I've really enjoyed working on new features for @moshidon lately, so here's another one. Polls now animate to show their options when you click "Show Results".
Way too much time was spent just watching and enjoying the animation.
A new fediverse iOS app called fedicat @technicat (TestFlight) has a feature I’m calling “bloosts” which is a boost and a like in one button. I love it.
Now I want a “bloostmark” that boosts, likes and bookmaks a post at the same time. 😅
New app update: a few fixes and small improvements plus, finally, image descriptions, including text recognition!
I'll add automatic AI image captioning if this post gets enough traction.
(I'll probably add it anyways so don't feel obligated to boost 😆). #app#mastodonapp
If you are connected to firewalled wifi and attempt to post in the Mastodon app you do not get an error. Your post is eaten. Deleted forever.
I wrote this amazing post and it’s gone. This has happened before. Other apps say “cannot post” when firewalled. Seems like bug.
(please don’t tell me to use a different app I have four apps each with their own issues- the purpose of this post is to check if it’s fair to call it a bug)
New update: the notifications screen now has a condensed design! Instead of one notification item for each individual favourite, boost, and reply, now you can see all of them in a succinct UI. Try it with your next popular post! #mastodonapp#android#app
#Spoutible is an alternative social media platform, and it’s adding an #AI assistant named “Spouty” that will be able to assist with basic support questions, as well as respond to commands like “Remove any followed accounts if they haven’t spouted in over 6 months.” Or “Follow the top 15 accounts in the tech industry.”
Hi, hello! I'm looking for a new #Mastodon client for iOS and would like to know which one you use and could recommend. Free is nice of course, but I'm willing to spend a little money if it's a really nice app. :owi:
🎉 Celebrating one year since my first contribution to @moshidon! Over the past 12 months, I've added dozens of features and improvements, in 66 pull requests and 291 commits (porting some of them over to @megalodon in "only" 39 pull requests). In total, I added ~17k lines of code. Looking forward to another year.
This week we're testing a new tool called the Mastodon Scheduler to automate our posts. It's self-hosted, doesn't expose itself to the internet, and runs as a background service so you never have to worry about keeping an app open.
If you tried @mammoth previously, I'd recommend taking another look today as version 2.0 is released. It feels like it has been rebuilt from the ground up. There are some new interesting features, like the Smart Lists that are curated by people, not algorithms. Also - it's finally going open source tomorrow!
