I can't see any aurora borealis right now in northern Alberta, Canada

But I do see all your amazing pics, keep em coming!

(Don't worry about me, northern lights/aurora borealis are very common up here, literally nobody I know here really cares about this one because they are so common, but it's super cool to witness them appear in uncommon places and to see all the excitement)

I'm debating reviving my official pixelfed hosting service idea, it's not a regular host service though!

Rather you'd bring a S3, Hetzner, Linode, DigitalOcean API key to our service

We would provision or otherwise manage (1-click updates, automated backups) your instance while allowing you to maintain total control over ownership of the underlying server and data

I'm thinking $5-20 a month for this, and it would allow admins a new level of peace of mind while maintaining total control

Wdyt?

@itbeard It would depend on your budget, since you'd be bringing an API key for the hosting provider, we could provision the smallest compatible server and transition to a larger server if you need more capacity.

I'm in the unique position of being able to optimize performance for this in a way that few (likely no other) providers could match, meaning you could run a bigger server for cheaper than any other provider

@dashrandom I'm not so much interested in providing the hosting service itself due to liabilities and SLA, but that could change in the future.

For now, it's much easier for me to build this service that fits most use cases (established servers) and go from there!

Pixelfed really needs some corporate sponsors to help fund everything we are doing

If you know of potential sponsors that want their website or logo listed on pixelfed.org, https://fedidb.org, and https://fediverse.info please let me know!

It's getting expensive to fund all these out of pocket, and as it stands I may have to limit myself to Pixelfed only if we can't get more financial support.

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.

  • 6 feed nav tabs: (Photo grid, Loops, Collections, Comments, Tagged in Posts and Place Map (a map of posts you've made by location))

  • Loops integration (more info on this soon.jpg)

  • Link verification (when you add a verified website with rel=me, your profile website link will turn green with a badge to signal its verified)

Experimenting with server badges instead of webfinger urls (ex: pixelfed@mastodon.social)

Wdyt?

    @stux Omg I knew I was missing someone, you're such an iconic fediverse celebrity, and we're so lucky to have such dedicated admins (and developers) like you bro 😎

    You really a fedi all star for all the instances and services you provide, don't forget it 💪

    (And if wikipedia needs a source that you are a fediverse celebrity, link this toot, because you belong in the history books hunty!!)

    @pfefferle Omg I knew I was forgetting someone 😅

    You've done such amazing work bringing the largest website platform (Wordpress) to the fediverse and we're so lucky to have you dude, talk about impact, you've made the biggest one ☝️

    I’m working on fixing PeerTube, Hubzilla and Friendica support in @pixelfed

    But wait, there’s one more thing: We’re also adding federation support for Lemmy/Kbin/Mobilizon and other fediverse platforms.

    Maybe you can do everything with a single (pixelfed) fediverse account 😎

    I joined the @cloudron Forum so I can more efficiently resolve bug reports and issues.

    Thanks to @Yehuda for bringing the config cache bug to my attention, I've since responded in that thread and shipped the fix and tagged a new version (v0.12.1)

    I apologize for the inconvenience, and look forward to helping attain perfect Cloudron/docker support going forward 💪

    Super proud of the @pixelfed Curated Onboarding feature

    Want to curate new users rather than have open registrations?

    Not only do we support that, but we built a clever system to request more information from the applicant

    We send them a link that takes them to a form where they can respond, and admins can get notified via email whenever there is a new applicant or response

    But wait, there is more, admins can define reusable email request templates for easy management

    @caranmegil Thanks, it could use a fresh coat of paint though.

    If i have time this summer, I will redesign the site, or maybe make it a community project and get contributions

    @dansup @stux @pixelfed so is this going to be like shorts on YouTube or like TikTok’s??? I wonder if there could be a way to link accounts so your shorts (loops) show up in your Peertube feed.

    dansup,
    @dansup@mastodon.social avatar

    @jakob @stux @pixelfed @Ric I fixed PeerTube and Friendica federation issues, and will be included in the big update later this week 😉
