtag police are out, hide yo hashtags!!

While Pixelfed has a max hashtag limit of 60 per post, a majority of posts contain less than half that

I checked the reported account and the hashtags they use are related, and the account has thousands of (legit) followers so who am I to play hashtag god??

If you get offended by the # or context of hashtags, maybe they aren't the problem 😬

#hashtagPolice #hideYoHashtags

@dansup hey man, sorry to tag you here, but I'd like to ask you to check out a message to hello@pixelfed.org email with the subject line β€œfailed registration”, thanks!

Omg, I fucking love Digital Ocean ❀️

Hands down the best hosting provider for devs and fedi admins

@dansup Yeah! Using a droplet as a reverse proxy to send this post! They have never given me any problems

@dansup I'll second this.

I've been running multiple separate servers on DO for years and never had an issue (Mastodon (2 servers), Peertube, WordPress, WireGuard VPN, mail server, Phanpy, Bluesky PDS, and a general web server) with never a problem. I also use 2 DO Managed Postgres DBs and a DO Managed MySQL DB. Everything runs fast. Their support is excellent. They have many excellent tutorials.

Once they contacted me because I forgot to close a port in the firewall a few hours after I forgot to close it, so they do security scanning as well.

Scaling to a larger server, to get more disk space, or a larger DB is just a click.

Automated backups.

I think they are worth the small extra cost.

I'm a bit frustrated with Android at the moment, I've spent hours tonight trying to upgrade the Pixelfed app to the latest RN version (and the tons of deps we use)

I'm nearly there, I can feel it... πŸ˜…

Jocelynephiliac :reclaimer:

@dansup this exact experience is why I haven’t returned to react native. I largely enjoyed the development experience, but dependency updates broke the app every damn time.

Hey there, @pixelfed

I just created an account, but the confirmation link I received is broken, could you help me with that?

I created my account with 'marcioaleks' as my username.

Stop platform hate, create or collaborate

The #fediverse isn't perfect, it's the best solution we have

You can make a difference, simply by participating in a project/platform and suggesting ideas or reporting bugs

You don't need to know how to code to make this place better, but if you want to make a bigger impact, it does help

We need to stop shitting on fedi platforms like Mastodon and see the fediverse as the competitor to centralized social platforms

@dansup In fairness, some devs can be overtly hostile to suggestions / ideas. That can be off-putting for those with ideas, you know?

@dansup
I have not seen any of that going on. I agree with what you say - 100%. The Fediverse is awesome.

Between Pixelfed, Groups, Loops, PubKit and Sup, I'm struggling to meet my self-imposed deadlines to a degree that I'm delaying several journalist interviews

I was planning on working on Loops tonight, however I noticed our Pixelfed TestFlight build expires in 13 days so I had to jump back to the Pixelfed app, and now I'm working on Push Notification support

It's not a big deal really tho, I work better under pressure and love these challenges

Press: Pls wait a min, til we're ready to shine ✨

@dansup πŸ₯Ί Please, slow down and take care of yourself, Dansup.

Blortβ„’ πŸ€β“‹πŸ₯·β˜£οΈ

I work at my best under pressure at the last minute, too. That said, while it was productive, I also learned that doing it that way consistently just burned me out. It works well for a while, but after a while it can be stressful and counterproductive.

Take care of yourself, @dansup.

Is it possible to delegate some of these tasks?
