Never anticipated I would add Groups to Pixelfed. I saw how my partner uses FB Groups and it clicked.

This is exactly what we're missing in the fediverse, a means to discover and engage with interests and topics that interest you.

Hashtags and local/network timelines only do so much.

@dansup as others have said, this sounds like a reimplementation of Lemmy. To me, one of the nice parts of the fediverse is being closer to the Unix philosophy of do one thing, do it well, and communicate with an easy/open standard so others can do complementary things.

Pixelfed is for photos. Lemmy (and the others) are for groups.

@dansup I'm sure you've done the right choice, but have you considered Mobilizion ?

Pixelfed Groups has a feature called SlowJoin mode that allows you to define fine-grained permission limits for several actions.

In addition, all group activities from users, mods and admins are logged in an easy to browse Interaction Log. Should you need to apply limits to a specific member, you can limit most actions on the member tab!

We pioneered the concept of cross group moderation in 2021, and are in the final stages of implementation.

Pixelfed Groups will support private or local-only groups!

In addition, we will offer many features and settings to make managing your group, moderators and users more effective and easier!

@dansup will this still focus around images, or all types of content?

Carl

@dansup I know I repeat myself, but PLEASE add filtering by account. I would love to be able to mute accounts--not even because I hate them or anything, just because they post stuff I have no interest in, that clogs my feed (e. g. hundreds of images of architecture--not my thing).

@dansup This is awesome and looks a bit like Flickr groups!

✨ Improved Embeds are now available!

- Inline css/js (eliminates ~4mb of assets per embed)
- Grid media now uses thumbnails instead of full size media
- Fixed profile embed height bug
- Fixed multiple embeds on same page
- More efficient backend logic, eliminating db queries in most cases

See for yourself: dansup.github.io/pixelfed-embe

@pixelfed Thanks! 👍 The only thing I still miss is that posts with more than one pic are shown in the embed box, too (with thumbnail of the first pic). Currently they don't appear at all in the box.

Super pumped to onboard more devs to PubKit.net Radar this weekend!

🚀

pixelfed

Okay, so, remember how I had some big news? Well, I didn't get to announce it yesterday as I was unwell (I've been unwell most of the month and could really do with extra financial support right now!)

The big news is that my FIRES project has been granted funding by NLNet (@NGIZero) Entrust fund.

What is FIRES? It's a project I've been slowly working since September last year, and provides a server for maintaining and distributing moderation advisories and recommendations.

Yes to a safer federation, and don’t forget the oxygen mask principle 🤗

@thisismissem @NGIZero

just a little question: who the heck are you to tell others how to manage their own instances?

dansup

@thisismissem @NGIZero Soooo happy for you girl!! I remember the miscommunication and how difficult that was, and I’m glad you did resolve it because this project will have such an impact across many fediverse projects!!

You totally deserve this, and I’m glad your hard work is being acknowledged and funded!

You’re a fucking fediverse rockstar, and now you’ll shine even brighter with the grant and resources to see this through. Gosh I’m just so happy for you ❤️

pixelfed

Looking forward to onboarding more pubkit.net developers this weekend!

Got a lot of positive feedback so far, and am looking forward to getting more so I can improve our products even more.

Remember, PubKit will be opt-in so you need to verify ownership of your server/domain before you can send/receive activities to that domain, this will prevent abuse and ensure usage respects fediverse norms!

@pixelfed @Mastodon removed twitter app in January from my mobile. :ablobcatrave:

victorjavierlo

@pixelfed @Mastodon I really would like to see the pixelfed iOS app in my iPhone soon! Bye bye X!!

crazyeddie

@pixelfed @Mastodon You have to unlock the ability to connect and DM on xitter?? What, by clicking 100 adverts or something?

✨ Federation Issues? Let PubKit help.

Now accepting beta registrations!

pubkit.net

#PubKit #activityPub #developers

Samuel Hautamäki

@pixelfed "Beta registrations" does that mean that this is not open?

Lety Does Stuff

@pixelfed Probably not the right place to ask about this, but is Pixelfed federation whitelisted?

I've had some Pixelfed users say that they're not able to search for or follow me (at this account) from their Pixelfed account. 👉 👈

✨ First class hCaptcha Support

Did you know you can easily enable hCaptcha support?

Simply navigate to the Admin Dashboard, then Settings and click the Platform tab.

Then you can tap the "Enable hCaptcha" checkbox, and enter the Secret and Site key

You can enable hCaptcha for the login or register page, or both!

@pixelfed that does still need the warning about the accessibility issues hCaptcha causes.

Wowik

@pixelfed hcaptcha is as terrible as a captcha can get. Also very stupid tasks with wrong solutions

Art of the Kevin

@pixelfed Confused, I’m also running v0.11.13 but my settings page doesn't look like that. Mine still shows “Registration Status” with the checkmarks below for ActivityPub, Account Migration, and the like. Is there something I need to enable?

✨ Pixelfed open sources mobile app

We're refactoring the mobile app to prepare for the app store, and have published the source code!

It's not much yet, but check again in 12 hours 😎

@pixelfed Genuine question: Why wasn't it open source to begin with?

Airikr

@pixelfed Will you release the APK file on GitHub, too? I refuse to use Google Play Store 🙂

✨ Pixelfed Stories

Share your daily adventures through photos and videos that disappear in 24 hours.

It's a simple way to give friends and followers a peek into your life without cluttering your main feed.

Perfect for those moments that are worth sharing, but not necessarily saving forever!

#pixelfed #stories

dansup

@pixelfed Btw, in case it wasn't clear, 2 of those Stories are from remote accounts!

Stories are federated, so your followers can view them on any other Pixelfed server!

Holm / The tooth

@pixelfed please also resolve the issue with errors in the Instagram migration 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏... I am so eager to delete all my content there, but the last ~100 posts just won't migrate, no matter how often I try. Thank you for all your work! ✨🙌

pixelfed

✨ Simpler Settings

Admins can now more easily manage Pixelfed settings from the dashboard!

You can configure many settings without having to restart your server or run commands 😎

We even have a list of default rules you can import with a single click!

@pixelfed@mastodon.social I look forward to receiving this release.

Braw :blob_cat_melt: 🏳‍🌈

@pixelfed woa, amazing!!

The only nit: I think Pixelfed doesn't let third-party clients know the image sizes, which causes slightly annoying layout shifts when the images are loading. Is this something that can be fixed?

Oh, perhaps this is an issue on Phanpy's side for not falling back to calculate box size based on the original size (Pixelfed doesn't expose `small` media attachment meta).

TΞX

@pixelfed oh ! Great news! I have to test it with #Statuzer :) (it was already kind of working before thanks to its CORS proxy fallback feature, but native support is way better)

We will never use your images to help train AI models.

@pixelfed I haven't heard of EyeEm. What is it? I mean besides techbro AI crap.

Chris 🦑

@pixelfed you cut out the part were they give you 30 days to opt-out via deleting your images. no option b. and no chance to bulk delete stuff.

Liam

@pixelfed There needs to be regulations requiring payment to creators if their content is used to train AI

Our Wikipedia page is at risk of being deleted because it may not meet notability guidelines.

Can we get some help?

We're not that familiar with Wikipedia or its processes, but we think our project is notable enough for inclusion.

F*%king deletionists. We had the same problem with the fediverse article when it was created. I once had to recreate the article for Tara Hernandez after it was deleted;

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AT

What we need is links to publications with an editor (ie not blogs, forum threads etc), which are about PixelFed, not just mentioning it in passing.

Can anyone help?

@pixelfed Wikipedia's rules for "notability" are ludicrous. A project like Pixelfed will be deemed by some self-important twit as "not notable" while there's 15,000 pages of information on a background character in a video game…

Technically you can appeal this, but thatt involves a bureaucratic war with people who can cite every obscure Wikipedia rule from memory. You basically need to find one of those who's on your side to win.

@pixelfed
The best thing is to collect a list of references to PixelFed.

Update: I checked the page and noticed there are many good references. But for sure we need more mainstream media to talk about PixelFed. Books or Academic papers would be great.

I don't know what is the basis for removing the page. Please share where it is discussed.

✨Groups by Pixelfed

Imagine if you could bring Facebook Groups to the fediverse, using your Pixelfed account!

Pixelfed Groups will be a separate and optional package that admins can install if desired.

Groups will ship with:

- Private Groups
- Mobile App
- Web UI
- Client API
- Federation (w/ Lemmy + others)
- Extensive mod tools

But wait, there's more, we're standardizing our Groups implementation so other projects can take advantage of our App and Client API.

Shipping Soon!

@pixelfed
Has there been any interest from the #Mastodon / #Mobilizon / #Bonfire teams on interoperability?

It seems that the value of #groups comes down to the network effect, so getting interoperability between the most group-focused #Fediverse apps is key.

Clearly Mobilizon / Bonfire are doing a lot of work here, while #Masto has a mass of users. It would also be interesting to see groups in some something like #Peertube, adding a differentiating factor to YouTube.

@pixelfed Maybe there is a version requirement for the new app build, I am getting An error occured when attempting to log in with pixelfed.sdf.org/ when the browser page is called

@pixelfed I installed the app and created a new account (via web because "other" do nothing in the app for me) and do now some tests :)
