@pixelfed bingo. in as well. question tho. trying to update my profile (import JSON) but Pixelfed is asking for my password (I signed in using my Mastodon login, and that password isn't working)

Michael / マイケル

@pixelfed it’s requiring a redeem code for me to use the app again? But I don’t remember having one when I was using it before? I’m getting frustrated not being able to use the app for the past few days and only able to use the web version.

Steve has ☕️ for brains

@pixelfed does the UI let you specify “please don’t ever show me stories”?

One of the worst things on Insta for me, I literally only tap through them to make them go away.

@pixelfed yet another feature that i love on other platforms, but never use due to the companys behind them, keep up the good stuff😄

✨ Sneak Peek of Sign-in with Mastodon

We're almost ready to ship this ground breaking feature which vastly improves our onboarding experience for Mastodon users!

It will be shipping later today after I (@dansup) get some sleep, sorry it's a bit late, this is a complex feature.

@pixelfed @dansup Thank you so fucking much! I had recently created an account on both kbin and mastodon, so didn't want to create a new account. Thanks again and good luck for future!

@pixelfed maybe pixelfed hackathons? to solve issues?

-_- but I am not an Android programmer, 'm writing just from the bench

@pixelfed increased my donation! I hope you’re doing well, thank you for all your work. You bring lots of excitement to this corner of the internet and I’m very grateful to have an alternative to Instagram.

"Your recent post has been unlisted"

Have you encountered this notification before?

Don't worry, it's not personal.

We use advanced spam detection to keep our timelines free of spam.

A human admin/moderator will get notified and be able to restore public visibility to any of your posts that were unlisted.

It's a small price to pay to keep our communities safe and free from spam!

Pixelfed notifications with one that says "Your recent post has been unlisted"
Warning that says:

"Why was my post unlisted?
We use automated systems to help detect potential abuse and spam. Your recent post was flagged for review.
Don't worry! Your post will be reviewed by a human, and they will restore your post if they determine it appropriate.
Once a human approves your post, any posts you create after will not be marked as unlisted. If you delete this post and share more posts before a human can approve any of them, you will need to wait for at least one unlisted post to be reviewed by a human."

@pixelfed lost my first account because no one would open my posts. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@pixelfed I want to say that it's time! But in fact, I'm very impatient.

Hey there, my #PixelFed account @axolotl@pixelfed.social was terminated without warning a while ago. How do I get it back?

⚠️ iOS TestFlight users

While trying to make more room for new beta testers, our builds and ability to publish new builds was revoked by Apple.

We're in touch with them, and they are looking into this. Once we have more info, we'll pass it along!

@pixelfed We‘ll just silently shake our heads about this happening in the first place, right?

pixelfed

We're still waiting to hear back from them.

We will be releasing a new Android build tonight though 👀

✨ Did you know you can disable comments when composing a new post?

Simply tap on the comments button, it will turn red and you'll see a "Comments Disabled" indicator.

We're working on more advanced comment settings to give our community even more control over their comment sections.

@pixelfed How does this work with federation? It can't stop Mastodon from commenting, can it?

Emelia 👸🏻

@pixelfed @dansup what happens if a not pixelfed user replies to a comment disabled post?

emmausa

I am really impressed with the comment shortcut because this will ensure the privacy of the poster. mapquestdirections.org

@pixelfed I suppose this AI will need data to train, will it use pixelfed posts for that purpose? If yes, will it be possible to opt-out?

pixelfed

Sometimes admins make mistakes, or maybe you changed your mind after deleting your account, only to want to re-use your old username.

We are working on an appeal process that will allow suspended or deleted users to reclaim their old username!

HNT😎

@pixelfed Hi there. When will TestFlight re-upload?

Sean C.

@pixelfed and i bet you will have it up and running faster than my pending appeal to Twitter over my 15 year old account they suspended for no reason and notice weeks ago

✨ Better Discovery + #pixelfedApp

Shipping soon to our Android app, and later to our iOS TestFlight once Apple fixes that for us! 🚀

Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️

@pixelfed I'm all for tools to help people discover interesting relevant accounts, especially when they're new.

Just please, please, please make sure that the discovery algorithm is based on *relevance to the users interests* and not *popularity* or *engagement* so we don't just repeat the mistakes and horrors of social networks past.

eg. Match the hashtags they define for their account, or the keywords they post, not whatever posts are popular and have replies / favorites.

@pixelfed when can we play with the android app?

U.S. Elaine for Harris

@pixelfed I find that whenever I click through to a pixelfed profile from Mastodon (using Ivory) none of the posts show, and their follower/ following counts are zero.

pixelfed

pixelfed.com will be launching later this month as our new flagship instance!

We think pixelfed.com is more memorable and less confusing for new users. ✨

@pixelfed excellent decision. Will make it easy for new and less tech savvy users

Gio :verified:

@pixelfed I think this is a good move. Too many people don't understand the new .whatever extensions. Mainstream adoption should be the goal

Vojtěch Fošnár

@pixelfed .social feels much better for a fediverse project than a .com domain, +1 for just a redirect

@pixelfed hey need some help, does pixelfedapp allow mastodon.world logins???

I want to use id (rampagecat@mastodon.world) to post in pixelfed, how can I do that, which app to use in Android

arnoid

@pixelfed The public beta test flight link for iOS says “there is the a problem with the public link URL. Please Contact the developer for more info”

Kameka

@pixelfed tried to sign up using the APK instance of Pixelfed from the website and once I get to the "confirm your details" page and click "next" it just keeps thinking and shows "please wait" and a cancel link and nothing happens. Any insights on how to get by this screen?

⚠️ TestFlight Users:

While updating our testing groups, our active builds were expired meaning you may have lost access to the beta app.

We're working to fix this, and apologize for the inconvenience

DELETED

@pixelfed When does the official Android app start?

Alex

@pixelfed is it going to be reverted automatically or I need to subscribe to beta again somehow?

pixelfed

We are removing TestFlight users who never installed the app to make room for more active users!

@pixelfed Why was I removed from the beta test? I was using the app actively, I even updated it yesterday :’)

Marcus Richter

@pixelfed It says "Beta not found" in TestFlight, when trying to join via the link on your site.

one of a number of patricks

@pixelfed in 2 TestFlight builds I have been unable to sign up for an account. Endless please wait spinner. Should I sign up on the web to be able to sign in?

pixelfed

Should we add a comments tab to profiles that displays recent comments? #askFedi

Boosts appreciated!

@pixelfed When can we expect your iOS app to be on the app store?

Pavel Ra

@pixelfed Instagram import still not working with cyrilic description for me :[

S.A. Wilson

@pixelfed so when I signed up I joined pxlmo and am now just realizing that it may not support the import from IG functionality. But pixelfed.social does, and presumably pixelfed.com will… is that correct?
