Still working on the new Pixelfed app, and am looking forward to sharing a big update this week 👀

Pixelfed Groups will be compatible with Lemmy, Smithereen and other platforms!

Groups will be coming to our official mobile apps later this summer ✨

Pixelfed Groups will bring a whole new dimension and experience, I can't wait to ship this monumental feature!

I want to thank @NGIZero for funding the development of Groups!

It's wild that Groups are finally coming to Pixelfed in the next few days 😎

There are over 8K LoC for Pixelfed Groups atm, and that will likely double in the coming months (mobile apps, federation, etc...)

It's the most complex feature we've ever shipped, and we've pioneered several mod and safety tools to enable the best experience across Pixelfed instances

Rest assured, I will show the fediverse how it's done 💅

Just finished adding like, reply, and report features to comments in the new Pixelfed app!

I’m proud of the progress I’m making, just a few lil things to wrap up before it’s ready for the beta release 😁

(Then I can get back to Groups, Loops, PubKit and Sup)

Reports are now finished in the new @pixelfed mobile app!

This was one of those small but essential todo items.

You may be surprised to know that Apple and Google require the ability to report user generated content if you have user generated content in your app

There are also other requirements, like hiding adult content by default and allowing users to block other users on social network apps.

Looking forward to shipping the app, gosh it's like so close!!!

Not sure why safari suddenly renders Mastodon advanced mode UI so poorly, I just accidentally boosted a post when tapping on the favourite button

I know this isn't a Mastodon bug because it's fine on Chrome and Firefox

shakes fist at Safari

The new Pixelfed mobile app will preserve media aspect ratios, no need to tap to view the full image as photos will be rendered to preserve native aspect ratios😎

Fixed Pixelfed federation with Friendica*, and will be working on PeerTube next!

One of the challenging aspects of building a federated mobile app is parsing post captions and being able to render them properly

See, when you make a post with mentions or hashtags, mastodon converts it to HTML and mobile apps have to deconstruct that HTML to be able to render mentions, hashtags and links properly

We could just render the HTML, but when you would tap on a hashtag or mention, it would open the browser instead of in-app

Indices and entity maps ftw, thanks backend!

Experimenting with a new Network feed of Pixelfed only accounts, it’s so much better 👀

Saw someone request the ability to block hashtags so I'll be building that out tonight!

Oh man, the new Pixelfed app keeps getting better and better!

I’m now finishing up Push Notifications support, which is the most requested feature besides share intents (which I shipped earlier tonight)

Not only is it fast, lightweight and open source, but also packed with many long overdue features like Push Notifications 😎

It’s everything you wanted, plus more ✨

I just want to educate y'all about this specific "scary" warning (that you may see in the Pixelfed app)

Apple Bonjour is a feature that enables seamless connection between your Apple devices

You can safely tap "Don't Allow" without any impact, however, that may limit Handoff support and other Apple features we're planning to implement.

Regardless, you can audit our app code yourself to verify we aren't doing anything sketchy

I'm so happy to see Gargron living his best life, he's done so freakin' much for the fediverse

It's so heartwarming to see him travel around the world with his wifey, that iconic Mastodon plushie (omg I want one), and his photography from all those places

He totes deserves all this success and more, and I look forward to the day that we can meet in person, he is my hero

I have a ton of small things to finish before I can ship the new Pixelfed app, that being said I do want to get it in your hands ASAP

I’m planning to release an alpha build APK this weekend (some things may not fully work yet, but you will have a chance to see the huge improvements and help provide feedback)

I’m not an expert when it comes to encryption by any means, but from my work on Sup and my knowledge of the Signal protocol, I’m confident that the lies Elon and Telegram are spreading are unfounded.

You can review the Signal protocol to see for yourself, like they (Elon and them) would be pointing to smoking gun vulnerable code if they had any real dirt, but I’ve yet to see any 😉

I appreciate your patience regarding the @pixelfed, @loops and @supapp apps

I'm now almost finished re-writing the main Pixelfed app from scratch, using best practices, and in the open!

> git clone https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed-rn

The new apps will be everything you expected, and more 😎
