Adding alt text to your photos is important, it improves accessibility. That's why we added an opt-in feature you can enable to force you to add alt text before you post, now available on our web UI and official #pixelfedApp βΆοΈ Navigate to Settings then Media to enable this #altText #accessibility

@pixelfed Honestly, this is exactly the kind of job AI was made for. Describing the content of an image nowadays is one of the easiest jobs for AI. Iβm all for adding alt text to images, but thatβs not the users job (and thatβs exactly why it fails in practice for now).

@pixelfed My fav thing is the Collections feature. Itβs like having Google Photos and Instagram rolled into one! @pixelfed hello pixelfed. i have an account at pixelfed.social/@mastomememakers -i use it as a hall of fame for my old memes; is there any way to edit posts? (thought i wouldnt need hashtags for old memes, big mistake) best regards and thanks for all your efforts β οΈ We've identified a bug when attempting to crop an image you just captured, it affects both Android/iOS. Temporary workaround: We'll roll out a fix soon! #pixelfedApp @pixelfed Awesome that you fix those bugs and post workarounds. Any workaround for the post button not working on 1.0.0.13 on a Samsung Galaxy S22 with Android 13? It really limits me on creating new posts. @pixelfed I saw that somebody posted before a problem with doubled account, it happened to my new acc - I added the profile picture and 1st post and that somehow created the 2nd account - now I can log in into the account without posts and empty profile picture but I can see the other one in the search and I can follow it . β‘Pixelfed for Android (build 13) with Dark Mode, Account Switching and more!

@pixelfed @pixelfed I really appreciate that dark mode is coming. Right now PixelFed is the only Fediverse app I have that doesnβt have the option to display that way.

@pixelfed Thank you! <3 My usual whiner: Please, please, please fix the basic federation related functionality, i.e. the sharing of posts or interaction with Mastodon accounts, first. I still miss much social momentum on Pixelfed due to the lack of this. Other than that, I agree: This all sounds fantastic! :pixelfed: Server Admins: If you want your server to be included in our in-app registration picker, ensure you follow these requirements: - 10+ active accounts

@pixelfed Wow! Pixelfed wird das tausend mal bessere Instagram. Vielen Dank dafΓΌr. π€ @pixelfed what do you think about adding information about green hosting to the list? E.g. like it is done here https://greenfediverse.codeberg.page/green-instances/

@pixelfed can you add a button to add an image straight from the gallery? I have a lot of issues starting the camera on my pixel 7. Takes forever. @pixelfed the app is great! Been running it on Android and it's super smooth. Keep up the good work :D @pixelfed Great news! Jist been looking for it :) if you need iOS beta testers, Iβm up to try it anytime!

Discovery is important, especially for people that recently join pixelfed servers. We're working to integrate our People Directory (https://fediverse.info/explore/people) into our webUI and mobile apps! This will make it easy to discover people to follow regardless of how new your server is. Admins will be able to opt-in, curate listings shown to their users, and allow their local users to submit/manage their own listing! #discovery #pixelfed

@pixelfed I added my pixelfed account into a mastodon app (metatext), and don't see a "follow" button when I view somebody's account (like if they commented on my post and I want to see if they're worthy of a follow). Is that a Metatext issue, or something funky with Pixelfed's configuration?

@pixelfed I don't like the portrait aspect ratio on the discover page... Most images use a landscape or square aspect ratio so much of the image is cropped there... β‘ New #pixelfedApp Android build! - Fixed Manual Login βΆοΈ https://dl.apps.pixelcdn.net/pixelfed-android-beta/pixelfed-android-v1.0.0.1.apk sha256: d6edd660515a2abdc4577592ffac46a76ed37c7f4ee0064a5673024237408c8e

@pixelfed thanks a lot! Busy building and deploying this update just this minute. #Pixelfed
@pixelfed speaking of federation issues, I noticed that I can't view older posts from accounts on pixey.org, through my pixelfed.social account, and vice-versa. Is that expected behavior?
@pixelfed
The 'remote share/reblog notifications' thing definitely seems fixed, although shortly after I posted some photos my single-person instance managed to get itself stuck on *all* web-serving stuff, not just Pixelfed - restarting Apache appears to have fixed it.
(Restarting the web server after a significant Pixelfed update might be a required thing regardless - I may have just independently discovered this...)
