As you may already heard Vernissage will became independent platform (backend and web). One of the Fediverse 🌎 part like Mastodon, Writefreely, Pixelfed and others.
For this reason I would like to change current Vernissage for Pixelfed client name. Something that you will like and connect with Pixelfed 😉.
On this occasion, please send me your suggestions on what the new Vernissage for Pixelfed could be called. This is an app created with ❤️, for you, and you can create a part of it.
My plan for Loops was to use your Pixelfed account for auth, and thats all good and all but when it comes to federation, I think this warrants a separate followers collection.
I'm considering either creating a new outbox like collection for Loops that are delivered to all followers, or a separate account with its own outbox and follower collections.
@dansup many of these different social media’s (microblogs, personal photoblogs, personal video shares) have different circle of friends, acquaintances, random people you’d want to share them with.
One way to enable that is separate (external) account names, an other could be what (I think) Google+ did with its circles & what Insta kinda does with “close friends”.
I don’t know the best solution, but just wanted to add my thinking on the topic.
@dimillian yes, plus a way to dive into the conversation.
Right now I can only search manually for the headline of the article to get a few posts who include the headline as text, but thats not a good way of finding the wider conversation.
It's now possible to follow Threads accounts from Mastodon and see what they are posting. You can reply, but the replies aren't being imported into Threads, yet. So, I followed myself to see if it works. It does with a delay between when I post on Threads and when I see it here.
/It is not the user's fault that SpringBoard craps up your launcher with stale app thumbnails going back to the dawn of history./
This is and has always been Apple's fault, and it’s beyond silly to complain that users are doing the wrong thing. They're not.
It's Apple's decision to clutter the launcher, to keep stale thumbnails for months and years, and to tie discarding thumbnails to force-quitting instead of a lighter abstraction. Bad UI
I'm a big proponent of doing fewer if statements and early returns! Doing stuff in your if statements only increases cognitive load when trying to read the code.
public function sendActivationEmail($user) {
if (! $user->isActivated) {
// Send out activation email
}
}
versus.
public function sendActivationEmail($user) {
if ($user->isActivated) {
return;
}
