⚠️ New mobile app build

The previous build we shipped an hour ago had a bug that affected uploading a new post.

We fixed that and shipped a new build (1.0.0.29) for Android and iOS!

We apologize for the inconvenience!

APK sha256: 2f1efe5a7202cc7d102223197e29c0278532977b7e205e9f82888e4ab989c1c4

@pixelfed why can't I zoom the pictures anymore? That tipping and the pinch wasn't a good way but it was possible.. do you plan to add that again?

(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧*:・゚✧

@pixelfed Is three a reason the iOS app’s nav and tab bars are completely opaque instead of the usual swift blur? Also the back page in the profile tab that switches you back to the home feed is very weird and doesn’t follow HIG

highncr :linux:

@pixelfed I think I've found a bug, the app crashes when I am starting typing in a direct message conversation.

⚠️ We're aware of an issue with sharing new posts in the new #pixelfedApp build

We're working on a fix, stay tuned!

Edit: The fix has been shipped!

pixelfed

Android #pixelfedApp users who've updated to the latest build (1.0.0.28):

Have you noticed that with dark mode enabled, you don't see white flashes when navigating across screens and an overall faster experience?

We're working on another huge performance boost for the next build ✨

SQU∄▲KY P▲Nᐊ▲K∄S

@pixelfed Its better but I do still notice white flashes in the settings menu

VION

@pixelfed just updated...no white flashes except a bit flash on the settings menu...but overall, it's smooth..✨

✨ New app build is rolling out!

The sha256 for the APK is fef6bfe8a2d290370f0bfe1df60234c615a693d76edd1ed8ddd9184481afe98a

We hope you like the improvements, we have more coming soon 🚀 🎉 #pixelfed #pixelfedApp

@pixelfed much smoother than before but the alt text UI could still be better.

Hard to write descriptions that are accurate when the images being described are tiny thumbnails you can’t enlarge! This applies to both the app and web UI.

@pixelfed @dansup I have the testflight on ios but something happened and I can't update and now it says I need an invite code even though I have the beta already installed. Is there a chance I could get a code sent as it was from a Mastodon post originally which I can't find.

PlasticMonkey

@pixelfed just downloaded and will join the Pixelfed community then as well. :-)))

Regarding Instagram Import, we've heard your feedback and will be implementing some improvements:

- Public visibility by default
- Improved caption parsing
- Clear pending imports (rate limited)
- Mass remove existing imported posts (rate limited)

We hope to get these shipped later this week! #instagramImport #pixelfed

Steve has ☕️ for brains

@pixelfed Glad this is getting attention! Will I have to then delete the 150+ posts that I imported already, or will there be some way to fix them?

Suitbert Monz :mastodon:

@pixelfed The day you will launch these features I will leave IG! Thanks a lot for your great dev work! You do make social media a better place to be.

Suitbert Monz :mastodon:

@pixelfed Any status update on the IG import function improvement!? Thanks.

pixelfed

We are working on OIDC support, and exploring IndieAuth!

The Sign-in with Mastodon feature uses Mastodon specific APIs and is a temporary measure until we get OIDC in place and other platforms support it!

@pixelfed @dansup I'm still a bit new to this federation concept, would the recommendation be to use your Mastodon account for both PixelFed and Mastodon, or keep two separate accounts? Are the posts presented correctly across both services? Are only posts with images shown on PixelFed? Will the toot text become the image caption? Is there a FAQ that answers this for me? 😁

Jeff Sikes

@pixelfed IndieAuth! Nice. My site is all setup with it so let me know if you need a tester.

@pixelfed

@dansup if you mean real blocking, and not just muting, then you really are shining a light in the dark where Eugen couldn't get his lamp turned on. You are awesome.

Screenshot of the user domain block section. Text: 
"User Domain Block
All Pixelfed users should have the ability to block domains, regardless of admins"
pixelfed

We're in talks with some folks who are working to standardize the blocklist format across implementations and will be holding off on this endeavour while this is finalized so this can be compatible with other projects!

That being said, you can import and export blocklists using the admin dashboard right now!

@pixelfed Default blocklists are an excellent first step in reducing harm, but please ensure administrators can choose to make their implementation of such a blocklist private, as public accessibility of an instance blocklist can be harmful for some communities who do not wish to invite abuse and harassment for using such a blocklist.

There are more than a few conversations happening around blocklist format standards, I recommend not waiting and building in flexibility to accommodate later.

@pixelfed Great work! I already have a Pixelfed account I want to keep, how do I link my Mastodon and Pixelfed accounts?

Edit: We shipped this, pixelfed.blog/p/2023/feature/i

Interesting question: what happens if I move to another mastodon instance?

@pixelfed Selected 1\100

But I can choose from 37 not 100. And I need to select from all photos.

I didn't know that was now editable. Thanks!

@pixelfed where would be a good place to send feedback about this feature specifically.

pixelfed

Spam sucks.

We built the best spam detection system in the fediverse, using a combination of machine learning and behavioural analysis!

Best part is that this doesn't depend on any 3rd party service or API, and you can share/import training data.

Sometimes the most magical features are those we don't see 😎

@pixelfed I’d love to read something like “how I built modern antispam with ML and BA”

djw

@pixelfed While I haven't used it yet, I very much appreciate the work put into it to require no third-party svc/API.

People around here really do care about that stuff.

@pixelfed ah sweet, an AI training model running on my server

@pixelfed This will bring some much needed recurring income to better fund project development, really excited about this!

@pixelfed it would be interesting if #Lemmy could use this as a photo storage as well.

Sorry for the confusion, Sign-in with Mastodon is for easily joining a Pixelfed instance using your Mastodon avatar, bio, display name, username and accounts you follow.

You can also use it to link to an existing account for faster sign-in.

You cannot use your Mastodon account as a Pixelfed account, they are separate. We may support that in the future 😉

@pixelfed Aaahhhhh noooo, I thought it was possible to use Mastodon to sign up on Pixelfed. Damn, that would have been cool.

GeneBean

@pixelfed bummer, that would have been awesome.

pollute_my_lungs 🚎🏳️‍🌈

@pixelfed I don't understand this. Do I need to make a separate account to be on pixelfeed?

pixelfed

Sign-in with Mastodon is ready to ship!

We are testing this internally, and will be shipping this later this week 🚀

The IG Import feature was rushed and wasn't ready when it was initially shipped, we don't want to make that mistake again.

We promise it will be worth the wait 😉 #signInWithMastodon

We're periodically adding more spots to our iOS TestFlight

@pixelfed sadly I cannot use Pixelfed app for how many months.
I'm forced to use Tusky by now. What's wrong?
The problem is with Pixelfed.Tokyo

@pixelfed just installed the apk on my phone...looks amazing and super clean!!❤️

@pixelfed I’m on iOS 15.7.7 and I’m getting a message that the app isn’t compatible with my device :(

@pixelfed apologize for asking something you probably get asked a lot - is there an Instagram data archive import feature, including keeping my date/time metadata? (IG posts since 2013)

Paul Hulford

@pixelfed for some reason when I put in my server “mastodon.social” I receive this error.

Mastodon 🤝 Pixelfed

Sign-in in less than 60 seconds, with your Mastodon account.

⚠️ iOS TestFlight Users

The latest build requires iOS 16.1, but that was a mistake.

We will be publishing a new build with the previous minimum version of iOS 13!

Sorry about this 😅

@pixelfed will it auto show in TestFlight or do we need to subscribe to testing again?

@pixelfed i am getting time outs when trying to create an account, and when trying to login. I tried logging in again, but via vernissage and got this error message.

Don't like Stories? Hide them.

When hidden you will never see the Story carousel or receive any notifications about Stories!

Shipping soon 🚀

@pixelfed I absolutely love how everything is togglable. I never did use Instagram when it came out and I never did use the Facebook Reels so I think it's awesome that you guys have added this feature on here. I can't wait to see more 🔥

That "Robbie" guy

@pixelfed Brilliant way to handle things! Toggles are definitely the way to go 💖
