Reporting problematic posts or comments should be easy

And having the ability to hide specific comments on your own post is an essential safety feature

This is why we're making reports easier, and working on federated comment controls

After all, you deserve more control over your posts and comment sections, and we're going to show you how it can be done ✨

We're aware of some issues in our Account Migration feature that prevents a proper migration.

We're working on a fix, and will update you when we ship the fix!

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)

We have created a new Matrix channel that we can properly moderate!

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 think I've missed a setting somewhere, is there a place in the current Android App to show the full image in-feed (without clicking), or is that coming down the line in the future? 🤔

Noticed today that some of the tight frames, or especially tall/long shots, get 'cropped' in the feed-view - although are still fully intact if you click on them .

If this is necessary for app limitations, could we have an icon display in the corner as an indicator to "click for full view" ?

Something I should add to the GitHub?

Screengrab of same post viewed in timeline with web ui, and full image visible in timeline view
Screengrab if tall/vertical post with top and bottom missing in timeline view, but fully intact if clicked on.
Screengrab of same vertical/tall photo after clicking on it to view full image.

Does any ActivityPub software support Like / Dislike with startTime/endTime?

(I'm thinking about emoji reactions to livestreams, audio, and video content)

We are working on a new feature to self-label media as AI generated

In addition, we're building this into feeds and discovery so you can opt-out of AI generated media posts with a single click!

We do honour requests from remote servers to delete accounts, but sometimes it does not happen as expected.

So we're building a feature to automate this process so anyone can easily purge their old deleted account from any Pixelfed instance ✨

Due to losing control of our Matrix channel, we are officially moving over to Discord for now.

It's a shame, but we can't properly moderate our Matrix, so we can no longer recommend it.

We just shipped a minor change that limits new accounts ability to send DMs until the account is older than 72 hours

This is in response to reports of DM spam originating from pixelfed.social

Okay, so, remember how I had some big news? Well, I didn't get to announce it yesterday as I was unwell (I've been unwell most of the month and could really do with extra financial support right now!)

The big news is that my FIRES project has been granted funding by NLNet (@NGIZero)

What is FIRES? It's a project I've been slowly working since September last year, and provides a server for maintaining and distributing moderation advisories and recommendations.

You might be surprised to know that the official @pixelfed app uses several "internal" services

Here are a few examples:

• https://recovery.pixelfed.org is used to help users remember their instance

• https://fedidb.org is used for auth and registration

• https://beagle.pixelfed.net is used for the Discovery tab, allowing the smallest or newest instance to discover new content and people

• https://pixelfed.org for our homemade Android updater

• more!

We love building and innovating 🚀 ✨ 😎

@pixelfed my entire home feed consists of only two posts now? I’m following 20 people and have been registered since 2018

FediTips , 1 month ago to Random stuff

If you're an ordinary Mastodon user, the "block domain" option does not block servers, it just mutes them. It hides their posts from you, but does not hide your posts from them.

Only server admins can do actual blocks through defederation, preferably on a server that has activated "authorized fetch".

For example, if you want to avoid threads.net, you need to join a server that has defederated threads.net. (You can find nice servers that block threads.net at https://fedi.garden)
