Auf #flickr hatten wir dafür die Gruppe „Vertical Rises“. Hach damals. Mein Steckenpferd war die „subjektive Fotografie“ der 50er Jahre um Otto Steiner und das mag ich immer noch. Flickr fehlt mir immer noch sehr viel mehr als Twitter, auch weil es keinen brauchbaren Ersatz in Bezug auf die Community angeht.
Most forks fail because you need a core developer to maintain the project
There are dozens of misskey forks, and most of them fail after a few months or a year (calckey ->firefish)
You can't just fork something and live off hopes and dreams
This is why I believe it's in my best interest as the core maintainer of Pixelfed to work with our community as much as possible to eliminate the need for a fork
Such a vibe when you reach this, I love it, fuck egos, we all equals, lets goooo 🚀
While working on the Pixelfed mobile app refactor, I found the issue causing “broken” or missing comments, it’s not a federation bug, but rather a hardcoded limit of 20 comments (on the MastoAPI)
Working on the fix, and a new pixelfed API for better comment pagination.
Although #mastodon is the elephant in the room (see what I did there), the #fediverse is way more than just that. I want to look at other ways to engage with the wider Fediverse, just for fun and my own education. I have a #pixelfed account that I never use but maybe I'll move all my image posting to it and just repost it here, etc. Still mulling.
No matter, how you connect to the Fediverse, be if, for example, Misskey, Sharkey, Ice Shrimp, Mastodon, PeerTube, Pixelfed, Kbin, or by other means, the Fediverse instance you're using cost money. In the real world, web hosting, bandwidth, and storage space cost, money. And the more members who use and join your Fediverse instance (server), the more resources and the most it cost.
I earned by badge, by reaching out to my administrator, and helping them by donating. And while if it was not required to make a donation or regular contribution, I like using the Fediverse. It is ad-free and decentralized, meaning, someone like Elon Musk, cannot change things for everyone, everywhere, solely on their latest mood swing. So I made the choice to help fund my corner of the collective social media network, known as the Fediverse.
This noob is testing the interconnectivity of the #Fediverse:
The word out there on the Fediverse make it seem as if all the different tools (Mastdn/P-tube/Lemmy/etc.) can interact with one another. But this is not the case, as some work both ways, whilst others only one way, or at all.
Testing the Fediverse's interconnectivity between apps and protocols
One thing that would have been nice to know as a newbie on the Fediverse:...
