It appears that Instagram is blocking the #joinpixelfed hashtag

We wonder why 😉

https://pixelfed.org

Instagram explore page with #joinpixelfedorg a non-existent hashtag
Instagram explore page with #pixelfed showing posts as expected, we'd expect either of the previous images for the #joinpixelfed hashtag

Reminder to anyone who said "Meta wouldn't do anything to Fediverse, we should let them join!"

Meta is now automatically muting all posts that mention PixelFed, so it's users can't read about any alternatives to its services.

Just remember, Every time advocacy groups warn about tech/capitalism, believe them. We don't make shit up, we use history of actions and facts to state our reasons to be against it.

If your instance isn't part of @FediPact please urge your admins to join or move to another instance who is.

And if you want proof, ask the general public what Jabber/XMPP was, and then ask what Google how they killed it.

EDIT: Please send support to the creator of the FediPact, @vantablack as she is homeless. This is possible because of them.

EDIT #2: Some peppe are saying it doesn't happen anymore, but since it only happened to competitors to Facebook and only after people noticed, I don't think it was a "bug" that only impacted FOSS replacements, but a feature for Facebook removed. Don't give these Zuckers gaslight and think they remain innocent.

✨ Sneak Peek of Sign-in with Mastodon

We're almost ready to ship this ground breaking feature which vastly improves our onboarding experience for Mastodon users!

Our Wikipedia page is at risk of being deleted because it may not meet notability guidelines.

Can we get some help?

We're not that familiar with Wikipedia or its processes, but we think our project is notable enough for inclusion.

✨ Hello WebP2P!

Admins can now enable WebP2P support for Video!

This allows you to distribute and cache videos among users, reducing the load on the origin and accelerating content delivery!

Big thanks to the pioneering work of @peertube and the funding by @NGIZero

Pixelfed was forked, I joined their discord and gave them a piece of my mind

Forks fucking rule, I'm happy to see this. Open source is crucial to the fediverse, and while we all might not agree on everything, it feels amazing to desire to work with forks

Y'all are the real winners, even more so when devs like me do the unthinkable and bring awareness to forks

⚡ Post Comment Permissions

Pixelfed pioneered the ability to disable comments per post, and delete remote comments.

We can do better, and we are!

Soon you will be able to limit post comments to various segments like:

• Only accounts I follow
• Only mutual follows
• Only local accounts
• Only X accounts

and more!

One more thing, we're publishing a standard for this so other implementations can support this too! #pixelfed #postCommentPermissions

dansup, 4 months ago to Pixelfed

After some careful consideration, I have decided to block threads.net on pixelfed.social and .art by default

However, users will have the ability to unblock the domain

Soon we will be selectively enforcing authorized fetch for accounts with domain blocks so as to provide the best of both worlds.

(I'm also shipping a command for :pixelfed: admins to easily add user domain blocks for all local users)

I'm eager to hear your feedback!

#Pixelfed is a #PHP application, and @dansup says it would be nice to have more maintainers on board.

Pixelfed is adding a Sign In with Mastodon option

atomicpoet, 1 year ago (edited 1 year ago) to fediversenews

Please donate to @dansup!

He's developing three important Fediverse projects:

1. @pixelfed
2. https://fedidb.org
3. https://fediverse.info

All these tools are critical to the future of the Fediverse.

In particular, #Pixelfed will be released on iOS and Android by the end of the month -- which will give people who use #Instagram an easy way to migrate to the Fediverse.

Dan does a lot! Let's show him appreciation and love!

Very exciting times for #pixelfed

An early preview of the redesigned @pixelfed UI

It's about time we stepped out of the "federated instagram" shadow

While it will remain familiar, I'm eager to build on our Collections (think Pinterest), Exif data (flickr, 500px) and Portfolios (deviantart) features

We are not abandoning the social photo sharing aspects of IG

Rather we will be extending beyond them to provide new and exciting ways to share photos + videos, more details soon!

Edit / Update: Thank you for the tremendous outpouring of support. 🙌
I have set up a new home on Mastodon:
@RiversideBryan

I'd be thrilled if you considered following me there as well. 🙏

In any case, be on the lookout for other folks trying to reconnect with their lost friends. Boost their toots to help them reach the full Fediverse while they rebuild. 🫂🥰

Thanks again! 🙌🙌🙌

Sad news 😔

My firefish home died today, all data lost, and won't be restored.

Sadly, my follow list and followers list are also wiped out. 🥺

The good news, #Pixelfed is still running perfectly! 🙌

And this isn't my first rodeo, I've started from zero several times in the Fediverse. 😉

If you could, please boost this to help get the word out. 🔁🔁🔁🙏🙏🙏

I'm no longer able to use @riversidebryan
