A year ago, the only person who knew the name of the project besides @dansup was @yabirgb the @anfora developer.

Some might see us as competitors, we see it differently.

Together Anfora and Pixelfed are working to build fediverse features like Federated Filters, Live Streaming and Stories.

It's better when you work together.

@pixelfed @dansup @yabirgb @anfora Ah, the spirit of OSS. When standards are crafted by the people actually developing its uses :blobcat:

Speaking of which, is there an APub message for a calendar event (a la G Calendar)? Nextcloud probably did it already.

dansup

@pixelfed @yabirgb @anfora Sadly Anfora is no longer maintained, but when it was, we worked closely together on several features and ideas.

In a way, Anfora lives on through Pixelfed.

I really miss @yabirgb, and our dev chats.

Anfora & Pixelfed were both AP based photo sharing platforms, and even though we were technically competitors, it never felt that way.

Instagram/Tumblr Import will launch in v0.9.0 too! #pixelfed

I've got feedback from some heavy Instagram users that Instagram Import is the second most important feature for them (after federation). More important than MicroUI, Stories, etc.

Basically, lack of import is a show-stopper for them. Especially considering that Import does not seem to make sense for established accounts, and so if they migrate now, they won't be able to Import once it is implemented.

Would be great if you'd consider prioritizing it over other features.

@pixelfed you might want to make your promos with music that you have the actual license to use as I am pretty sure you don't have permission to use the Beetles for anything. Just a suggestion.

@pixelfed LAME. I HATE THIS STUPID TIME, I WANT TO LIVE IN THE TIME WHERE PIXELFED ALREADY EXISTS. TIME IS FUCKING LAME.

@pixelfed I currently donate using Patreon, is this the preferred method for donating? as you also seem to have a way to donate via OpenCollective or GitHub and possibly more.

@pixelfed I threw some money your way and I hope others do the same. I have gotten to use Pixelfed yet but looking forward to soon. Keep up the good work

The Github issue tracker is open to everyone, if you can't code or can't contribute for whatever reason please feel free to open an issue and voice your feedback, idea, suggestion. I will do my best!

I want to make this project accessible and welcoming to everyone. My 8 year old niece has even given me some feedback.

@pixelfed question: what’s the state of federation between pixelfed instances? I have an account on admires.art and am having trouble finding pixelfed.social accounts in search.

Christian P. MOMON

@pixelfed No, Github issue tracker is no open to everyone. It’s not open to people who don’t want to be tracked by a GAFAM. Not to the millions of people in a country boycotted by the American government.
Please, consider using Free Software forge.

This project wouldn't exist without the community feedback and support that has helped shape it.

Thank you!

@pixelfed Wow, this is a gorgeous improvement. Looks great!

@pixelfed The ui is looking good! Amazing work, fascinating to watch it grow!

pixelfed

Themes and re-blogs/sharing support have been started. Sharing will be a priority since its required for federation support. #darkThemePrototype

infinite love ⴳ

@pixelfed lowercase branding probably will look better if you're including the .social on the end

@pixelfed ich habe das Internet durchsucht und immer noch keine Lösung gefunden. Ich finde nur Beiträge die das gleiche Problem thematisieren.
Wie soll man Menschen zum Plattformwechsel motivieren, wenn man seine timeline nicht mitnehmen kann.
Ich weiß, das liegt nicht an Pixelfed, doch ohne eine userfreundliche Importfunktion schwindet die Motivation. Und die Menschen bleiben bei Instagram, obwohl sie von Werbung und Algorithmen genervt sind.

@pixelfed @pixelfed I have searched the internet and still have not found a solution. I only find posts that address the same problem.
How to motivate people to switch platforms if you can't take their timeline with you.
I know it's not Pixelfed's fault, but without a user-friendly import function, the motivation dwindles. And people stay on Instagram even though they're annoyed by ads and algorithms.

@pixelfed This is so cool! Just started on pixey.org and started migrated from Instagram. Well done!

"standing on the shoulders of giants"

This project would not be possible without the pioneering work of evanp and @cwebber along with @Gargron and @mmn and many others!

I really look forward to the May 31st beta launch of pixelfed.org

@pixelfed
More info would help build hype I think. Right now I have no clue what it's about just from the frontpage.

Jared White

@pixelfed @cwebber @Gargron @mmn if this is sort of like Instagram meets the Fediverse, I am so in. Can't wait to see it!

pixelfed

May 31 is the target launch of the beta!

That will give me enough time to finish essential features and test federation with mastodon and pleroma.

@pixelfed Sorry if this question has already been asked:
Will Mastodon users be able to boost posts from Pixelfed (and whatever the equivalent is for Pleroma as well)?

@pixelfed Yey \o/

Let me know if you need anything copy-edited, or proof-read :)

We created this account two weeks before we published the initial source code and launched pixelfed.social

It's about time we post from our Pixelfed account, you should follow us on @PixelFed@pixelfed.social

We'll continue to post from this account too, but less frequently.
