Due to losing control of our Matrix channel, we are officially moving over to Discord for now.

It's a shame, but we can't properly moderate our Matrix, so we can no longer recommend it.

@deadsuperhero you are right. use what ever you want. no one is forced to join discord. if you don't like it, stay away.

but the issues here were an extremely updated room (v1 vs v11) and no one with admin privileges. that's just not Matrix fault.

I'm honestly considering a paid verification program in Pixelfed to help sustain the project long term.

It would be a centralized list, and would be present in clients, regardless of server.

A blue checkmark would not only help our project financially, but would also provide a trusted visual mark of verification.

Thoughts?

@dansup I would also go with a supporters badge like @signalapp and do appreciate website verification like Mastodon.

@dansup @pixelfed love, love, love it!
I always was annoyed by the hashtag spam cloud at the bottom of (IG) posts and wonder why hashtags weren't handled separately outside the original caption - like EyeEm did it when they were cool.

I have some coworkers and was telling them about how we used to take our car stereo face plates with us when we left the car back in the days when stereos weren't integrated into the dash and you wanted a nice one.

They were very amazed. So I made this meme.

The new @pixelfed app is so much faster, just see for yourself

We're re-writing our app from scratch using the latest tools and best practices to provide the best photo and video sharing experience in the fediverse 🚀

The new app will be rolling out to Android users soon ✨

In response to @potus enabling federation via #Threads the other day, a number of people asked: why can't the White House self-host their own Mastodon server?

Our writer @deadsuperhero dives in with some thoughts on the current hurdles

@hello @deadsuperhero I know you are aware about the efforts of the EU here. In Germany, our data protection officer operates a Mastodon server (https://social.bund.de/directory) on which several accounts of federal authorities are located. Could be interesting to reach out for an interview. Would love to read about their efforts and challenges.

Selbst Ostern hält das deutsche Bürgertum nicht auf (bevor jemand wie auch immer aufschreit, bitte sympathisches Augenzwinkern dazudenken). In Hamburg-Eimsbüttel gibt es ab Februar jeden letzten Sonntag im Monat einen sympathischen Flohmarkt, die Stände sind ausschließlich Anwohnern vorbehalten, das hält die professionellen Abzocker fern, die mittlerweile fast jeden Flohmarkt übernommen haben.

    @dansup @pixelfed love it and have been searching for something like this so make the switch from IG to Pixelfed easier. I would just suggest a renaming as https://later.com exists and does the same thing.

    @pixelfed you cut out the part were they give you 30 days to opt-out via deleting your images. no option b. and no chance to bulk delete stuff.

    ✨Groups by Pixelfed

    Imagine if you could bring Facebook Groups to the fediverse, using your Pixelfed account!

    Pixelfed Groups will be a separate and optional package that admins can install if desired.

    Groups will ship with:

    • Private Groups
    • Mobile App
    • Web UI
    • Client API
    • Federation (w/ Lemmy + others)
    • Extensive mod tools

    But wait, there's more, we're standardizing our Groups implementation so other projects can take advantage of our App and Client API.

    Shipping Soon!

    #Fediverse! I'm searching for a good alternative to Facebook Group (since ages honestly).

    A fedi/opensource solution would be wonderful, but I'm open for freemium/commercial stuff as well.

    I only found tools which aim for extreme large groups and cost several hundred a year (or even month).

    Any expierence?

    It's your content, shouldn't you have more control?

    We're adding even more privacy settings to allow you to have more fine-grained control over your content.

    We're just getting started, our pioneering comment control support will be improved to better enforce federation support, and more!

    @pixelfed On the Instagram side of the internet we soon get unskippable ads and on the cool side we get total control over our data. Really hard to tell which service I like more... #not

    Hej #fediverse!

    I'm looking for a good #alternative to #spotify and would love to hear your thoughts on that.

    My preferred priorities are:
    • Fair payment for their artists
    • An okay-good portfolio
    • Privacy oriented

    and a bunch of other unrealistic things in terms of free, open, secure, fair.

    Anyway, what are you using?

    I can't prevent pixelfed forks, but I will do my best to accommodate feedback and feature requests, and encourage people to take on a more dedicated role within our project!

    We are stronger and better together!

    We really need a project manager type person to help me prioritize, so I can do what I do best and leave the community management to someone more skilled in that.

    Wow, @EyeEm. What a shitty move.

    "If you don't license your images to our market, so that we can earn some money, we will use them to make money on our own."

    So you give me 30 days to delete my 197.8k Followers account?
