✨ Explore our new API docs

Please keep in mind this is a beta preview, we are working hard to finish this!

beta-preview.pixelfed.io

Boosts greatly appreciated! #pixelfed #api #docs

dansup

@pixelfed I have to shoutout @trwnh for all their hard work they put into the Mastodon API docs.

I used the masto docs as a reference when writing the beta-preview.pixelfed.io/ docs, and I didn't just copy them out of respect to them and Mastodon.

It was kind of fun to write these docs, and I look forward to finishing them 😁

Pedro Piñera :tuist:

@pixelfed What did you use to build such a gorgeous website?

Wouldn't it be cool if you could easily change your @pixelfed username?

We're exploring and experimenting 😉

...hukka.

@pixelfed - Would it be something like...

key\username\nick

...where the only permanent is the key?

@pixelfed

Why is there no app? Deleted my insta and heard you guys were the fediverse alternative to zucker jail but the only app is fdroid which i downloaded and then promptly removed for not doing anything

@pixelfed @dansup I wish I could tap the software name in this graph & see more details on that software:

Booteille

@pixelfed Thanks for this update!

I just noticed top active PeerTube servers are not only counting new posts from the instance but from the federation. So most of them are just servers without local videos but with which are federating with most instances.

✨ New FediDB Graphs

fedidb.org now features 6 new software stat graphs per project!

Pixelfed and Mastodon are currently supported and we'll be adding support to other software projects soon.

@pixelfed oooh, pretty <3

Always love me some nice graphs!

Thomas Schmall

@pixelfed Coo. The simple style is great for readability.

That some stats are not "grounded" at 0 makes them a bit confusing/misleading.

"standing on the shoulders of giants"

Almost 5 years later, we're still so thankful for the pioneering work of @evan, @cwebber, @Gargron and many others.

They built the foundation of what would become the global community we call the fediverse!

❤️

Pixelfed post from May 22, 2018 that says:

&quot;standing on the shoulders of giants&quot;

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 https://pixelfed.org

@pixelfed @liaizon any news about the import feature from Instagram backups?

Sean C.

@pixelfed @liaizon i recently joined using the new onboarding and it was very easy to use

runarcn

@pixelfed @liaizon This is how the official mastodon app should have been made instead of onboarding everyone to mastodon.social.

Great work you guys!

@pixelfed first time trying Pixelfed! got TestFlight on iPhone 12 Mini iOS 16.4.1(a). couple issues:
- choose a server screen a little too long for 12 Mini.
- trying to sign up for an account on pixelfed.org hung on Please Wait screen and never finished.

I signed up on web at pixelfed.social and then could log in to app. All good from there.

✨ Links in bio

That's right, links, not link.

We're adding support for multiple profile links, and they will be compatible with Mastodon too!

But wait, there's more! We're also adding rel="me" support to allow users to self verify ownership and display a distinct badge across our web and mobile UIs!

Thanks for the idea @Mastodon 😁

@pixelfed @Mastodon Does rel=me also work the other way around, i.e. do the links also get rel=me on the Pixelfed side? If so, will you be able to choose what links to add that to? I.a.w., does the second link in the screenshot claim ownership of that as well?

I notice Mastodon doesn't allow you to choose but adds the rel=me anyway, which isn't a problem as long as it's a one-sided feature.

Fúlvio Leo

@pixelfed @Mastodon are links allowed on posts? I haven't tested it. If not, what do you think about it?

pixelfed

✨ Pixelfed Places, a feature that allows you to tag your post with a specific location.

We've heard you, and we're working to support any location or place!

We're also adding places search support so you can more easily browse places, and drafting a FEP so other projects can federate this location data like we do.

The recent Post Edit feature supports Places, allowing you to add or edit a location on your Pixelfed posts ⚡ #pixelfed #places

@pixelfed
That's awesome! Are you going to publish the app on fdroid too?

pixelfed

We just shipped a Post Edit bug fix, and an important ActivityPub delivery update that fixes an issue where a reply you made from Pixelfed gets delivered to mentioned users and the remote account you are replying to, regardless of if they follow you.

We previously only sent comments/replies you authored to only your followers, which meant that the person you replied to may never get the reply if they didn't follow you (or nobody on their server followed you)

Now that's fixed! ⚡

Adrian Morales

@pixelfed Hello, I have a question: Since a mobile app of Pixelfed does exist and it's pretty stable too, why won't you release it on the Play Store and App Store respectively? I tried the apk file since I'm on android, and it's pretty great, but not everyone is willing to do the same. It's not all that safe, either. An official version would bring in more users. Pixelfed deserves the same attention as Mastodon.

pixelfed

Now we've shipped Post Edits, next up is:

✨ Live Streaming
✨ Loops
✨ Stories

We're in our exciting era, expect much more excitement 🚀 #pixelfed

pixelfed

Post Edits are coming to our official mobile apps!

We'll be rolling out new app builds this weekend with Post Edit support! #pixelfed #postEdits

⚡ Android :pixelfed: users: have you tried @PixelDroid yet?

PixelDroid is an android app with first class Pixelfed support.

We recommend you give it a try, the devs are working on Post Edit and Story support too!

@PixelDroid We really ❤️ Pixeldroid

They were the first Pixelfed focused app that shipped, way before we started our own apps.

We will never forget their dedication to our project and community and hope you consider their android app before our own!

@pixelfed @PixelDroid
Out of curiosity, could I post to pixelfed, then somehow link those images to an Mastodon post?
