Our new mobile app isn't out yet, but we are working to improve our mastoapi compatibility so you can use mastodon mobile apps with #pixelfed!

Instance admins can set `EXP_EMC=true` in .env (and clear the cache) in the latest commits to test it out.

@pixelfed hope its android. Would be awesome to be able to post to Instagram and pixelfed at the same time.

@pixelfed I’m running the latest dev commits but it isn’t working for me in either Metatext or the official app for iOS.

@pixelfed Would it be possible at some point to add location to old posts?

Groosha

@pixelfed looks great!
Will there be any improvements for Stories feature?
For now, it's buggy and not fun to use at all :(

pixelfed

Happy new year! 🥳

We've shipped quite a few bug fixes, improved mastoapi + postgres support, and added some features to the new UI! #pixelfed

@pixelfed is a new release planned ? 🙂
I'm curious to test the new UI, but #Yunohost package depends on new release to be updated.

Carlo Gubitosa :nonviolenza:

@pixelfed happy 2022! Any news about the feature to import instagram backups and rebuild on a pixelfed instance my history of photoblogging without starting from scratch?

pixelfed

We heard you and we do listen!

You can now disable fixed height media previews on timelines, and soon on other pages.

The original aspect ratio may not be preserved yet, but we're working on that. #pixelfed #metroUI

@pixelfed I really like that one, the pictures looks very neat this way (and with the rounded corners 👌) 👍

pixelfed

We shipped some improvements for the new UI based on your feedback! 🎉

✨ "Try new UI" promo in old timelines
✨ New dropdown menu
✨ Fixed-position sidebars + nav
✨ Improved responsiveness

Lot's more updates coming! #pixelfed

pixelfed

We hope everyone had a happy holiday!

A few days ago we released the Metro UI 2.0 beta, now we want your feedback!

Please reply to this post with your feedback and we'll do our best to incorporate them! #pixelfed #metroUI

@pixelfed The hit areas for the “Like” “Share” and “Comment” buttons feel tiny on mobile and hard to press.

I agree with the comments about the UI feeling like a microblogging platform like Tumblr rather than a photo sharing one. If Pixelfed’s main purpose is to share photos, then I’d suggest removing the padding around images and turning off the “fixed height media previews” setting by default. Let the photos take up all the space available to them - that’s what we came to see

Chris Wood

@pixelfed I really like the new profile view! The masonry and timeline views are brilliant. It looks so tidy, and the user’s posts really take centre stage.

In the grid view, I was pleasantly surprised to see video thumbnails auto-play. Is there any way to turn this off though for people with cognitive disabilities who would prefer not to have moving elements on the page?

山万重兮一云

@pixelfed I like this new UI set because it looks elegant and simple. However, when I toggled the display of images in the user's profile, I noticed that the effect of the second of these buttons was that the number of likes was no longer displayed on the image.

pixelfed

New i18n updates! 🎉

➡️ 13 languages supported!

Now available in the latest commits! #pixelfed #i18n

@pixelfed This UI update is nice but posts in feed look like they are from a Facebook-like app and don't fit Pixelfed's concept. That should be updated to look more like the old UI with polishes in my opinion.

:dumpy: ThatOneCalculator

@pixelfed I've got a couple complaints, specifically for mobile

So many links lead back to the non-2.0 UI, it's practically a land mineI have to use it in the browser because the PWA shows the 1.0 UINotifications at the bottom completely disappearThe top nav bar is wayyy too big

Looks cool but very unfinished. As expected of a beta, ig

@pixelfed where do we lodge feedback? If here, then:
- the pale grey against white is barely legible, and looks as though all the options are disabled, it wasn't until I clicked on "Create New" that I realised it worked
- viewing a single image is hard work, rather than just click on it, you have to find the three dots, click, find "View Post" and select it.
- the individual image view (eg pixelfed.social/i/web/post/383) no longer shows the date or time an image was posted, just the baby-fied "2d ago"

Magess :heart_ace:

@pixelfed @NGIZero If you add a Scottish Gaelic translation to the list, I can try to get some volunteers for that.

FoW

@pixelfed
I started a Korean translation job, but the string in the UI doesn't show up as a string in Crowdin and I can't find where the translation was applied.
Should I stop the translation task?

pixelfed

Our new UI is more than a fresh coat of paint.

We're also fixing several bugs, improving mobile app coverage, and extending federation support to more implementations!

Shipping soon 🚀 #pixelfed

@pixelfed
Looks very promising! Excited for years to use pixelfed, but I prefer to use it on mobile, so I'm waiting for an App release.
Have you considered to be on liberapay/patreon/gofundme in order to collect money to let you hire a mobile app developer to speed things up?

An early look at our post UI redesign

- Cleaner, content-first layout
- Album carousel redesign
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Better comments
- New meta fields

Let us know what you think! #pixelfed #postUI #redesign

@pixelfed I was originally attracted because it felt like you were emulating the simpler, more community-oriented early IG, which I missed.

This seems more utilitarian and a bit cluttered (particularly the table of attributes - I don't want the device to be displayed, and I feel the current UI better integrates the other attributes more subtly without having to label each one).

Alexandra Soroca 🎹

@pixelfed Would be really nice, if you could please straighten commenting. 🤔 It has turned really weird in the recent months. I have all but stopped commenting because of that. :(

mihai_zainea

@pixelfed I like it! Simple and efficient! Anything about posting comments in work?!

pixelfed

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback on our profile redesign!

Your feedback has helped us create a new design that we think you'll love! It will be shipping very soon.

Pixelfed Groups are coming along well and we'll release the beta soon! #pixelfed #groups #activitypub

@pixelfed is there a release date soon?
In germany there is now possibly a bit momentum since there was a popular show about the facebook papers.
And my significant other would like to convince some of her sewing fb groups to change.

Blake Leonard

@pixelfed for an image oriented site, i don't think this quite fits... Looks more like Facebook than anything I've seen on Fedi. Nevertheless, it's pretty cool!

pixelfed

We're redesigning profiles and want your feedback! Let us know what you think about this design and how we can improve it.

Boosts + feedback are greatly appreciated, the smallest gestures can have the biggest impact, and we are forever grateful for people like you! ❤️

@pixelfed
or there could be the option to choose whether or not your own page displays photos in square or not

Chris Wood

@pixelfed how will you display thumbnails for posts with multiple images?

At the moment, they have a large “image gallery” icon in the corner of the thumbnail. I find the icon looks quite large and dominating on mobile compared to the other UI elements on the page and would love to see it made smaller.

I prefer circular profile photos, and I also like the square grid. It’s neatly aligned, works well on mobile, and most importantly, it gives equal weight to each photo.

Alan Grant

@pixelfed I'm not sure sure if feedback it still requested on profiles. If it is, I wanted to mention that there seems to be a big difference between the appearance of the profile to logged in users versus people who are not logged in.

(Also the non logged in version doesn't seem to respect line breaks so several lines in my profile are run together).

pixelfed

Admins can perform bulk actions on autospam reports, and we added some new stats to the autospam dashboard because who doesn't like stats?

Now available! #pixelfed

pixelfed

Pixelfed users can now request a manual email verification if they cannot receive the confirmation email.

Admins can easily ignore or approve the request in the moderation section of the admin dashboard.

Now available! #pixelfed

Eugen Rochko

@pixelfed How can the admin know the mail belongs to this user?

Filbert Salim

@pixelfed Hi I just get to know you and I am curious to use since I have removed my Instagram account forever. But as well as @Mastodon, the apps are not available on Google Play Store. When will they be on Play Store? I can't wait to install it.

pixelfed

We're putting a fresh coat of paint on the setting pages and making them easier to use on desktop and mobile browsers!

Available in our next release! #pixelfed

@pixelfed please support specific pronoun field with arbitrary text input!

Markus Mann

@pixelfed Is Pixelfed still unusable in Safari's private mode? That should be a priority to work on IMO. Browsing in private mode is the only way of hiding a bit from all the surveillance that's going on out there.

Eugen Rochko

@pixelfed Wait, how does the private account thing work?
