@pixelfed
Ups, I pressed "show results" to see the results. Just to realise that was my vote.

@pixelfed I would pay $100/yr for early access to features (like Plex Pass) and a Kubernetes deployable artifact (not docker swarm).

@pixelfed Yes, I am setting up a Pixelfed instance basically just for local friends that want something other than IG for art/photography stuff and I can see where if most of the other people in the group wanted to do this it would make more sense for them to have it be like Wordpress and just click to install it somewhere.

@pixelfed which app do you recommend for #Android users? BTW: happy New Year!

@pixelfed @dansup

2 issues:

1) text box for replies don't expend when writing a long reply.

2) the text box doesn't allow for spelling corrections like all other apps on iOS. The red wavy line is missing.

⚠️ Update ASAP: Federation Fixes

We just shipped several federation bug fixes that address missing boosts, comments, follows and likes from Mastodon, Hubzilla and others.

Our recent performance refactor was a bit too eager and discarded specific activities, we encourage admins to update ASAP to restore full federation support!

@pixelfed I have an account in #Pixelfed that I follow here at #mastodon. But I changed my Pixelfed #profile pic days ago and in Mastodon it still hasn't #updated. Is there a reason for this?

mattlqx

@pixelfed Were the bugs present in 0.11.4? Is there a target for when you'll tag the next release?

husbandpanda 🐼

@pixelfed @SeaGoatGirl this is why I said I am curious if this impacts the hashtag follows

@pixelfed If you are still offering beta's for an artist Pixelfed account, please sign me up, I’m hanging for it!

✨ Just shipped several federation fixes and improvements!

- Faster federation ingestion
- Fixed masto/pleroma support
- Fixed follow requests
- Fixed comment counts
- Fixed deletion handling

Admins should update ASAP, and users should notice near real-time posts, comments and notifications from federated accounts 😉 #pixelfed

@pixelfed I really wish you would consider letting users hide comments from their posts. This would go a long way toward empowering marginalized communities who are targets of harassment.

@pixelfed

My #pixelfed is updated, now it is not creating any updates for likes, boosts, or comments that come in from Mastodon. :(

I can see the InboxValidator process the notifications from this account successfully in Horizon, but then nothing happens! D:

Snapai :verified_dragon:

@pixelfed

I haven't been able to see my own boosts, likes, or comments on my instance (from my Mastodon acct I'm posting this with), and attempting to send a like and a comment to a picture on pixelfed social ( pixelfed.social/p/ScruffyDux/5 specifically) does not appear on the destination post.

On one of my own posts on my instance, Horizon shows the InboxValidator event fire, with the appropriate data for a like or boost, but that's it, it never appears on the post. Is there supposed to be a LikePipeline event after it, or is that only for within-instance likes?

We're going to push a new #pixelfedApp build out later today with a fix for image aspect ratios!

@pixelfed when are you going to release an app on #GooglePlayStore ?

People shouldn't have to sideload trusted apps. Makes the burden too high for security.

@pixelfed Hello, I keep getting this no matter which server I try to create a new account in.

@pixelfed I think you're doing a great job, though I've really only tested my account so far.
Some of care much less about an "app" than whether the site works, and it's elegant.

@pixelfed@mastodon.social would be great to have moderated registrations. To be able to check if the profile looks spam before granting access.

Markus Peters ✅👀

@pixelfed , why do I always get a 419 error after login on mobile?

@pixelfed been waiting for this a long time, thanks a ton :bear_hugs:

I’m sure I’m not the only one who would be ecstatic to be able to import my Instagram feed into @pixelfed! Hopefully the @NGIZero will pan out.

It's Orlas, from Lisbon 🏳️‍🌈⚣

Thank you, @pixelfed I’m loving the pixelfed and I’m going to love even more.

Mg. Jepyang 🧝‍♀️ :heart_sp_bi:

@pixelfed any clues on when a full release might come? The lack of an App Store app is a huge barrier but I really want to get my friends off IG.

Matt Keith

@pixelfed maybe I misunderstood, but isn’t my account on mastodon a login to the fediverse right, could it be used to log into Pixelfed and not have to sign up w another account?

pixelfed

We are building a mobile app!

➡️ iOS - pixelfed.org/go/testflight-ios

Some of you may remember our tradition of shipping presents on Christmas day, this years present will be pretty epic 😉 #pixelfedApp #android

It's been a while since we've updated our web UI!

Profile followers/following screens will be much easier to navigate on desktop and mobile, follower counts update immediately, and load much faster via redis instead of db ✨

Available soon via PR #3910

Pixelfed Hack Week has been pushed back one month and will start on January 9th, 2023.

We started Hack Week to ship and showcase related side projects we've been working on.

3 of the 5 projects may be useful for other #fediverse projects and users! 🚀 #hackWeek

Julian

@pixelfed thank you for postponing. I suggest to keep focus on releasing the pixelfed Android&iOS App for now. We've been waiting for so long already. Thanks for working on it, I really appreciate your work🤗

Marek Bachmann

@pixelfed Little feedback to the date format from my side: When you use US and CA MM/DD/YYYY format, please do not mix that with dots since literally anybody in the rest of the world will interpret XX.ZZ.YYYY as DD.MM.YYYY.
This is especially problematic in this case, where both interpretations 01.09.2023 and 09.01.2023 are valid dates. <3

pixelfed

Installing Pixelfed should be easy, that's why we created the web installer!

An updated version will be released this week with compatibility for v0.11.4+ ✨

@pixelfed can it be installed in docker ? Any tutorial ?

BBC Micro Bot :mastodon: 🟢

@pixelfed I really want to set up a pixelated instance! Is the installer available yet? Should I try and do it the hard way or wait a little...

Luke

@pixelfed Is this being released? it's now two weeks, plus a year... since the first posts about it?
