The network feed code in the new Pixelfed app is only 56* lines of code

Really happy with the refactor, it's much cleaner code, not to mention the app is much faster ๐Ÿš€

@Ninerjoshua oh like the AI kendrick used a few years ago??

tbh tho man, the real winners are us, the fans. This is a historic moment, we needed this

The new @pixelfed app is so much faster, just see for yourself

We're re-writing our app from scratch using the latest tools and best practices to provide the best photo and video sharing experience in the fediverse ๐Ÿš€

The new app will be rolling out to Android users soon โœจ

@yuraautsayder Yeah this is because its tied to my provisioning profile, you need to change it to your own in Xcode

@kyva @pixelfed I'm in the process of redesigning the app so we have a chance to get it right this time.

Perhaps you can help design a rough mockup for the flow you'd like to see? I will create a GH issue for this after work.

Working on the @pixelfed app refactor and omg itโ€™s so much faster and responsive on both Android and iOS

It even supports offline mode, and many more optimizations!

I canโ€™t wait to ship this, it hurts to see such negative feedback wrt the current app (though I agree it sucks on Android) and I canโ€™t wait to blow your minds with this new version ๐Ÿ˜Ž

PS: the new app is open source, follow along at https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed-rn

@dansup any idea why hashtag-following works / doesnโ€™t work on varying instances using the same software version? (e.g. works on pixelfed social, doesnโ€™t work on gram social)

is it a feature / toggle that admins have to enable?

@briiian yes

Ruh roh, the hashtag police are out, hide yo hashtags!!

While Pixelfed has a max hashtag limit of 60 per post, a majority of posts contain less than half that

I checked the reported account and the hashtags they use are related, and the account has thousands of (legit) followers so who am I to play hashtag god??

If you get offended by the # or context of hashtags, maybe they aren't the problem ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Hands down the best hosting provider for devs and fedi admins

@grishka The VPS (Droplets) they offer and the other services are priced accordingly.

I've never had any issues hosting pixelfed.social for over 6 years on the same droplet, that level of service/platform stability does come with a premium.

I'd be hesitant to use a service hosted by the cheapest provider ๐Ÿ˜‰

I'm a bit frustrated with Android at the moment, I've spent hours tonight trying to upgrade the Pixelfed app to the latest RN version (and the tons of deps we use)

I'm nearly there, I can feel it... ๐Ÿ˜…

The survey is over. I like your choice very much ๐Ÿคฉ. Now I have to think everything over again and will let you know about the changes soon. Thank you very much โ˜บ๏ธ. https://mastodon.social/@vernissage/112324530712549355

@vernissage Nice work! I'm finishing Push Notifications in Pixelfed btw, we can chat if you need any help implementing them!

Stop platform hate, create or collaborate

The isn't perfect, it's the best solution we have

You can make a difference, simply by participating in a project/platform and suggesting ideas or reporting bugs

You don't need to know how to code to make this place better, but if you want to make a bigger impact, it does help

We need to stop shitting on fedi platforms like Mastodon and see the fediverse as the competitor to centralized social platforms

Between Pixelfed, Groups, Loops, PubKit and Sup, I'm struggling to meet my self-imposed deadlines to a degree that I'm delaying several journalist interviews

I was planning on working on Loops tonight, however I noticed our Pixelfed TestFlight build expires in 13 days so I had to jump back to the Pixelfed app, and now I'm working on Push Notification support

It's not a big deal really tho, I work better under pressure and love these challenges

Press: Pls wait a min, til we're ready to shine โœจ

@deadsuperhero The energy required to stop this object travelling at this velocity is not easily obtained ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I'm taking care of myself, I just wish I could work full time on this, and get funding for a team (or atleast me full time)

I appreciate the concern tho bro, โค๏ธ

I'm not worried about burning out, I'm worried about overpromising and under delivering, but really, it's nothing new lmao

Aim for the stars, shoot towards tomorrow ๐Ÿš€

Working on @pixelfed app push notifications!

Admins: We're working on the Beacon service that will proxy Push notifications, make sure you set a public contact email so we can message you when it's ready for your instance!

Service: https://beacon.pixelfed.net

It's rare to see such popular @pixelfed posts, you love to see it!

I'm working on some big improvements that will make Pixelfed easier to use, and with near feature parity with Mastodon!

Push Notifications, Share Intents and more will be shipping to our official app very soon ๐Ÿš€
