sup. is an open source encrypted fediverse instant messenger, similar to whatsapp, made by pixelfed.

The beta will be launching later this month, and btw most fediverse accounts will work, not just Pixelfed 😉

✨ Better onboarding

Pretty soon you'll be able to sign up with your Mastodon account, or use it to sign in on @pixelfed

Calckey and other platforms will launch later!

Decided I'm going to go ahead with my Kbin mobile app.

Yeah I know i have a lot on the go, but I use Apollo daily, and want a solid Apollo like experience for Kbin.

I'm willing to hand over the project to Kbin if they want, and would love to work closely with the developer on this if possible.

Will be starting this next week, after my camping trip! It will be open source from the start, and contributors will be gladly welcomed! #kbin

Edit: As mentioned below, it appears to be a bug, not intentional!

Threads hiding @pixelfed mentions, not a good look Meta 🙄

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, most of y’all don’t know what it’s like to be a fediverse developer of a popular project and have to deal with all the negative feedback and personal attacks

Let’s be nicer to the devs of the fediverse who have been doing this mostly unpaid for the greater good, all I ask is for basic respect!

Anfora, Prismo, Firefish and dozens of other projects have been abandoned by their devs, and I’d bet the fediverse mentality towards devs is part of the reason

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

💅 Kudos to #mastoAdmins

Almost 50% of active Mastodon servers are running v4.2.5 which fixes a critical bug!

v4.2.5 was released only 19 hours ago

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!

Thanks to everyone who reached out, fediDB.org and fediverse.info will remain online going forward.

I'm not going anywhere either, though I think I need a break from the fediverse for a few days.

Kbam for Kbin is coming along!

I suggest you follow @hariette and her app #artemis for now

She is building an amazing Kbin app inspired by Apollo which is iconic, my app Kbam will be a bit different as I don't want to duplicate her efforts

Fediverse app developers like her are often underappreciated, please let her know how much you appreciate the efforts of a Kbin app ❤️

Happy 5th birthday @pixelfed! 🥳

Instagram blocked the #joinPixelfed hashtag not long ago, and Twitter too.

Don't forget that 😉

I've said it countless times before, if you're working on an #activityPub project and would like more visibility, DM me!

I know how lucky I was, and how hard it is to get noticed now, we all started from nothing and I get that

People over profits is what makes the #fediverse so special ❤️

dansup, 7 months ago to Pixelfed

I'm in the process of submitting the @pixelfed app to the App Store, and next month I'll be submitting our Android app to the Google Play Store!

Very exciting times for #pixelfed

Meta aka Instagram is working on a Twitter competitor that is rumored to be ActivityPub compatible.

If you run a fediverse instance (Mastodon, Pixelfed, Calckey and others), would you ban a Meta instance?

Boosts appreciated 👍 #fediverse #barcelona #activityPub #meta

Fedidb.org and fediverse.info will be shut down in a month

Edit: They will remain online and will not be shut down!

https://loops.video is a very promising ActivityPub platform for short form video, and could use your financial support to help fund and sustain this initiative!

Donations can be made via @pixelfed

Let’s build a new TikTok that’s federated and better for humanity! Boosts appreciated!

Instagram Import and Account Migration isn't that far away either!

• Import your IG account
• Migrate your account between Pixelfed instances
• Migrate your Mastodon, Pleroma, Misskey accounts to Pixelfed

Special thanks to @NGIZero for funding Account Migrations in @pixelfed

6 years ago today I started writing the first lines of code for Pixelfed!

Happy birthday @pixelfed 🥳

dansup, 1 month ago to fediverse

If there are any other #fediverse developers working on a TikTok like platform for the fediverse:

Maybe we can join forces and work together with Loops, and if not, lets keep in touch so we can work on #activitypub compatibility?

I'm already working closely with @stux on #Goldfish, which is shaping up to be a serious fedi TikTok contender!

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!

You gotta watch this and see how easy Sign-in with Mastodon really is!

This will be huge for @pixelfed onboarding, thanks to @Mastodon ❤️

✨ KBAM 💥

This is going to get interesting!

I believe that https://fediDB.org is becoming a valuable resource to the fediverse, and it's grown beyond me and my project

I'd like to steward it for another year, and then pass it on to a trustworthy organization, and allow it to evolve without my influence or bias towards Pixelfed!

https://fediverse.info too, and the activitypub.social/io domains I own, I pledge these to the fediverse to be used for the good of humanity ❤️

Anyone building a federated Stack Overflow?
