@pixelfed β¨ Cleaner, leaner and more compact! Comments are now complete in our app and we can move on to the few remaining tasks! Special thanks to our team member @trwnh for redesigning this crucial component, they are also working on some pretty exciting features and we can't wait to share more details! #pixelfed #pixelfedApp β¨ Less clutter, more options We refactored the post menu in our app based on your feedback! Community consensus is crucial to our decision making process, keep the comments coming! #pixelfedApp @pixelfed @dansup I started supporting you on patreon since it feels right what you are doing. Still some questions: You are trying something real big - what is keeping form getting more people involved in your team? How will you prevent other problems instagram had in its beginnings, like shown here https://youtu.be/1exiUZncNnA We asked for your feedback about muting & blocking accounts from the post menu in our app. You made it clear that we need to support these actions in the post menu, and we think we did it in a way that doesn't clutter the menu. Feedback greatly appreciated, we listen!

@pixelfed First of all: I'm new to pixelfed (/Pixeldroid App) but... I really love it! π Great work! π But, there is one thing: For me it would be very important to get the possibility to "mute" posts from other networks... I use pixelfed for search/post photography related stuff. To me it's a little bit boring to see, for example, mastodon posts. Because... for that, I have my mastodon account. But it's only my opinion... ;-)

@pixelfed Awesome initiative. Do you really mean screen reader accessibility here? For me as a screen reader user sharing, interpreting or otherwise working with images is difficult if not impossible, so I am curious what is achievable, what does pixelfed do except of sharing images and similar. Has anyone requested accessibility related improvements? Community Guidelines are important and can differ between instances. Our app has that covered, and we'll link to them in the appropriate context like when a user reports a post with the reason "I just don't like this". This is just the tip of our app safety features, we look forward to sharing more in the coming days! #pixelfed

@pixelfed i think if server rules are defined then the generic/predefined categories aren't necessary basically the report reason should take you directly to the server rule list and have one additional option at the end "it's something else", with checkboxes @pixelfed The app looks amazing. Please take all the time you need developing it. I think many newcomers will judge Pixelfed based on their experience with the mobile app, so it's important to focus on appealingness and useful features.

Progress + Placeholders + Performance Blank screens are boring, so we added progress indicators while media is loading and a blur hash background for immediate context. What a difference, just look at the before and after screenshots! #pixelfed #pixelfedApp @pixelfed will this also work for accounts you don't follow yet? Missing pictures is in my opinion the most annoying thing about federation. Also not seeing likes and reshares from other instances.

@pixelfed Looks great! I think the contrast of the pagination at the right top could be improved. Does it also fade out after a few seconds of no touch gestures? Also the Public switch feels a little bit too big. The dropdowm icon next to it could be a bit darker. Can't wait to try it out! @pixelfed Another productive evening, here's a few highlights: β¨ Profile UI We're pausing new feature development to focus on shipping this app ASAP! #pixelfed #pixelfedApp
