Seeing what happened with cohost

I'm so glad I turned down VC funding for @pixelfed

We can grow sustainably, without sacrificing the mission or our ethics!

@pixelfed Will be limited to the official mobile app until we have full WebPush support (that will work with 3rd party apps)

As much as I'd love to ship initial support for 3rd party apps, the way that Laravel handles WebPush would limit it to one per user instead of one per auth token so it would only work with one app at a time (unlike Mastodon which supports multiple, which I want to emulate, but it will take add'l time)

I think this is a good compromise for now!

Beyond Expectations ✨

That's what I strive for.

Like building a feature for the @pixelfed app to help people remember what server they joined.

recovery.pixelfed.org/forgot-i

Or building a Discovery Service that allows app users to explore content, even on a brand new Pixelfed instance!

beagle.pixelfed.net/api/v1/dis

Or even building the first #fediverse People Directory

fediverse.info/explore/people

I make it look easy, but y'all make it worth it ❤️

And of course you also get credit for fedidb.org/ .

Thanks, @dansup , for all you do.

@dansup @pixelfed Oh wow. How does the 'i forgot what server I joined' feature work? Does it check the username on all the known servers, or..?

As a kid I was always told that cats and dogs don't get along well, but so far I've only seen the opposite

I get lots of interaction on my #pixelfed account.

Thinking of deleting my #Flick account, where I only got one like. From my boss.

BTW I have some issue to upgrade old version (v0.11.12), where I can find some help?

Or is somewhere upgrade guide for that old versions?

Guy Streeter

@dansup @pixelfed Did I miss the huge Friday the 13th announcement? I've looked for it but don't see anything.

pixelfed

We just shipped partial Account Migration support!

This means:

- You can migrate from other servers to Pixelfed
- Accounts that migrate between servers will be updated (even if you mute/block them)

We say partial, because we are missing one final piece to support outbound migration to Pixelfed, Mastodon or other platforms.

That final piece will be shipping later today!

@pixelfed super cool feature add. thanks for efforts :)

Mieszko Ślusarczyk

@pixelfed What about Instagram import? I’ve tried one today and even though it started migrating 56 posts nothing has finished migrating.

People over profits is the real magic of fedi

We're building the future ✨

No shareholders. Just people.

Yeah, we'll probably see monetization and corporate interests join the fedi, and that's okay because the power of the protocol lies in choice

And the best fediverse platforms are open source and mostly good stewards of AP interop

Y'all made this happen, us devs can only take so much credit ❤️

@dansup the natural state of the web and other technologies is federated. Think DNS, Web, Mobile, Email and now social media.

Monetisation is not a dirty word because creators, developers, admins etc need to keep the servers on and the apps developing but profit maximisation above all else just for shareholders is not the goal of the fediverse.

Money is another industry that needs federation. e.g bitcoin micropayments called SATs sent P2P over the lightning network is the future.

@dansup Remember that defederation harms decentralization and should be used as a last resort for instances that knowingly platform illegal content, have been notified about that content and do nothing about it. No moderation is perfect, but the highest priority for content moderation should be deleting illegal content and reporting it to the police, not policing naughty opinions and hurt feelings. When big tech knowingly focuses more on policing so called hate speech than protecting the millions of children that use their platforms, we all know where their priority lies. The fediverse can do better, and for the most part it is doing better. If Gab, Gettr, Truth Social, Minds, Threads and other corporate platforms want to connect, let them, let mastodon users hear what corporate fediverse users have to say, but just because you are a corporation doesn't mean you get a free pass to to be monopolize. The open protocol must remain open, but if we are to respect their rules than they must respect ours. That means that they do not get to complain about the otherwise lawful content we platform, nor do they get to complain about the fact that challenging corporate power is allowed on mastodon. Openness goes both ways and corporate platforms need to respect that, and we should respect that too.

Love the support, y'all keep me energized and hungry.

@dansup @pixelfed @NGIZero

wait!

I can move my mastodon account into pixelfed?

Without loosing ppl?

Whats next? not loosing data?

Dansup you are too kind for us.

Love ya

@dansup

The Masto compatibility is so cool, really reminds you it's the Fediverse and not a walled garden 👏

Paul Shryock

@dansup @pixelfed @NGIZero is it possible to just use both Mastodon and PixelFed with the same account, without having to choose one or the other?

pixelfed

Flickr, Instagram, 500px, Unsplash and BeReal are ok photo sharing platforms

But, they are walled gardens, aren't open source and don't federate

@pixelfed is in the perfect place, at the right time, to be able to disrupt this status quo

We don't have investors, all we have is people, and together we can fix this

The fediverse is a revolution, empowering the people, and reclaiming the digital landscape from the walled gardens

No more settling, it's our time now ✨

@dansup if any of those services started federating, but remained closed source, would that change your opinion?

I ask because I’m working on something that is closed source, but will begin beta testing federation next week 😊

@dansup @pixelfed
I love the platform, but can’t upload RAW images, its the file size limit issue I think.

Seth 🎙️:jawn_sg:

@dansup @pixelfed I love @pixelfed. You're doing such a great job! Keep up the good work @dansup

@pixelfed Would it be technically possible to statically host pixelfed instance on github webpages?

Primal Anomaly

@pixelfed it’s interesting, I am looking forward to seeing the platform grow and evolve! My top requests are dark mode for the iOS app (I appreciate it’s still in TestFlight) and for some reason when I command-click on anything on the web it doesn’t open links in a new tab, which any other website does - very weird.

Mieszko Ślusarczyk

@pixelfed Great, especially regarding HEIC - which is what iPhones shoot by default. There have been rumours of Apple shifting to JPEG XL, which looks very promising - maybe you should look into that as well?

3,400 active @pixelfed (Android) app beta testers so far!

@dansup @pixelfed i wonder if both android and ios apps will be released at the same time or it all depends on tests?

[DATA EXPUNGED]
pixelfed

A new app build is rolling out today (v1.0.0.69) to TestFlight and Play Store Beta testers!

Sacha Obado

@pixelfed I am unable to log into the updated app. When I click login it redirects me to the browser when I enter my account details then asks me to approve and loads the screen back to the app screen where it asks me to login again

pixelfed

$ git clone github.com/pixelfed...
$ cd pixelfed
$ composer install && php artisan serve
- open browser to serve url
- web installation

Yes, you will soon be able to install @pixelfed in minutes using the new web installer with a much simpler, yet smarter process!

Available soon! ✨

@dansup @pixelfed I look forward to the release of version 1.0 of the Android app. 🤩

@dansup @pixelfed dan is it possible to run a pixel fed instance on the same server as a mastodon instance ?

pixelfed

I'm almost finished fixing Account Migrations in @pixelfed

If you're worried you lost (pixelfed) followers during a migration, don't fret!

Once I ship this, and pixelfed instances update, you simply need to redo the migration from your old account (it won't break anything, but is limited to once per 7 days in Mastodon)

And you're Pixelfed followers will be migrated to your new account!

pixelfed

We will be announcing updated rules on altered or AI-generated content originating from pixelfed.social and pixelfed.art later this evening.

We want to be better fediverse neighbours, and will be limited some aspects of non original content, such as hashtags.

More information to follow.

🐙🐙

@pixelfed I dont think I ever saw if this was clarified. I checked the rules of both sites and they seem to be the same.
