Is there a lightweight #ActivityPub server in existence that supports the #Pixelfed API, akin to how snac2 by @grunfink supports Mastodon API? I'd like to use Pixelfed clients but avoid Pixelfed itself. #askfedi

I spent 7 years working on Pixelfed almost every day, and in the past 18 months we've went from 200k users to over 1 million!
Some could argue the break after FediCon to build Loops was a mistake, but the fediverse needed a solid short video platform and I didn't want to force that on Pixelfed.
Now this summer belongs to Pixelfed.
Stay tuned, I want to improve the web and mobile apps for the next million or ten million new Pixelfed members 🚀

Wir würden uns freuen, wenn wir hier eine eigene Community entwickeln könnten.
Dabei wäre es natürlich sehr hilfreich, wenn einflussreiche Stimmen wie Sie und Ihre Kollegin Jessica Flint den vorhandenen Account bei #Mastodon aktiv nutzen oder auch welche bei #peertube, #Friendica und/oder #pixelfed anlegen und bespielen würden.
Vielleicht könnte man sogar eine eigene Instanz einrichten und #BigTech sowie der #Fossillobby und den #FakeNews nicht nur mit dem #Recht, sondern auch mit der Schaffung besserer Strukturen entgegentreten! Schaffen wir Relevanz für ein unabhängiges #Socialmedia und ein freies #Internet

Does anyone use PixelDroid or Pixelix? They claim to be apps but appear to be little more than browser skins. What am I missing? 🤔

I can't wait to be able to make at the same point the decision for Pixelfed, but with everything I want to do there, it's maybe better using Mastodon for now.
3/3
I already had the new account registered at my own pixelfed instance, because I thought it would be cool having them on my instance.
But before going public with it, I thought about it again and again.
Then I was putting my own ego aside, because I had to admit, that it's more important for them, having a software running which has less bugs and where everything works as expected.
So I deleted their account on my own instance and registered a #mastodon account.
2/3
I'm owning a Pixelfed instance, and pay every month some money for it.
I was voluntering to run a #Fediverse account for a German festival.
But I deceided to NOT USE my #Pixelfed instance for them, so I registered a #Mastodon account.
Even I still think, Pixelfed can at one point become a real cool thing, I decided myself it's better for the festival to not use Pixelfed, but a more bug free Fediverse software.
Doing this, felt really bad, but it was the right decison for the Festival.

I started building @pixelfed in April 2018, just weeks after the ActivityPub spec was published.
I delayed federation support in light of some fediverse meta that happened in the summer of 2018, and someone even made a doespixelfedfederateyet website that said "No." until Dec 2018.
People joked about Pixelfed a lot, then the vibe changed when I shipped ephemeral Stories using LitePub + Bearcaps in 2019.
8 years later, we're still here and thriving!

How many records does a collector need?
Majority of people have an eclectic music taste but some collect specific artists or a specific music genre.
The question is... If you collect a artist or band, will you collect everything from them or you choose your favorite records to have?

This is why people should span out across the Fediverse.
We have this decentralized network, but if most people are in the same place you can take most of it out in one move. Clustering on one large site makes it the weakest link.

Has dev on #pixelfed stalled? Feels like nothing has changed or improved over the last few years 🤔
Since there is no revoking sessions in Pixelfed, and changing password doesn't log you out of any sessions, be careful with your Pixelfed credentials.
If you use Pixelfed and your account gets hacked, you can't do anything. Perhaps contacting Dansup is the only option.

Hi @dansup !
I’d like to ask whether there are any plans (not necessarily in the short term, just whether it’s on the roadmap at all) to support multi-account usage in the #Pixelfed mobile app?
I’m asking because in my previous post (in Hungarian), I wrote about migrating our private Pixelfed instance—which the two of us use—from my NAS to my server. I also mentioned that if native multi-account support becomes available on mobile someday, I’d consider launching my own public Pixelfed instance as well. At the moment, constantly logging in and out would be quite inconvenient for me.
Looking forward to your reply!
Thank you!
@kiko @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social @dansup@mastodon.social
Hi ! Thanks for your answer.
Well that's why I tried to go to my profile > settings > application where I did not find any previous token nor was I able to create a new one....
I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but cannot find what. (Error messages are not very informative neither from the API nor the UI. And documentation is still incomplete)
@kiko @pixelfed @dansup@pixelfed.social @dansup@mastodon.social
Hello,
Currently experiencing the same issue.
* API calls that used to work now return error: unauthenticated
* Token creation from the webapp return Whoops! Something went wrong!
How was this resolved for you last time ?
Thx
@pixelfed I know a new version is being developed at the moment. Just wanna point out that push notifications seem to have issues. I get a notification if someone on another platform leaves a comment, but for comments/replies on pixelfed I get nothing. I also wish reblogs/boosts will work in the new version. #pixelfed @dansup
and @PixelfedGlitch is not keeping up to date
has anyone forked Pixelfed in a way that there is real community development? #pixelfed
deeply honest question for #pixelfed admins or wannabe admins - how many of you actually get a fully functional instance working? how on earth have you managed to do so?
Hey everyone!
Quick question for all the Pixelix users, where did you get the app from?
We would love to understand our community better.

what surprises me about the #fediverse is the diversity of ages. am turning 60 and there’s A LOT of folks here 10-20 years older.
so if #Mastodon #Lemmy #Pixelfed aren't just scripty kids but also grandparents, who’s here?
people finding their communities without shitty techbro algorithms.
the fediverse is a new era of #Luddites. we are not here to serve the interests of capitalists. we’re here for the #anarchy of community; because celebrating our Humanity is punk as fuck.

Dear Fedi friends, Next week I have the honor of doing a presentation advocating for the Fediverse in a really prestigious venue (I can't share more now, but I will after it takes place). I'm currently working on slides and I would love to hear testimonies from YOU. Why the Fediverse is so special to you in contrast to Big Tech platforms (bonus points if you speak French & can reply en français). I'll share a selection of your testimonies in my slideshow presentation. Merci beaucoup ❤️

Mastodon and Pixelfed are both good options for sharing photos.
NativeBase -> Tamagui -> twrnc
Tailwind has the best DX, bringing this to react-native has made UI dev so much better.
Pixelfed is now on its 3rd major UI rewrite, and I'm borrowing a lot of experience from my twrnc usage on the new Loops app 😎
#reactNative #nativeBase #tamagui #twrnc #pixelfed #pixeldev
@doeidag Ondertussen al jaren lang #Linux gebruiker, maar onlangs #Instagram en #WhatsApp vaarwel gezegd en gebruik nu #mastodon #pixelfed en #signal. Als webbrowser gebruik ik #Firefox en #Brave en als zoekmachine #DuckDuckGo en #Qwant.
Navigeren doe ik met #organicmaps.
Ik gebruik nog een #Android telefoon zonder Google account.
Maybe someone who knows more about #federation might be able to help me here: So my single-user #Pixelfed instance is sitting on a 20GB PSQL database after just one year. Is there any way to make this more viable in the long term, like getting rid of old post info I got like 1 year ago from other servers? Or any other way to improve the storage efficiency here? It just feels weird that the database is using up more storage at this point then the image files saved on this instance…
When I built the Pixelfed frontend, I thought bootstrap was the only way and wasn't very skilled with javascript.
Fast forward to 2026 and I've shipped half a dozen SPA's across the fediverse, including https://joinloops.org, https://fedidb.com, https://fediverse.info and https://loops.video
And 3 react-native mobile apps.
Now I am building a whole new Pixelfed frontend from scratch, and I couldn't be happier.
It's about time for
to shine ✨
loops.video
Loops.video
The flagship Loops server, a new creative community for sharing videos and going viral.
If you've ever used Pinterest and wanted a federated version, I have great news!
I'm refactoring Pixelfed Collections, with the ability to add items other than your own posts, like any url or remote post.
Public or private collections with less limitations and much easier to use.
Imagine being able to share media or urls to the Pixelfed app, and selecting which collection to add it to, or create a new one.
You're going to love this 🔥

Redesigning and refactoring a production website is one thing, but when it comes to open platforms that federate, with popular APIs consumed by dozens of clients and prioritizes uptime for half a million users, it can get tricky.
You know I love a good challenge, and I did this a year ago with Loops.
Now it's Pixelfeds turn.
I'm building a fresh new interface and our own API, then I'll focus on fixing federation, and then I'll redesign our mobile app.
One step at a time ✨
I spent the last few hours removing the existing frontend, adding the new scaffolding (partially based on Loops) and creating reusable components based on our new design system to keep everything consistent.
Performance has improved noticeably by removing middleware that checked 2FA and valid email on every request, as we now handle that during authentication.
Can't wait to ship this ASAP, and for the Loops fam, I'll be back 😎
I'm having a lot of fun working on the new Pixelfed web redesign.
Not only is it so much prettier and cleaner, but it's also so much faster and responsive.
Remember Loops webUI in 2024 and how much better it is now?
Yeah, it's like that, but even better.
I'm not going to tease screenshots, I'd rather ship this ASAP so you can see yourself.

I'm not sure on which side the error is, but I'm not able to follow from my Pixelfed account my Holos account.
In the Pixelfed app I don't see a follow button, in the browser I can click many times, number goes up, but after a reload it's 0.
@dansup and Tom (@HolosSocial ) I'm not sure where the error is. Following from Mastodon was possible...

I'm barely getting any activity on my timeline. I hardly don't see any posts from the people I follow, just one or two. 😪 I have to actively go to accounts to see if there are any new posts. Why, how is that possible? The hashtags I follow aren't showing up on my timeline either. What can I do to fix this? Is it a specific server-problem? Or is it a #Pixelfed problem?
I find this really annoying. Are there other people this is happening to?
So sorry, for not responding to your post, but this is the reason. 😔

Howdy @dansup@mastodon.social @dansup@pixelfed.social,
Since several days, I can't follow @riversidebryan@social.lol anymore... I can see him/his posts from other accounts, but not from my Pixelfed.social one.
Did he/his instance get blocked??
I know many people followed @RiversideBryan@pixelfed.social, but he switched back to Mastodon, and I would like to be able to keep following him and his pictures.
Please let me/us know why pixelfed.social isn't showing the social.lol account... Thanks in advance!
if anyone wants to join our newly-deployed pixelfed-glitch instance, @yawnbox has created an invite link (that still has 19 uses!):
this might not necessarily be the best visual-social-media software
but we're still determined to give building a community around it a try ^^

Wieso sollte ich eYou als Sozialem Netzwerk beitreten?
Ich bin doch schon im Fediverse!
Hier kann ich mit allen Plattformen die die benutzten Protokolle unterstützen interagieren.
Wie #Mastodon #pixelfed #peertube #friendica #hubzilla und andere.
Scheint eine neue Masche zu sein, hier Werbung für angeblich neue soziale Medien zu machen.
Will man nur Geld von vermeintlichen Investoren? Oder die Nutzer des #Fediverse für dumm verkaufen?
@notwhatwethink Really trying to get people off of these systems by adopting #ElementMatrix #fediverse #lemmy #pixelfed #startmail and such. WhatsApp is so embedded in this part of the world, it can be hard for people to download another app. Do it anyway. You do not ever have to use the #oligarch #enshittified version of the internet. We can all just stop going to the ai websites, apps and oligarch magapedo bro tech. I mean right? We can do better. #NOLIGARCHY #resist
Instagram, Feelings
@lontrachen @leah ich benenne meine Nextcloud-Inbox (ein Nur-Upload-Ordner, Briefkasten) gegenüber anderen meist "das ist meine Dropbox." gab noch nie Rückfragen. Daten kommen immer an.
Ob sowas auch mit "das ist MEIN Insta" und nem qr-code oder link funktioniert!? Zumindest manchmal!??

I hadn't even realized how much I missed a good old photo feed until I visited pixelfed. It's like stepping out into nature where the peace in the air takes away the pain you didn't know you had.

Picture of 3 stickers set on a black and wooden surface framed with decorative plants and stones. The three stickers each represent a different dinosaur. The top one is a triceratops that seems to be made of stone carved with Celtic designs. Its horns, beak, and tail tips are bone-coloured. On its legs, moss is slowly growing. The middle one is a Terra-cota coloured diplodocus munching on a leaf. Geometric white patterns, similar to those painted on terra cota vases, decorate its four legs, and two stripes decorate its neck. The rounded spikes on its head and back are white. The last dinosaur is a dark brown Parasaurolophus with folk-like floral patterns painted on its tail, back and legs.

The middle one is a Terra-cota coloured diplodocus munching on a leaf. Geometric white patterns, similar to those painted on terra cota vases, decorate its four legs, and two stripes decorate its neck. The rounded spikes on its head and back are white. The last dinosaur is a dark brown Parasaurolophus with folk-like floral patterns painted on its tail, back and legs.
The new @pixelfed web design I've been working on is so much better in every way.
Faster, cleaner and feature packed is one way to describe it.
With way better video support thanks to Loops, we think you will appreciate all the improvements, and understand why we took our time, until it was perfect.
Shipping soon! 🚀

Captured on a Super 8 film camera from the 1960s, and such a nostalgic look for the Pacific Northwest that I just love. Enjoi! 🎥

A vertical poster displays a beach-at-sunset backdrop with giant rock formations in the distant ocean, as a man uses a metal detector on the rocky ground and large lettering over the entire poster that reads, "PORTLAND ON FILM | oceanside," and a film festival laurel that reads, "OFFICIAL SELECTION | Oregon Coast Film Festival 2026."
Good morning Fedi friends!
Monday mornings mean: my weekly ritual of manually backing up my #YunoHost installation (my VPS does automatic daily backups of the whole VPS, but I say: better safe than sorry).
This latest backup is pretty big, because of my increased use of #NextCloud. So in reverse order, from biggest to smallest we have:
1) #GoToSocial : 5.8 GB
2) #PeerTube : 4.3 GB
3) #NextCloud: 3.7 GB
4) #Pixelfed : 1.6 GB
5) #LinkStack : 92 MB
6) #Fail2Ban : 362kb
Happy #selfhosting everyone! And in case you missed it, my self-hosting guide for newbies via YunoHost is available here: https://blog.elenarossini.com/a-newbies-guide-to-self-hosting-with-yunohost/ (with 4 articles so far).
Have a great week everyone!

Pixelfed seems to be down. Or is it just me?
Sorry Brent and the half dozen other inquirers, Loops and Pixelfed is not for sale!
I'd be lost without my babies, and even though I'm scraping by financially and could really use that money, I don't think I could live with myself if I sold out.
The #Fediverse deserves leaders who remain ethical and loyal to building better, safer social web alternatives.
We're funded by people like you ❤️

Would you consider selling loops.video...? Hi, My name is Brent from ******.com, the worlds largest M&A Marketplace. Would you consider selling your business - loops.video I've been diving into your niche and traffic ranking, and I have buyers in mind who acquire businesses exactly like yours... I would love to talk you through it in person on a quick call. No obligation of course. Also, you can get a complimentary valuation here when it suits you. Just hit reply, and let's organise a time to chat... Take Care, Brent
Huge round of 👏 for Pixelfeds template moderation.
i never thought I would need this, but with more and more incoming AI applications, it will just save you a lot of nerves and time.
Great job done here @dansup !

Anyone know what's up with PixelFed this week? Seems to be having a multi day outage.
Is it just me or has #PixelFed been down for a while? I can't seem to connect to the server and it's been like that for a while now.

Sup is meant for those who use Snapchat, Whatsapp and Messenger daily, but also brings a clean and refined experience to people who prefer other protocols.
The modular nature of Sup separates identity from protocols to connect you to your people, wherever they are, with push notifications, dark mode, and even video chat!
This should exist, but it would be difficult to grow from scratch...
Unless you had two platforms you could integrate with first class support.

I don't ship updates. I ship upgrades.
Loops beta testers watched me rebuild an app from the ground up - cleaner, faster, with a compose and comment experience much more polished and refined.
Pixelfed app (v4) is the same story. Every pain point addressed. Every rough edge smoothed out.
This is what happens when the people building the app actually use it, and listen to your feedback.
Better. In. Every. Way. 🔥
The first Pixelfed app version.
It was a journey, years of learning and growing.
2020 - Found NativeBase, created a simple mockup to tease official app support
2021 - Experimented with a react-native pixelfed app
2022 - Shipped the first beta (v1)
2023 - Added Stories + dark mode and many improvements (v2)
2024 - Rewrote it to make it faster (v3)
2025 - Public release (Android + iOS app stores)
2026 (Coming soon) - v4: bigger, cleaner and faster with no bugs

Ideally, #Fediverse platforms should be able to interoperate at a deeper level. I should be able to browse a #Lemmy #PeerTube or #PixelFed instance with my #Mastodon account, or vice versa.
My understanding is that (some of) the platforms ideated by Mike Macgirvin (#HubZilla and #streams in particular, not sure about #Friendica) have this kind of integration (as well as other nifty features such as nomadic identities). Can we expand support for this to all Fedi platforms, I wonder?
I am working on Pixelfed again, just shipped a cron job update to expire oauth credentials.
I'm working on a few bug fixes and improvements, and will be tagging a new release next week.
Don't be alarmed at the rate of sudden progress, you were warned 😎

The second 'official' release is here! One big push:
**2x faster prediction, 2x more accurate**
Using parallel binary search + 3-sample probing.

I'm not just working on the Pixelfed frontend/backend, I'm also updating and modernizing our mobile app, it's so much better already.
Faster, Cleaner and Feature Packed.
Comment redesign, Collections, Keyword Filters, Places, Search redesign, Story Polls and much improved Video support.
So much to tease, but I'd rather you experience it yourself.
Soon.

It's hard enough already to get your kids on #pixelfed (because none of the other kids are on it), and then dansup thinks he should make it hard for them to follow my mastodon posts... just plain stupid... might as well defederate pixelfed and loops right now
C'est acté, #Pixelfed annonce faire sécession avec le Fédivers.
@ploum l'avait annoncé, nous y sommes.
Citation du développeur principal:
"Sorry but Pixelfed users don't want to see WordPress/Ghost/WriteFreely posts in feeds just because they have an image attachment.
The purpose of Pixelfed is photo sharing, that is the context, not the caption, the caption can be empty, because it's not the focus.
Let the microblogging platforms handle this."
edit: Apparemment Dansup dit qu'en fait ça sera configurable, mais que par défaut les posts non-images ne seront pas affichés, ce qui est toujours un problème d'après moi si c'est pas correctement expliqué.
edit2: Je ne considère pas de la même manière les services de "production" des services d’"interaction". Les premiers, du style de PeerTube, servent uniquement/principalement à partager du contenu, ils n’ont pas pour vocation d’interagir avec d’autres comptes. Les seconds, comme Mastodon ou Pixelfed ont pour principale vocation d’interagir avec d’autres comptes. Dans ce cas, il est primordial d’être pleinement informé·e si un certain contenu est filtré sur la plateforme, sinon on s’expose à une incompréhension et donc un délaissement du Fédivers.
Donc soit on explique clairement à la création de compte que si on veut voir plus que certains types de contenus, le service n’est pas adapté à l’usage recherché, soit on laisse l’option à l’utilisateurice. Dans ce deuxième cas il faut que ça soit une option bien identifiable, expliquée et facilement accessible, pas un vieil opt-out caché dans des pages de paramètres. J’ai peur que ça soit cette option qui soit privilégiée pour Pixelfed, mais j’ai hâte qu’on me prouve que j’ai tort.

Not sure how to triangulate on the problem, but for the last two days I've not been able to upload images to pixelfed.art from my phone.
Yesterday's sketch had to wait for me to turn on the laptop and use that instead.
Anyone having similar issues?
(I'm using Tusky at present)
I'm not just working on @loops, @fedidb, @webintents, @activityrank, and other initiatives.
I'm also quietly rebuilding @pixelfed, preparing it for a major release that solves every bug and issue you've ever had.
It's not easy, or quick. I have to redesign and rewrite every page, including the admin dashboard.
But trust me, it will be worth the wait.
If you run a Loops server, you know what I mean 😉
Ich habe gerade in meinen friendica-Einstellungen geblättert und gesehen, dass man eine Signatur einrichten kann (Beta-Version).
Zu der Einstellung wird als Erläuterung angegeben: Dieses Add-on fügt automatisch eine anpassbare Signatur zu Beiträgen in Friendica hinzu. Benutzer können es aktivieren oder deaktivieren, persönliche Signaturen definieren und diese optional in Kommentare einfügen.
Wäre das nicht eine Möglichkeit, sich in jedem Beitrag kurz vorzustellen, Hashtags automatisiert einzubringen und/oder die Beiträge sonst irgendwie zu bereichern?

@roblen
Also man sollte den "neuen" #Fediverse Diensten #Pixelfed und #Loops etwas mehr Aufmerksamkeit schenken. Ansonsten wäre vielleicht dem Team hinter #ActivityPub mit regelmäßigen Zuwendungen geholfen.
UND, ich finde man sollte kleinen Serverbetreibern mehr finanzielle Unterstützung für ihre #Instanzen zukommen lassen.
Große Instanzen sind gut und schön, aber widersprechen eigentlich dem Grundgedanken des Fediverse, und sind in meinen Augen auch ein Risiko.

I'm not just working on @loops, @fedidb, @webintents, @activityrank, and other initiatives.
I'm also quietly rebuilding @pixelfed, preparing it for a major release that solves every bug and issue you've ever had.
It's not easy, or quick. I have to redesign and rewrite every page, including the admin dashboard.
But trust me, it will be worth the wait.
If you run a Loops server, you know what I mean 😉
Not me starting a new side project while Pixelfed users feel left out, but this will benefit and be coming to Pixelfed too!
I'm in a unique position to leverage FediDB data with the Activity Intent FEP and implement support in Loops and Pixelfed.
It's pretty much done already too, just need to setup the CDN and redesign a few pages

webintents.net
WebIntents - Universal Follow Button for the Fediverse
Simple, beautiful follow buttons for ActivityPub. Works with Mastodon, Pixelfed, Loops, and all fediverse platforms. Less than 10KB, zero dependencies.

#Loops is a new #Fediverse platform like #TikTok that was just released in the beta stage
it was created by the guy who created #Pixelfed, the fediverse alternative to #Instagram
it just feels like if people are fleeing TikTok now that the fascists have taken over, it would be a great time to introduce them to the fediverse 😁💙
Ist #Pixelfed bei euch auch so zäh und langsam? Oder liegt das
- am Server (pixelfed.de)?
- am Client (Official unter iOS)?
- am Fediverse?
… oder an einer unheiligen Mischung aus allem?
Macht nicht so richtig Laune..
Hier gibt es die Folien zum Berliner Fedi Workshop anlässlich des 2. Di.Day!
Da wir ja einige neue Anmeldungen auf https://punk.photos, https://punktube.net und https://punkstodon.de haben, könnt ihr alle stolz behaupten: #didit !
Und von uns bekommt ihr ein #dutgemacht !
Die Veranstaltung hat uns wirklich Spaß gemacht, wir hoffen euch auch!
Danke an @stullekovski und Team für die location, und die Gastfreundschaft.
Danke an @kneelz von https://berlin.askapunk.de für's mitmachen.
Und danke @Paulaprachtkind für die leckeren Muffins (ich hätte mir welche wegsaven sollen)
Falls ihr Anmerkungen habt, könnt ihr uns diese gerne privat oder öffentlich hier in den Kommentaren zukommen lassen.
Wir laden die Folien abends auch noch mal auf punx.social rauf, jetzt ist leider erst mal Lohnarbeit angesagt 😞
("ist das noch Punkrock? ... ich glaube nicht" )
P.s. den Link zu der speziell für diesenTage erstellten Berliner Anmeldungsseite haben wir aus der Folie entfernt, aber ich glaub das konntet ihr euch auch merken, ansonsten schreibt uns eine PM.
Die bleibt noch etwas online,verschwindet dann aber wieder.
danke auch an den @CCC Save Social und dem Kleinkünstler @marcuwekling für das ganze ins Leben rufen 💗

The image is a screenshot from a mobile application interface that displays an error message during a file upload process. Image Description App Interface: The screen shows an app with a navigation bar at the top (which includes a search bar, a profile icon, and network status indicators like "5G+") and a tab bar at the bottom with icons for Home, Local, New, Alerts, and Profile. The app appears to have features related to posting content, as indicated by the "Next" and "+" buttons near the top right and center bottom. Error Message: A pop-up dialog box is centered on the screen with a large red 'X' icon. The main text reads "Error", followed by the message: "The file may not be greater than 15000 kilobytes." Background Image: Behind the pop-up and interface elements, an image of tree branches with Spanish moss is partially visible in the content area of the app. System UI: The very top of the screen shows the standard Android status bar with the time (10:35), a music note icon next to

Ich finde es erschreckend, dass gerade überall über "Europäische Alternativen" gesprochen wird und dass wir "was eigenes neues brauchen" und keiner von den Holzköpfen merkt, dass das alles längst existiert: #Mastodon, #Pixelfed, #Loops - alles schon da, alles dezentral, kein "W" statt "X" oder eigenes TikTok - man muss sich einfach nur mal umschauen. Recherchiert doch mal ordentlich!

I'm not able to post to #pixelfed currently..keeps saying "can't load some photos. Try again later"
Dump it.

I don't care if the rest of your family is on Facebook, and too stubborn/lazy to move elsewhere.
I don't care if your favorite celeb is on Instagram and nowhere else.
I don't give a single rat's fuck if the nice old knitting lady whose TikToks are so wholesome can't be found elsewhere.
The centralized social media sites support the fash, and you are enabling that with your engagement.
"But Mastodon is too hard.." NO. It's called learning something new. That's your convenience addiction talking.
Fucking find your soul and dump them.

Hallo #friendica.world
So ganz #neuhier bin ich nicht. Ich war vorher bei friendica.io. Aber ein Neuanfang ist ja auch immer eine Chance 😊
Ich komme aus der #Schlossstadt #bruehl und interessiere mich für #Fotografie, #Laufen und #Klettern. Außerdem poste ich hin und wieder was für die #Fedieltern. Ich bekleide ein #Ehrenamt bei #dieGrünen ein.
Ihr findet mich außerdem bei #Mastodon (@my_millennuim@nrw.social) und bei #Pixelfed (@my_millennium@pixelfed.social).
A Crowdsourced Photo Gallery from the Fediverse – the Open Social Web in action
Here are some nice photos from around the fediverse: https://home.scoobysnack.net/gallery/. That page updates automatically as new photos are posted.
How did they get there? Well…
People from all over Mastodon, Pixelfed, Lemmy and more posted photos into these communities:
https://piefed.social/c/photography
https://lemmy.world/c/photography
https://lemmy.world/c/japanpics
… and a few others. Moderators curate those communities to filter out anything obnoxious and people upvote the best ones.
Jerry used his PieFed account to create a “Feed” of 6 photography communities at https://feddit.online/f/photos. In PieFed a Feed is a bundle of communities with all their content shown together in a list. Those communities can be on any Lemmy, PieFed or Mbin instance. In the sidebar you can see all the communities in the Feed. That feed can be Followed, just like an account on Mastodon can be.
Someone on https://piefed.social followed ~photos@feddit.online (the ~ distinguishes it from a person, which uses @ at the start) which created this: https://piefed.social/f/photos@feddit.online. (Following a feed automatically subscribes one to all the communities within and if Jerry adds a new community to the feed all the subscribers auto-follow the new community. But I digress).
The author of home.scoobysnack.net looked up PieFed’s API spec and wrote some JavaScript which uses PieFed’s API to retrieve all the photos in the feed on piefed.social:
GET https://piefed.social/api/alpha/post/list?feed_id=47&limit=40&page=1&nsfw=Exclude&minimum_upvotes=0
… and finally their JavaScript displays the images.
So the journey these photos took went through 6 steps:
Mastodon / PixelFed / author -> Lemmy / PieFed / Mbin communities -> Feddit.online feed -> PieFed.social feed -> PieFed.social API -> home.scoobysnack.net
I think that’s pretty cool.

#fediverse #Lemmy #mastodon #mbin #piefed #pixelfedStop describing the fediverse is Mastodon!
The social platform Fediverse is a collection of volunteer driven knots connected with open source protocols. Protocols are mostly free open source software. Developed by volunteers. Mastodon is one collection of software.
You should promote other software for fediverse also. To keep the idea and the stability of the federated Fediverse.

I've successfully managed to signup a pixelfed profile.
https://pixelfed.social/tropical_wolf
However, I changed the username due to accidentally creating two profiles, the other is https://pixelfed.social/serigala_tropis with the exact same username I am currently using on lgbtqia.space
I already reported the profile to pixelfed to ask them takedown that profile, and I hope they do it soon. I don't want to confuse people with varying usernames.
Also, please: any person claiming to be me is an act of impersonation.

Is there a way to improve the location tagging in #PixelFed? It really sucks.
Dites les fedigens, il n'y a toujours pas possibilité de migrer son contenu Pixelfed vers un nouveau compte Pixelfed n'est-ce pas ?
#Pixelfed
I hate hate hate that I can't mute/block people in the #pixelfed app 🤬
Mondays mean: manually backing up my #YunoHost system.
Speaking of YH, in case you missed it, here is my latest guide for newbies about how to install an app with YunoHost - I showcased NextCloud in my tutorial: https://blog.elenarossini.com/a-newbies-guide-to-self-hosting-with-yunohost-part-3-lets-install-nextcloud/
I'm always surprised by the sheer size of backups - this time 15GB (ugh!) broken down as follows (from biggest to smallest):
#GoToSocial: 6.2 GB
#PeerTube: 4.3 GB
#NextCloud: 3.0 GB
#Pixelfed: 1.5 GB
#LinkStack: 91 MB
I'm brainstorming ways to make my GoToSocial backup size go down... I have cache set to 1 day only, so I'm trying unfollowing a few accounts (that I already follow from my Mastodon profile) to see if that makes a difference.
Anyway, wishing you all a great day & week!

There is something truly special about the relationship between these two. The Cardinal Flower has evolved specifically for the hummingbird; its deep, tubular blooms are difficult for bees to navigate, making the hummingbird its primary and in many ways, its only pollinator.
As the bird reaches deep for that nectar, the flower’s anthers delicately brush pollen onto the hummingbird's head, ready to be carried to the next brilliant red spike.

Liebe @vhsdresden wir sind Teil der #DiDaySupportCommunity. Das ist eine kleine Gruppe, die versucht durch gezielte Aktionen mehr Menschen weg von #BigTech und rein ins #Fediverse zu kriegen.
Eine unserer Leitideen ist Multiplikatoren zu finden, die andere Nutzer zu #Mastodon #Pixelfed #Friendica #Peertube usw. zu locken.
Dazu gehören natürlich auch #Institutionen! Da kommt Ihr ins Spiel. Ihr aus #Dresden seid eine der VHS, die schon hier ist, andere wie z.B. #Leipzig oder #Chemnitz nicht.
Nun möchten wir Euch unterstützen, andere VHS dafür zu gewinnen. Dazu möchten wir Euch folgende Wette anbieten:
Stand heute habt Ihr 98 Follower. Wenn wir es schaffen Euch innerhalb einer Woche 25 neue Follower zu beschaffen, fragt Ihr mindestens 1 andere VHS an, bei 50 mindestens 2 und bei 100 mindestens 3, ob Sie ins Fediverse kommen.
Alle, die dann #neuhier sind, werden von uns gepusht!

Pixelfed is evolving to serve everyone, from casual sharing to professional photography.
Your requests, now in development:
- EXIF metadata (ISO, exposure, etc)
- Pro UI mode (optional, customizable)
- Original image preservation (opt-in)
- Rebuilt Collections & Portfolios
- Improved IG Imports
Simple for everyone. Powerful tools when you need them ✨
@dansup Hello. If you decide to add EXIF metadata support to #Pixelfed at some point in the future, please note that #Vernissage has introduced an ActivityPub extension for this, described here: https://joinvernissage.org/ns#exif.
Supporting the same extension across both platforms would be highly beneficial for users, who should remain the primary focus 😊.

@magdalenahai Millä perusteella valitsit tuon instanssin? Olen pikkuisen tutkinut noita, mutta just instanssin valinta vaikuttaa hankalalta.
Lisäksi siinä miten fediversessä nämä eri "formaatit" keskustelevat keskenään ei tunnu istuvan logiikkaani. Peertube-kanavan tai Pixelfed-tilin tilaaminen ei jotenkin olekaan niin yksinkertaista kuin luulisi.

So Many Pages. Much cleaner design.
Settings + Admin Dashboard are now done though, now I can finish the fun stuff ✨
The new @PixelFed redesign is rapidly taking shape and will replace the entire existing webUI (admin dashboard, settings, guest UI, user UI, legacy UI)!
We are also shipping several new API endpoints and resolving bugs/issues as we proceed with each page redesign.
Stay tuned ✨
Yeah, you will be able to use keyboard shortcuts to easily navigate across the admin dashboard.
`user:@autocompletedUsernameHere` for example will autocomplete usernames that will show the user settings.
Easy. Powerful. Gorgeous.
You can have all 3, it just takes time 😅

Quando pubblico un video su Mastodon si federa su Pixelfed ma non su Loops. Veramente strano. Vi risulta?
Here’s a question I ask myself with genuine curiosity and worries about the first impression newbies get of the Fediverse: When people join the pixelfed.social server, they automatically follow @dansup. Am I the only person to find that weird and somehow unprofessional? #pixelfed #fediverse #pixelfedsocial
At the moment there are monthly workshops everywhere in Germany, to tell people to switch from BigTech to ethical ones.
I will also do a workshop for the praising the Fediverse in February.
Even I'm a #pixelfedadmin, I have to tell the people to chose #Mastodon over #Pixelfed, as Pixelfed is so buggy, that I don't want to frustrate them.
The https://di.day movement at the moment would be a good chance for Pixelfed - but not as it is now, with no updates since September.
@dansup
It has been nagging me a lot, but I finally decided to shut down my Pixelfed server.
There are several reasons. Here are the ones off the top of my mind.
- Pixelfed governance is unclear and its maintenance is spotty and obscure. The project has no clear roadmap and it all feels very off. Even though I was enthusiastic about @PixelfedGlitch, it still seems like this fork is not attracting enough interest and participation to establish a forward-looking plan.
- Beyond governance, I share these concerns.
- I don’t want to maintain a whole instance merely for a single profile—especially after it has been inactive for a long while. Friends and folks who are curious and interested in exploring the Fediverse are welcome to join pan.rent, that is a collective, communal, and cosy instance.
- I am having trouble with the pixelfed_ynh package for YunoHost. PHP dependencies are a mess and services constantly fail. I believe it’s not the fault of YunoHost packaging, but I am no expert, just a feeling. No energy and not worth figuring it out. I tried for a while, I gave up.
- I am generally against the idea of having multiple Fediverse accounts on multiple servers for different uses. Instead, I believe we should improve filtering and sorting posts depending on their type, and having one single account linked to one identity. Overall, Mastodon Glitch Edition does the job for my occasional image and video posting, even if it’s not optimal.
- I want to use the domain https://tmi.pics for a different purpose, probably an Immich server.
Now, a question for all the sysads out there: what are the best practices you recommend before shutting the server down? I have a strong emotional attachment to the ~15 pictures and posts I have on my profile there.
What I am doing, so far:
- saving all Web pages of profiles and posts on the Wayback Machine
- performing and archiving a YunoHost backup of the application
- ?

@dansup is there are reason, while in a longer text only the first 5 links are clickable - and not more in #Pixelfed?
Is this configurable somewhere? (I want it to be unlimited tbh)
Just asking here before going in for writing a feature request.
Thanks a lot for your time answering

@dansup
What you did with loops is really a great success and you can be really proud of what you shipped. I mean that 100%!
But the cost is, that the #pixelfed community is really feeling left behind. We don't need to have new features developed, but getting rid of the bugs we are having in Pixelfed would be a great start.
So please don't forget your pixelfed community and give the pixelfed software some of your time too.
You already merged a lot of code but it never gets released. Why?
...maybe.
#activitypub #pixelfed #newyear
I still find it weird that
a) you registrer different accounts on Mast, Pixelfed and Loops
b) everything winds up in the Mastodon feed
c) pixelfed and loops content is consumed in Mastodon as if they were microblog posts, you can't tap through and open them in their proper app and context
d) there's no way of knowing if a post is from pixelfed/loops
I would like shared content from pixelfed and loops to open in the respective app when you tap.
#pixelfed #loops #mastodon
...maybe.
#activitypub #pixelfed #newyear

@dansup what would be great, not sure if the changes have to be on #loops or on #mastodon and #pixelfed side (I guess changes need to be done on all sides) that a shared loops video could be played directly in Mastodon and Pixelfed.
I shared this link directly from the loops app... but it uses a picture for sharing...

@dansup can you PLEEEEAAASE (!!) first fix the Pixelfed privacy vulnerability I was reporting over a month ago?
I only got one email that you are "looking into this" and that you are "working on a fix"
I haven't heard anything about this yet. but my private messages are still publicly available on pixelfed, instead of being private!
I can also report the issue officially on Pixelfeds Github, if you prefer it.
Thx

Also, has anyone found a way of displaying their #Pixelfed feed or the portfolio thingy on there in an attractive way on their website? I tried a couple of ways and they looked a bit clumsy. 😐

The Seven Deadly UX Sins of the Fediverse Web Experience (To Fix)
So, confession time: I was recently helping a new client get set up on the Fediverse—guiding them through their first steps into our glorious decentralized galaxy. And seeing it all again through fresh eyes? Reader, it was brutal. So much of what should be table stakes for any social media UX in the year of our Lord 2025 still is missing or deeply broken still. I know progress has been made and a good fight, fought.

▶️ Loops will become the third most-used Fediverse software by MAU by end of 2026, trailing only Mastodon and Pixelfed. The short-form video platform will cross 100,000 monthly active users, with Loops-originated content generating significant federated engagement from non-Loops clients — proving that ActivityPub can power video-centric social experiences.

Do I regret turning down VC money? Not for a second.
VC funding is fast growth paid for by betraying your day-one users and abandoning your principles. That's always the trade.
I'll choose failure over selling out every time.
This community actually matters to me, and I mean that.
If I didn't care about you or the fediverse, I would have sold out long ago.
You deserve better. ❤️

A newbie's guide to self-hosting with YunoHost. Part 2: installation & setup
A step-by-step visual guide for newbies about how to install and setup YunoHost - it's easy, fast and accessible to all
It’s happening!!! I signed up for a #VPS and I’m about to install #YunoHost. Exciteeeeeeed (and slightly scared).
I’m so early in my #Linux journey but I was emboldened after watching a video walkthrough of YunoHost, with the narrator repeating time and time again « it’s so easy a child could do it ».
Let’s see if « it’s so easy a Linux newbie could do it».
Wish me luck! 😅

Any other music making/listening/animation/all of the above folks on #Pixelfed? Just created an account to have a poke around, even though I'm not sure I need another place to log into.
However, I am considering moving all of my Neighbourhood photos there if it looks good, as I saw you can embed them on your website, plus a lot of them are of the Isle of Wight and how weird it is, something I think more folks should see. 🤷♀️

Good morning Fedi friends!
This week I will publish a first post in my mini series for total newbies about how to self-host with #YunoHost.
The very first article will simply cover the basics of what is needed... then part 2 will be the step-by-step installation and connecting a domain + creating a subdomain... and then part 3 will cover installing an app (NextCloud) and setting up a backup system.
I'm hoping to get all this done before Christmas, in time for my one year anniversary of self-hosting with YunoHost (thank you again @ilja for setting all this in motion last year).
As I type this, I'm currently backing up my YunoHost and these days my backup files are about 13GB in size, broken down as follows (in descending order):
- #GoToSocial: 5.3 GB
- #PeerTube: 4 GB
- #NextCloud: 2.3 GB
- #Pixelfed: 1.4 GB
- #LinkStack: 91 MB
Wishing you all a great day & week!
Hello! Does anyone have any recommendations for pixelfed instances? I need an instance that has a curated sign-up, and is okay with minors (somewhere around 14+) and kinda gimmicky accounts (aka, I plan to post my collection of trashcans). Russian/English/all languages.
small-ish server with whimsy/fandom posting would be preferred, but like. That's not a deal breaker

@dansup I like the way #Pixelfed is. And I don't share the criticism. Mastodon doesn't show my full articles from WordPress. Nobody complains about that. In the contrary: people on Mastodon say, that Mastodon is a short message service and it shouldn't display long form texts.
Please stay true to your vision and don't get distracted. I like an app with an attitude more than an app that serves a standard for its own sake.

Our @pixelfed community is incredible, defending our project while pushing it forward.
I'm committed to listening more. But let's be clear: we're not just fixing bugs. We're dismantling Big Tech's stranglehold on social media.
Pixelfed is sawing off Instagram's branch to plant something better: a platform owned by its users, not corporations.

„Is Pixelfed sawing off the branch that the Fediverse is sitting on?“
Interesting article but I disagree with the premise:
The #ActivityPub protocol does not demand to display all messages.
Actually, it doesn’t make any sense even.
When I use #Pixelfed, I do that to see pictures only. That’s the whole point.
If I want to see more, I have to use a more generic platform, like #Mastodon.

I think I have identified a fairly significant flaw in how the #Fediverse currently operates. Hear me out.
The Fediverse currently consists of all sorts of different systems - #Mastodon, #Friendica , #Pixelfed , #PeerTube, #BookWyrm , and so forth. And while they are all connected via the #ActivityPub protocol, they all have different functionalities and different ways of presenting themselves. Which is as it should be, because Diversity Is Our Strength(TM).
However, it is here that the ActivityPub-based interactivity hits its limits - for usually, you can either experience the relevant system as it was intended, or you can interact with it, but not both - _unless_ you have an account on the same system (though not necessarily on the same instance).
Let's say that you are a Mastodon user who looks at another person's BookWyrm page. You scroll through their books, posts, and comments. Then you see some comment you want to comment on yourself, but can you do so?
Not directly. You need to figure out the URL of their comment, and then copy and paste that comment into the search bar of your Mastodon instance. Then it will show up in the same format as a Mastodon post, and you can interact with it - boost it, like it, comment on it.
Sure, it works, but it's a whole lot of tedious effort.
Or you can search for the user account in Mastodon and scroll through all their posts and comments as if they were a Mastodon user - and thus, you will miss out on all the unique user interface features of BookWyrm.
So what is missing?
Well, Mastodon already has an "Open original page" feature when looking at someone's post. What we need is an "Open original page AND AUTHENTICATE" feature. This way, the target instance (whatever software they are using) could acknowledge the viewer as an external user who could nevertheless fully interact with the local user interface, including the ability to boost, like, and make comments.
This is something that should be theoretically possible to implement, right? #FediHelp
I think I have identified a fairly significant flaw in how the #Fediverse currently operates. Hear me out.
The Fediverse currently consists of all sorts of different systems - #Mastodon, #Friendica , #Pixelfed , #PeerTube, #BookWyrm , and so forth. And while they are all connected via the #ActivityPub protocol, they all have different functionalities and different ways of presenting themselves. Which is as it should be, because Diversity Is Our Strength(TM).

Three frameworks for backend kings under the sky,
Seven for app-stores in halls of stone,
Nine for users doomed to scroll...
But Two UIs were forged in the fires of the fediverse.
Two UIs to rule them all, Two UIs to find them,
Two UIs to bring them all, and in the open web bind them.
The new Pixelfed & Loops Web UIs.

Following the 🤝 Franco-German Summit on European Digital Sovereignty, one thing is clear: Europe cannot strengthen its technological leadership while its own institutions remain dependent on foreign digital platforms. The European Parliament still relies on U.S. services, like Microsoft, Google, Meta and X, for essential communication and infrastructure - leaving us vulnerable to shutdowns and external influence. 📣 If the EU wants to champion technological sovereignty, it must start at home. 🚨 What I will fight for in the coming months : 1️⃣ Demand the transitioning of software used in the EU Parliament to EU-hosted, open-source digital tools for communication and collaboration. This is essential to safeguard cybersecurity, protect sensitive data from extraterritorial surveillance, and comply with GDPR. 2️⃣ Advocate to align institutional practices with the EU’s vision for digital sovereignty and technological independence. The Parliament must lead by example if Europe wants to build credible, resilient alternatives. 3️⃣ Demand that the Parliament invests in open-source solutions to boost transparency, innovation and European tech ecosystems – and the Parliament’s ability to counter foreign interference and misinformation. Open-source platforms enable peer review, accountability, and public trust. Platforms like X have repeatedly interfered in European political discourse. Relying on them weakens our ability to protect democratic processes. 🔥 We can start now – we have the alternatives : ✔️ openDesk instead of Microsoft Teams / OneDrive / SharePoint ✔️ Mastodon or Bluesky instead of X/Twitter ✔️ Pixelfed instead of Instagram / Facebook ✔️ Signal instead of WhatsApp / Slack ✔️ PeerTube instead of YouTube ✔️ Qwant or Ecosia as search default | 13 comments on LinkedIn

Out of curiosity, what #FediVerse applications _other_ than Mastodon have you used?
In my case, it's:
- #BookWyrm
- #PixelFed
- #Lemmy
- #NeoDB
- #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin
Has anyone else had trouble with the #pixelfed shared inbox?
Seems hits to /f/inbox don't send a username. Worker gives the error: "ActivityHandler: No username provided, skipping job"
Likes from self-hosted #mastodon go to the user inbox, Boosts and Comments go to the shared one.
I disable shared inbox in pixelfed .env and Mastodon still sends to /f/inbox even after refreshing the cached pixelfed profile.
At least I know why it's happening now!

I'm taking a break from Loops to fix some recent federation issues in @pixelfed
While I'm at it, I'm also fixing some old bugs like proper cache invalidation in Notifications, improved support for libvips and other file formats, and more!
Shoutout to @shlee for shipping a ton of bug fixes too, we make a great team ❤️
Stay tuned, we'll be tagging a new release this weekend with a ton of federation + UI/UX fixes

Zum Posten längerer Texte gibt es besser geeignete Formate als die Kurznachrichten auf #Mastodon. Im #Fediverse nutze ich #Pixelfed, andere empfehlen #Friendica. Wahrscheinlich gibt es noch mehr.
Die Systeme sind weitestgehend kompatibel und barrierarm untereinander nutzbar.
Auf #Mastodon nutze ich manchmal die Möglichkeit, längere Texte als Bilddatei zu teilen (nutzt den Alt-Text). Dann gerne auch mit dem Setzen von Highlights mit Textmarkern.
People ask why Pixelfed and Loops aren't merged.
Pixelfed and Loops solve different problems.
Pixelfed: chronological, photo-centric, algorithm-free.
Loops: algorithmic video discovery via For You feeds.
Forcing a Reels feed into Pixelfed would compromise both products, you can't build engaging short video feeds without algorithms.
Real community-driven development means listening — and you've spoken: keep Pixelfed pure and let Loops lead the short video revolution ✨

dansup (@dansup@mastodon.social)
@hiphopheaven @joergi@chaos.social I agree, I think it's best to keep Pixelfed dedicated to photo sharing, while still allowing you to see videos in feeds But we will not add a Reels like tab or full screen video like Instagram, because most users do not want that. That is what Loops is for! (Trust me, I thought a lot about this, and almost made Loops a Pixelfed app feature, glad I didn't because the community doesn't want that)

Today's deep dive into #activitypub
#selfhosting a #pixelfed instance, I send a Follow request to a selfhosted #wordpress blog with AP plugin. The returned Accept Follow payload gets processed by InboxWorker where it just fizzles.
I then send a Follow request to an account hosted on mastodon.social. Returned Accept gets processed by InboxValidator instead, then on to ActivityHandler and down the FollowPipeline as expected.
Only message difference is #mastodon adds a 'username' field.
Bug?

Preparing a new Pixelfed server release with fixes for Instagram Import, Account Migration and more!
@koteisaev hello! 👋
thanks to the WONDERFUL @yunohost I have a VPS running my self-hosted #GoToSocial instance (this one), #Pixelfed for photos and #PeerTube for videos.
I also have a #LinkStack account (think: Linktree alternative - https://elena.social) and if I wanted I could host my own Wordpress site (but I've been running my own, outside of the YH system, since 2010).
I cannot recommend #YunoHost enough. They're THE BEST 🏆

I started mass-uploading some of my artworks on my previously abandoned instagram account, for posterity reasons. I don't really use the platform (I much prefer PixelFed).
But really, it's a sad situation with the IG algorithm. Illustrations that once could easily get 1000 likes, circa 2015, now get about 10. I'm a huge proponent of the chronological feed. I really dislike "recommendations". It's undemocratic.
⚠️ Please update your site
We frequently observe numerous sites across the Fediverse running very outdated versions of Mastodon or Misskey. Some sites are even using versions over a year old.
Software updates include not only new features but also critical security fixes. To keep your site secure and stable, ensure you always use the latest version.

I like how on Pixelfed every so often someone will find your profile and think "Oh I like that one, and that one, ooh yeah that one too..." and you get this delightful little trail of likes on random stuff, all from a single person. #Pixelfed #Fediverse

Hey Pixelfed fam! 👋
You're always on my mind. Everything I'm building with Loops right now? It's all coming back to Pixelfed later this year.
Can't wait to bring you a fresh, modern experience across web and mobile. 🚀
While React Native <Text> components do support a `selectable` prop, you can only copy the whole block of text.
BlueSky wrote an awesome library to handle proper selection as most users desire.
Now using it in the new Loops app, and soon in the Pixelfed app ✨

Auch wenn ich #Mastodon ueber die Jahre immer noch parallel bespielt habe... meine Guete ist das angenehm hier, wenn man das nun konsequenter durchzieht.
Und damit meine ich vor allen Dingen weitere #Fediverse Services. Allein, dass mein Blog @info nun seit August angebunden ist, #Pixelfed und #Loops ein wenig mehr Traktion bekommen...
Hat sowas von wieder verknallt sein und zwar nicht nur in eine Idee, sondern einen Wandel.
Die Zeit war noch nie so reif wie jetzt!

Ideas are cheap. Building them yourself? That's the superpower.
Self-taught high school dropout energy hits different when you're building the future of social media.
The fediverse keeps me hungry. Yeah, there's bumps — but look at what we built together this year.
We're not done yet ❤️
@dansup @activityrank are you planning on bringing this to #Pixelfed as well?
It’s ironic — Pixelfed thrives without algorithms, yet Loops users demand a great one.
That’s why Loops became its own project.
We’ll always keep Pixelfed’s reverse-chronological magic intact.
But Loops is different: we’re building an ethical algorithm that connects people to ideas, creators to communities, and sparks a movement that belongs to all of us.

I could’ve sold out earlier this year - but I didn’t, because I believe in the fediverse.
So yeah, it stings when people judge my mistakes or believe exaggerated stories. But I’ll keep learning in public, owning my missteps, and building something worth believing in.
This is bigger than me, and I want to make our amazing community proud.
Because all this hard work is for you. ❤️

I'm doing this week at work a talk about the Fediverse (a beginner talk)...
what do you think, should be definitely in?
(of course I will show all the major plattforms (e.g. @Mastodon, @pixelfed, @LemmyDev, @info and so on.. maybe even @loops)
and I will definitely show the lovely 4min video from @_elena which is a great introduction to the Fediverse)

Naja wenn von den 40 Millionen Usern auf #bluesky auch nur 50% aktiv sind es auch nur noch 20 Millionen aktive User.
Davon ab, ist das #Fediverse nicht nur #mastodon . Es gibt auch #hubzilla #friendica #pixelfed #peertube u.a. Fediverse was anderes als nur #microblog !
Bluesky wird mehr in den Medien erwähnt als das Fediverse. Wahrscheinlich weil das Wesen des Fediverse noch nicht verstanden wird!

💡 Proposal for ActivityPub: FediStamp
What if any federated platform (Mastodon, WordPress, Pixelfed, PeerTube, WriteFreely...) could offer automatic certification of original content?
When publishing a poem, article, photo or video, you check "Certify original content" and the system gives you:
🔗 A public verifiable link to the registry
📄 A .fedistamp file as permanent proof
✅ A visible badge (Certified content) with clickable link
🧩 Metadata embedded in ActivityPub that travels with each share
Example: I publish a poem on Mastodon, enable the option, and instantly get my ✓ certified proof of authorship.
👉 This doesn't replace copyright (which already protects you), but strengthens it with technical evidence of authorship and date.
⚡ Key points:
Only registers the content hash (no cryptocurrency, just authorship certification).
Free.
Opt-in: you choose what to certify.
Automatic protection for creators across the federated ecosystem, without relying on centralized platforms.
I'm not a programmer, just a writer who sees the need. If someone technical sees merit and feasibility, go ahead.

I not only maintain a list of digital service providers that operate outside U.S. jurisdiction, but also a list of Fediverse sites that use non-U.S. domain extensions.
If these sites also use web hosting outside the United States, their websites could be fully outside U.S. legal reach — which is a smart move. 😉

This is the default profile photo assigned when you first create a Mastodon account.
If you're still using this photo, and someone like me — who occasionally clears out inactive accounts — sees that you joined 11 months ago but haven’t posted in the past 6, and you never bothered to update your profile... Bye-bye.

#pixelfed 落ちてる?
I've been looking into @pixelfed lately and am considering creating an account, but I'm not sure what's the impact of signing in with my existing @Mastodon account versus creating a dedicated account for Pixelfed 🤔
Anyone who knows of a doc explaining this, or existing discussions about the topic? 🙏
@dansup
When will this be rolled out? What's hindering this roll out technically?
Just a short bugfix rollout would be really helpful for all the pixelfed users. Thanks in advance.
#introduktion
Jeg er ved at lære #fødiverset at kende.
Jeg har oprettet profiler på forskellige #platforme for at blive lidt klogere på forskellene.
Jeg tror, jeg ville bruge dem sådan her:
- #Pixelfed til at dele de små ting i livet. @Irpelkratt
- #Mastodon til at søge og dele indsigt. @LaBuS
- #Friendica til ... noget venskabelighed, måske? @labus@friendica.dk
- #Peertube er jeg ikke nået til (endnu)

#introduction
I am getting to know the #fediverse.
I have created profiles on different #platforms in order to get a little wiser on the differences.
I think I shall be using them like this:
- Pixelfed for sharing the little things in life.
- Mastodon for searching and sharing insights.
- Friendica for ... some sort of friendliness, perhaps?
- Peertube I have not come to (yet).

If you want to log in on a Pixelfed server, you need a Pixelfed account on that server. You *cannot* sign in on a Pixelfed server with a Mastodon account.
There is a button labelled "Sign in with Mastodon" on Pixelfed but it does not do what it claims to do. Every time you use this button, it creates a new totally separate Pixelfed account using info from your Mastodon profile.

Good morning! If you’re on mastodon.social (or another server running nightly builds) you can begin quoting posts in your posts (quooting?) starting today. Remember, you control whether you can be quoted, and can always retract your post from a specific quote. And you can quote me on that!

@hosford42 @Em0nM4stodon Of course! Since you're already on Mastodon, the first thing I'd suggest is replacing all Big Tech social platforms with fediverse alternatives. That means Instagram with @pixelfed
, YouTube with @peertube 🚫
, Reddit with Lemmy 🗨️
📱 Next step - switch from WhatsApp or Messenger to @signalapp
It's a secure, private messenger with end-to-end encryption (E2EE) - actually, WhatsApp is based on Signal's protocol. I also use @matrix 🌐 - it's a decentralized messenger with E2EE too. It works kind of like the fediverse - you choose a server where your messages and data are stored, and when you chat with someone, the servers federate.
You should also replace Gmail - it's pure Big Tech. I use Protom Mail
, but I'm thinking about switching to @Tutanota. Their company seems more focused on email, while Proton is building a whole ecosystem. Both are encrypted and have great privacy policies 🔒
🌍 Now, about browsing the internet - instead of Chrome or other trackers, I recommend @brave 🦁 It has a built-in ad blocker and blocks tracking scripts. It also protects against fingerprinting and other privacy threats 🚫
🔎 And what about search engines? Time to dethrone Google. I use DuckDuckGo
, @StartpageSearch, and Brave Search. Each has pros and cons, but all claim to protect your privacy.
🔐 You mentioned logging into many accounts with Google
- unfortunately, there's no universal way to switch to manual login. You have to check each service's settings one by one. Once you do, I recommend using a password manager that doesn't collect your metadata - @bitwarden 💪 It's open-source, had no major leaks, and you can even host it yourself.
💻 Want to go all in? Replace your operating system. It's a later step, but a powerful one. For desktop - Linux
For smartphone - @GrapheneOS 📱 Both are privacy-focused and offer top-level security 🔐
🚀 Hope this helps you build your long-term path away from Big Tech. If you have questions, feel free to ask!
#BigTechExit #BigTech #PrivacyTools #Privacy #Security #Freedom #IT #Tech #Fediverse #DeGoogle #Mail #Browser #SearchEngine #Password #OS #Google #WhatsApp #Messenger #Gmail #Mastodon #Pixelfed #Peertube #Lemmy #Signal #Matrix #Proton #Tuta #Brave #DuckDuckGo #Startpage #Bitwarden #Linux #GrapheneOS
Sorry for the Loops delays - I got caught up perfecting every tiny detail instead of shipping fast.
I know waiting sucks, but I promise the final result will make it worthwhile 🚀
Take a look at the early https://loops.video while you can, the new v1 experience will be rolling out soon!

Se hai un account del forumverso sarà sufficiente sottoscrivere le comunità di feddit.it e citiverse.it.
Se invece hai solo un account social come Mastodon, Pixelfed, #Pleroma o Friendica, allora ti basta menzionare la comunità che ti interessa
what I'd really love to see for #pixelfed is a more robust focus on the photography aspect and providing a better feed/gallery/image-sharing experience.
Collections is a good start, but it needs a ton of work to make it really useful (and usable). Instagram is missing decent curation tools, and that's something Pixelfed could fill the void on, too. innovation like that is being passed over in favor of poorly aping Instagram's worst features that are better left to other platforms.
sigh.
Reppin’ the Fedi:

The new Pixelfed Story features that are in development are very cool, and will bring a whole new dimension to this unique medium.
More details soon 👀
hey @dansup - do you have any chance to look at this #PixelfedBug ?
https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/6064
it's about how ugly all non-pixelfed posts look on pixelfed, because of the removing of line breaks.
I guess for you this is a real quick one. I was already looking at the code, but I haven't seen where this happens.
Thanks

[Bug]: remove of line-breaks from non-pixelfed posts is leading to broken links and hashtags · Issue #6064 · pixelfed/pixelfed

🌕✨ Witnessing the magic of the universe!
I had the incredible opportunity to capture the September 2025 lunar eclipse right here in Kigali, Rwanda. The moon, glowing in shades of red and shadow, was absolutely breathtaking.
Shot with my Nikon D7200 paired with a Tamron 150-600mm lens, this moment reminds me just how small we are compared to the wonders above us. 🌌

Não sei se é por causa dos stories, que ocupam o topo da tela, mas o #pixelfed tá jogando a barra de comandos para baixo dos botões do Android e não consigo mais usar 😒
So wird’s nix. Die offizielle #Pixelfed App für die private, coprfreie und adfreie Alternative gibt’s nicht direkt im F-Droid-Store und verlinkt direkt auf den Play- und Appstore?
Augenscheinlich gibts wohl en Repository zum Einbinden. Nach 20 Minuten erfolglos aufgegeben.
Was ist so schwer daran, einfach eine Version auf der Website zur Verfügung zu stellen?
Super empolgado com o início do projeto #fediverso nas universidades públicas que estamos gestando desde o Nudecri/Unicamp, eu, o @r_evangelista e outros colegas que vão se somar nos próximos dias. Criamos uma instância, essa aqui: @nudecri mas vamos ir deixando ela mais bonitinha proximamente. Acreditamos no Fediverso como um dos caminhos para criar #SoberaniaDigital desde as universidades, é isso que queremos estudar com nosso piloto. Vem também as instâncias no #pixelfed e no #peertube, nos aguardem 😎
@martin @xChaos A není tam ani většina sítí ve #fediverse - např. instance #PixelFed, #PeerTube, #Friendica, #Pleroma... 😁
dear pixelfed admins
if you have pixelfed servers and you are able to repost you can help us
please go into your admin thing -> diagnostics -> click the Copy Diagnostics
button and send to us.
Reposting is not working for servers with mysql, postgresql or mariadb.
We want to see why.
Thanks a lot
Empire had the advantage of scale and infrastructure
Foundation had the advantage of knowledge and adaptability
Big Tech has the users
We have the protocol

Something is really fishy. I am logged into Pixelfed on my phone, but I just can't get in on the web. I tried the recover email link, and it claims the username I am using *while logged in on my phone* does not exists? WTF?

Pixelfed es una aplicación bastante inmadura en el sentido de que funciona con muchos fallos (aka como el culo). Hace unas semanas se bloqueó el servidor en el que tenía la cuenta, me intenté cambiar a otro y en el traslado desaparecieron los seguidores. No es una gran pérdida, pero me da pena. Eso sumado a que no se pueden traspasar ni las imágenes, ni a las personas que seguía en el antiguo servidor ni nada de nada, pues que ando empezando de nuevo. Quienes me seguíais, me habéis perdido y aun tenéis ganas de ver mis fotos, esta es mi nueva cuenta:

The new PixelFed update looks so dope! It really brings me back to the good old days of the internet, where the focus was purely on community and content without the clutter of ads. It’s so refreshing to see people building something that really feels like the internet used to.

The difference is Mastodon can do what Twitter never could. It talks to Instagram-like services such as #Pixelfed. It talks to Reddit-like services such as #Piefed. And Mastodon itself isn’t even Instagram-like or Reddit-like.
If that sounds confusing, that’s fair. It just means shifting your mental model of how the social web actually works.

AFAIK, the "fed" suffix in both "pixelfed" and "piefed" is short form "Fediverse".
"Fediverse" is often shortened to both "fedi" and "fed".

I lost even more followers due to defederation of further instances by the new photog.social admins.
Time to look for a new home... I dont feel as this is a good instance any more.
Based on other people's experience: Would it be better to use a #Mastodon account for my photography or go to #Pixelfed as a more photo-oriented platform that still federates to Mastodon?
just noticed these early in the #pixelfed changelog, haven't checked them yet

Stories are a heck of a complex feature, in almost every way (composing, federating and viewing)
I’ve put a lot of effort into a solid MVP with photo stories that support text, mention and link overlays that are interactive on the client.
We will be shipping this to our iOS TestFlight first, and will focus on bug fixes before promoting it to the production track on Android and iOS app stores.
Stay tuned ✨
You will be able to share your Pixelfed posts to your Story with one tap.
You will also be able to share Stories in DMs.
We will bring back the DM button to the app feed so you can easily share posts in DMs.
We have so much potential with all these features, now we need to make them more connected.
The future of Pixelfed isn't just our chronological feed, but also to build places to share directly with your people.
Sup will play a major role too.
Stay tuned ✨
It's easy to build a grid layout for photos.
It's hard to convince people to use it.
A grid doesn't make you Instagram.
The secret is making photo sharing engaging for everyone, with tools like Stories and Portfolios that respect the art of photography.
Otherwise it's just Twitter with pics.

Did you know I built Polls into Stories when I originally released the feature 4 years ago, but at the last minute I decided against enabling Poll support because it wasn't polished enough?

Pixelfed Stories are one of the most anticipated features, with high expectations.
I understand this and am working hard to make them perfect for you.
Smooth animations, beautiful design, and the polished experience you deserve.
Your patience means everything! 🙏 ✨

Finishing the Stories Carousel is the last major task before shipping Stories to our mobile app (TestFlight first).
We’re caching the carousel today and invalidating on Story view/create, but that’s a poor UX. I’m building a Redis-backed fanout + view state service that will generate carousels on-demand, cutting latency and scaling cleanly.

I will add new Push Notifications to compliment Pixelfed Stories, for example you may see new ones like:
- [username] shared your post in their Story
- [username] mentioned you in their Story
- [username] replied to your Story
- [username] reacted to your story
- Pixelfed posted a new Story*
- Dansup, TaylorSwift, Drake and 4 others posted Stories recently*
* - Opt-in by default
I'll be publishing PAE-06 this week, it's our Story ActivityPub extension!

The Story Composer took a lot of work, I’m really proud of it, even though it still needs a bit more polishing.
There are only paid libraries to do this kind of stuff in react-native, so I had to learn rn-gesture-handler to build it and make it work properly and performantly.
On the bright side, we can extend this with new features and keep the whole experience simple and familiar.
Prepare for the inevitable Eternal Story September 😉

a friend of mine would like to join the fedi. he'd like to post drawing he does and prefers an "imageboard" UI, so i advised him to go to a pixelfed instance.
does anyone know a good pixelfed instance for him (or an instance of another software with a similar UI)?
#pixelfed #joinfedi #fediquestion #advice
Dumb question that I was always too afraid to ask:
I know how the #Fediverse and its federation works. It's intuitive and familiar to me; I mean, I even host my own instance.
But I never understood how interaction cross-software is supposed to work. In theory, I can use whatever #ActivityPub software I want and still interact with everyone else. But in practice that just... isn't the case, right?
I mean, for text it's quite simple: I write a short post on #Mastodon and people on #GoToSocial or #Misskey or whatever can see and read that same post and interact with it. They can see my profile and it appears on their instance in their style and with their features.
Even outside of microblogging I still get it. A super-long post on #Friendica or #Diaspora appears on my timeline, too. Their profiles might have more fields than I can see here, but that's fine.
But what's up beyond that?
I can see #Pixelfed posts here, converted into image galleries. But what about the other way 'round? If someone on Pixelfed follows my Mastodon account, they can't see any of my non-image posts, right?
What about #PeerTube and such niche software? I guess I could follow a PeerTube account as a microblogger and see their videos and descriptions in my timeline. Video comments are replies.
But the other way 'round? How are they supposed to interact with Friendica or Pixelfed users? PeerTube doesn't even have a "timeline".
Doesn't that feature disparity undermine the whole idea of the #Fediverse or am I missing something?

Speaking of Stories, they are quite unique in the fediverse.
We've federated Stories in @pixelfed for several years using bearcaps that expire after 15 minutes.
Meaning that only Pixelfed servers are able to handle and fetch the activity, and we also rotate the media urls after 30 mins.
We federate Stories using an object (with a Story type) like:
```
bear:?t=Tg8cKH1DGwBoZVQEuPaWFyMdcKHmUZd6Ow0DjCxkS80UKQ7hiHMpi6CWgxOoxJhk&u=https://pixelfed.social/stories/dansup/1
```
I finished building the Story Composer for @PixelFed ✨
We're not quite ready to deploy this yet, with these new interactive elements I need to:
- Store them with hitSlop dimensions
- Render the links in both webUI and mobile
- Update federation to handle the interactive layer
And eventually publish a FEP for this, we already have Stories on web, and I can't wait to bring them to our mobile app!

Pixelfed is great, its like the old instagram before we were forced to make reels, videos and take 3 cameras with us. One to photograph, one to video and one to video your video videoing your videoing.
Born to take photos. Forced to make reels 😏
#pixelfed #instagram #reels #reel #shorts #short #video #videos #photopgrapher #photo #photography
Unpopular feedback about #Pixelfed. I really want to love PF, but...
1. I need simple drag n drop multi upload panel. Having to navigate to images before I actually create a post is REALLY offputting
2. Why cant I create a new post FIRST - before I publish, like all other socmed?
3. Why are img thmbs so small when creating the post?
4. Why cant I multi-upload images?
3. Why are stories and collections prioritised over simple UX improvements?
Please dont shout at me.

I know PixelFed exists but it's all just text and video and images at the end of the day - so what if the Mastodon interface just looked like Instagram and then you could sign in using your existing Mastodon account... a concept:
This is just hacked together real quick, but should I work on this to make it a real thing?

Still waiting for the browser UI of the "loops" service. Seems like the focus is still on Pixelfed, which is totally fine.
Is anyone aware of any plans when the UI which was shown earlier this year will be in place?
Proud of my daughter: "Where's a good place I can upload photos from my various projects where I know they're safe and I can't get locked out or lose access?". This is a 20-year old iPhone user brought up on Google Classroom/Drive, etc. So I run my own servers across various datacentres, do I go for #NextCloud, a #PixelFed instance or just scare her with a place she can scp to?
Any update on this @dansup ?

Also, there's a new #Pixelfed account, @jens, where I moved quite everything from the Enshittification Kingdom to the #Fediverse, resigning from adding big white borders to my pictures to please the erratic way #Instagram decides to layout our streams. Nevertheless, Pixelfed (especially when hosted on a private server) heavily struggles with some limitations that might be baked into the #ActivityPub protocol, and loads of bugs that have been there for years now.

GoToSocial Adventures: migrate from Pixelfed
When I decided to stop publishing on Instagram, I seeked for alternatives and Pixelfed looked like a nice one. The fact that it had a migration feature from IG made me go for it. But for reasons, I don’t want to use this software anymore. And now that GoToSocial features the Gallery / Gram-style layout , it is time to migrate the account and its data to GtS.
So…I didn’t notice when this happened recently, but continuing the trend of my #Fediverse powered social profiles being more successful than I ever was in corporate silos, my #Pixelfed account now has more followers than I ever had back in the day on Instagram. 🙌
🌟 Go Fedi! 🌟

Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

I'm writing a piece for my personal newsletter/blog (which you can find at https://exposed.ishotjr.com/ ) about independent and #OpenSource alternatives to #BigTech. Many of us here fled other #SocialMedia platforms as #enshittification (and often worse!) set in, and found greener pastures on #Mastodon, as well as switching to #Pixelfed for posting pics, #Kagi for our search needs, etc. — what other #tools, #apps, and #services do you use and recommend? Please #BoostForReach if you are able! 🤘💗🤘

@dansup Yes. But it's still something essential... I mean, earning a living. And that makes me think of video content creators like on YouTube.
It's something that's present and needs to be taken into account. For example, on Peertube, I think there's a feature to provide financial support with a redirect link 🤔

I have now found 1070 verified accounts from media organizations in the #Fediverse, but only on #Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Bluesky, #Ghost and #Peertube.
Just one is on #Sharkey (👋🏻 @heiseBotti) and none on #Pixelfed, #Lemmy, #Piefed, #Misskey & Co. Are there really none there, or did I miss some?

I'm writing a piece for my personal newsletter/blog (which you can find at https://exposed.ishotjr.com/ ) about independent and #OpenSource alternatives to #BigTech. Many of us here fled other #SocialMedia platforms as #enshittification (and often worse!) set in, and found greener pastures on #Mastodon, as well as switching to #Pixelfed for posting pics, #Kagi for our search needs, etc. — what other #tools, #apps, and #services do you use and recommend? Please #BoostForReach if you are able! 🤘💗🤘
For today's #ThankYouTuesday, I'd like to thank everyone who supports the Fediverse. So, that means *you*. Yes, you, the one reading this.
Thank you!
The Fediverse truly is for everyone: if you don't have the skills or means to set up your own instance, you can join one of the public instances that aligns with your aspirations. If you can and want to, you can create your own instance, and thanks to lightweight (and interoperable) software, you can do it with spare hardware or very affordable VPS.
So thank you to all of you, friends of the Fediverse!

Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

Hello @dansup, this is there for a few days now. Can you please add our server to the pixelfed directory?
server is punk.photos
thanks in advance!

The redesigned Pixelfed webUI will be rolling out later this month!
It's everything you ever wanted, and more - cleaner, faster and feature packed.
One more thing, we're also bringing Stories to our official app.
Stay tuned! 👀
Ordered more stickers that I'll be giving out at https://fedicon.ca 😎
Just built something I don't think any other fediverse project has: ultra-granular federation controls.
Loopers can pick exactly which servers to federate with, go local-only, or even pause delivery.
It was tough to code, but our community deserves this power ❤️

Sorry for the Loops delays - I got caught up perfecting every tiny detail instead of shipping fast.
I know waiting sucks, but I promise the final result will make it worthwhile 🚀
Take a look at the early https://loops.video while you can, the new v1 experience will be rolling out soon!

Still growing and learning every day.
I know trust/respect is earned, not given - and I'm committed to earning yours by delivering on Pixelfed, Loops, Sup, and being the kind of maintainer our community deserves.
Together we're proving that ethics and humanity can win.
This is just the beginning. 🚀

hey pixelfed users and pixelfed admins - is the "retoot" / "repost" function working for you?
For me it seems not, it doesn't matter which app I'm using or if I'm using the web interface.
I found this closed bug...

A woman in a black coat stands at the base of a massive giant sequoia tree with a hollowed-out, charred trunk. The blackened cavity towers above her, emphasizing the immense scale of the tree. Sunlight filters through a dense forest of tall, reddish-barked sequoias and evergreens, casting a warm glow over the scene. The forest floor is scattered with fallen branches and pine needles.

A question about the things, as you are already open sourcing it (which is great):
Have you considered, moving the #pixelfed project into a foundation like #mastodon @Gargron is doing it?
As you always say it's not for sale anyway, it's maybe a nice idea. Also the other handy services like @fedidb ,loop and so on..
That would give the people even more trust into the Fediverse 🥰

The people should own the town square
It is more important than ever that the social web is not controlled by corporations. Today, Mastodon is taking another step towards its founding ideals: independence and non-profit ownership. We're transferring ownership of key assets to a new European not-for-profit entity, ensuring our mission remains true to a decentralised social web, not corporate control.
I pitched this idea to an ISP I was consulting for last year. A free “linktree” style homepage, available with select domain packages.
This is my Fediverse version where the user can collect all their platforms together, in one place, as well as create one RSS feed for all their latest activity.
#Loops #Pixelfed #PeerTube #Flipboard #WordPress #Mastodon #Fediverse #SocialWeb
Pixelfed (and Mastodon) are increasingly targeted by spammers.
Our current AutoSpam detection using Naive Bayes isn't enough*, so we are building a better detection and mitigation system.
Not only will it leverage (optional) established 3rd party services like SpamHaus, but also threat intel from other trusted "reporter" instances like Pixelfed.social.
It's called https://FediThreat.net, and will be available soon!

Is there an easy way to preview what your profile on mastodon looks like on pixelfed? I'd love to cross compare a known profile before I post more art here.

Loops first release is coming soon, but that doesn't mean I haven't been working on other things, like Pixelfed.
@matlfb and myself have redesigned and refactored the Pixelfed web interface for a better user experience.
It will be available next month ✨

I do respect it and I question myself how you manage to do the shifting from one topic to the next.
I know I have written it before, but what I, as an #pixelfedadmin, really miss,, that you are taking care of your main platform #Pixelfed and the bugs which are open in Github. But you ignore it here and you ignore it on Github. That's really frustrating... Maybe a short comment on the issue would be nice, if that's a bug or if it should be like that.

Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

Hello World!
I just spoke with a #US #Senator office about the #fediverse . They're asking for more information to help spread around #Capital #Hill in small bite sized easy to understand pieces. I'm obviously going to give them @elena beautiful #movie on the #fedi (with some light editing which she's agreed to).
I'll of course show them https://fediverse.info/ and https://fedi.tips/ which are great websites. I figured I'd give them examples of amazing #AP projects such as #mastodon , #pixelfed , #peertube , #bandwagon , and #bonfire ; even things like @admin .
I'd love to know from folks any EASY to understand projects that best encompass the Fediverse and explanations of it.
What are some projects you'd hand to your friends and family that would explain and display to them what we are?
I'll say this isn't going to happen over night. There's lot of questions around regulations, trust & safety, etc. But I feel it's pertinent to at least get the conversation going, especially considering the current state of disdain for big social media and the impending legislation around these things.
I'll finally state if there's anyone in this list that does NOT want to be involved with this, that's totally fine and I understand and I can exclude you from the materials I give to them.

Fedi.Tips – An Unofficial Guide to Mastodon and the Fediverse
An unofficial guide to using Mastodon and the Fediverse
Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

"At the heart of these alternative apps lies the Fediverse platform — a portmanteau of "federated" and "universe" that represents a radical reimagining of how social media can work. Unlike traditional platforms where users are locked into isolated ecosystems, the Fediverse operates as an interconnected network of independent servers that communicate with each other through a standard protocol called #ActivityPub."

A list of Fedi sites that use NON - US Domain extensions, meaning their domain name extension is outside Us Jurisdiction. I have not verified where all these are hosting.
I shared the full current list as of June 9, 2025, here on the Fediverse, but you can also find the list at the URL, which is hosting on a GIT by Code Berg, located in Germany, Europe.
You can also download the current list (June 9, 2025), that I just shared, by downloading the ZIP file attached.

On Dec 5, 2024 I published this blog post https://elenarossini.com/2024/11/the-rebellion-will-be-federated/ on @ele@elenarossini.com
On Dec 17 I signed up for a #VPS.
On Dec 22 I installed #GoToSocial and began personalizing my little corner of the #Fediverse: @elena
On Jan 14 I installed #Pixelfed on my server: @ele@photos.elenarossini.com
Yesterday I installed #LinkStack on https://elena.social
All this feels really empowering and I wanna help others do the same! 🚀

Why Decentralized Social Media Matters
Leaving a social media platform often forces content creators to start over from scratch on a new site. But what if that didn't have to be?

After contemplating for a while on whether to set up an own #Pixelfed instance or not, just go with a separate "photos only" account on my GtS instance ... I stumbled upon this blog post from @box464 about how to #slurp all your photos from Pixelfed to GtS.
https://box464.com/posts/gotosocial-slurp/
This seemed to me like it's the best idea as I never liked this separation of bubbles and having to boost my Pixelfed posts for my followers here to see them.
So, I've used my already setup local Pixelfed instance to import everything from my old Instagram account and then slurped that to here. After that, I've then slurped everything from my pixelfed.social account to here as well. Everything under one roof - I like it.
Also, as mentioned in that blog post, there's @impressia (for iOS) which can give a Pixelfed-like experience with basically any Mastodon-like account.

Importing Pixelfed Posts to GoToSocial with Slurp
Recently, I wanted to migrate my Pixelfed content over to a GoToSocial instance. Enter Slurp, a new CLI tool that’s making this process much easier. Here’s my experience, including some recent updates that streamline the process.

I'm working on a Instagram Import refactor!
It's a huge improvement, here are some highlights:
- One-click "delete existing import" to remove existing imported posts
- Imported posts are now public instead of unlisted
- We now support all media formats (video too)
- Auto import mode
- Optional archived post import
- Optional self comment import
- Optional public story import
- Optional follower discovery
- Optimized backend processing
- Intelligent Incremental Updates

Meta nutzt seit Kurzem eure Daten zum KI-Training. Das bringt viele Nutzer*innen dazu, sich mit Alternativen wie dem Fediverse zu beschäftigen. Was das genau ist und wie es funktioniert, erklären wir hier.

On the one hand, I’m glad that I back up all of my articles on Archive.org. It makes the process of retrieving lost content fairly trivial…
Except, of course, when I’m trying to get media that’s not actually part of the backup, and is just a dead link to a place where it used to be hosted.
I’m scrubbing through Dansup’s post history trying to find specific videos for #Pixelfed articles. It’s maddening.

Nei, #Pixelfed er fortsatt for buggy til at jeg gidder
Slettet begge kontoene jeg har klart å lage og starter evt helt på nytt på en annen europeisk instans når plattformen er mer produksjonsklar.
Folk kan jo uansett følge min Mastodon konto fra Pixelfed, så behovet for en dedikert konto er ikke så stort.
Hello Fedi friends!
Today marks a really special occasion: I’ll be speaking at #JDLL in Lyon as part of the #YunoHost presentation… discussing how I use their amazing #selfhosting tools for #DigitalSovereignty.
It’s hard to believe I had only installed it 158 days ago (according to my Mastodon archive) https://mastodon.social/@_elena/113667636910565210
Thanks to @yunohost I have been able to self-host my own #GoToSocial #Pixelfed #Friendica & #PeerTube instances. I’m incredibly grateful to them ❤️

Attached: 1 image It’s happening!!! I signed up for a #VPS and I’m about to install #YunoHost. Exciteeeeeeed (and slightly scared). I’m so early in my #Linux journey but I was emboldened after watching a video walkthrough of YunoHost, with the narrator repeating time and time again « it’s so easy a child could do it ». Let’s see if « it’s so easy a Linux newbie could do it». Wish me luck! 😅 #mysocalledsudolife

#pixelfedcats <- esp.
Could really do with 'exclude' hashtags, with wildcards, such as -#*kardashian*
Note the 'minus' prefix to denote don't show me posts that contain the tag word 'kardashian' (or in my case, 'cat').
It would mean people who share an interest in X but not in Y, can post & converse constructively on X without spamming on Y and no one would be offended or upset.

I got the coolest domains for Starter Kits, one is a 3 letter domain 🔥
Starter Kits will allow you to build lists of accounts and share them as AP Collections that can be easily imported into Pixelfed or other platforms.
Any accounts added to kits will need to verify each inclusion (via DM) unless they explicitly opt-in via #fedi25 hashtag in bio or via DM.
You can remove yourself from any list or all with one button too, and it will be open source 🚀

#Pixelfed / #BridgyFed question:
Does anybody know why posts (that contain images) from Bluesky profiles that are bridged to the fediverse via Bridgy Fed don't show up in my pixelfed.social feed once I follow them there?
cc: @pixelfed, @anewsocial
I noticed something strange in the Pixelfed app:
All images uploaded through the app are displayed in the app as if the were cropped to a 1:1 aspect ratio (see image 1).
Images of users who probably didn't use the app but the website for the upload are not cropped (see image 2).
In the browser my images are also shown in the original aspect ratio (see image 3).
Is that intended? Did I miss some setting in the app? Is it a bug? Should I file a bug report?

ALT text
Image of a post from the Pixelfed app where the image is displayed as if it was cropped to a 1:1 aspect ratio

ALT text
Image of a post from the Pixelfed app of a different user where the image is displayed in the original aspect ratio.

ALT text
Image of the same post as in image 1 as seen in the Pixelfed website. This time the image is displayed in its original aspect ratio.

is it just me or #pixelfed does not show images from #sharkey / #misskey instances? just noticed recently text-only posts in my feed tagged as photos. i.e. just text, w/o image placeholders, as if pixelfed did not recognize the format of the post.. and original posts actually contained photos, but I didn't see them. 🤔

We have created a new #Mastodon #StarterPack:
13 accounts from #Fediverse projects - that's basically a newsfeed for developments in the #ActivityPub #SocialWeb.
You can follow 9 more accounts (see answer 👇) manually. (The great @fedidevs project currently only supports packages with Mastodon accounts.)

Fediverse / ActivityPub projects - Mastodon Starter Pack
Accounts from and about microblogging, audio, photo and video hosting projects. Since only Mastodon instances are currently supported on fedidevs.com, we could not put the following projects in the package, so follow manually if you like: @akkoma@ihatebeinga.live – @Castopod@podlibre.social – @gotosocial@superseriousbusiness.org – @index@activitypub.ghost.org – @loops@pixelfed.social – @misskey_hub_deploy@misskey.io – @news@forum.friendi.ca – @pinetta@fedi.software – @sharkey@sharkey.team

Sorry for the broken Pixelfed previews on Mastodon and other software, I just fixed this!
We will be tagging a new release with plenty of fixes and support for new media formats like AVIF, HEIC and WebP, along with preserving ICC profiles later this week!
For admins who want to migrate from GD or ImageMagick to Libvips, it will require installing a composer package, but don't fret, I'm going to update https://docs.pixelfed.org to walk you through it.

I'm back to Pixelfed + Loops development!
So incredibly proud of the new https://fedidb.com, it took a week longer than expected, because I had to be extra and add a bunch new graphs 😅
It was worth it though!
Working on another Kickstarter update, man what an awesome feeling it is to blow past your goal in less than 24 hours.
The people want Pixelfed, and that's what they will get 🚀 ❤️

Good morning Fedi friends!
If you've been following my toots for a while, you know how incredibly grateful I am to @yunohost for empowering me to self-host my own fedi instances.
Six months ago I knew nothing about self-hosting. Now, thanks to #YunoHost and the superb tools they offer (for free!), I am running my own #GoToSocial, #Friendica, #Pixelfed and #PeerTube instances. I am a new and improved and more empowered digital citizen thanks to it. I cannot begin to describe the immense gratitude I feel towards YunoHost and its team of volunteers.
Well, today I have a chance to give back (a little). YunoHost has just launched a crowdfunding campaign to cover its operating costs for the rest of the year.
✨ https://yunohost.org/donate.html 🪴
I just donated to it - and if you have the means could you join me in doing so, too? Every euro / dollar / yen counts.
YunoHost has the incredible mission of empowering anyone to self-host their digital services - not just fediverse software, but HUNDREDS of free open source apps.
Needless to say, I want YunoHost to continue operating and to thrive for many many years to come. Its services are ESSENTIAL.
Thank you YunoHost for changing my life and wishing you great success with your fundraising campaign! 💚🪴

Still trying to temporarily disable two factor authentication on my @pixelfed but can’t seem to get ahold of support. 🙁 I just want to add it to my Tapestry (by @Iconfactory) feed!
#drogiefedi od czego zależy czy na #pixelfed obecna jest instancja, z której się korzysta w reszcie Fediwersum? podejrzewam, że to decyzja samej instancji, ale wolę się upewnić u bardziej obeznanych w temacie (@m0bi @stfn @LukaszHorodecki @agturcz)
a jeśli to decyzja instancji to czy ma sens pushować adminów o dodanie połączenia z Pixelfedem czy już łatwiej zmienić/założyć swoją instancję?

Ok...Filters on #Pixelfed seem useless on the global TL allthough i set it to all TL...
Had filter for # aiArt (without the space...just don't want to draw in AiBros in this toot) but first post in global TL had exact that hashtag.
Ok, that is underwhelming.
In Mastodon a filter stays the filter on all TL.
The global TL seen from Pixelfed is just frustrating:
-not more than 20 posts (you can refresh to see new ones, but never older)
- set Filters don't apply
😒

@ele @paige @fedihost P.S.: if you are curious / tempted to self-host and don't know what to expect, especially when it comes to backup sizes, here is the current breakdown* for my #YunoHost-powered instances:
*aka my weekly backup:
#Friendica: 990 MB
#GoToSocial: 3.34 GB
#PeerTube: 2.42 GB
#Pixelfed: 1 GB
have a great day everyone!

Photo d'une personne féminine au centre. Tout autour des photos d'aquarelles qu'elle a réalisées. Univers imaginaire : une souris regardant la lune, une femme dansant dans la brume, des abeilles en quête, un dragon dans le ciel de nuage, des cartes à colorier, un épouvantail dans un champs de tournesol, un renard en boule.
Mini-guia de #Pixelfed
📕 Mini guía de #Pixelfed:
- Pixelfed quiere ser una alternativa libre, descentralizada y sin algoritmo a Instagram, similar a lo que sería Mastodon a X.
- Se basa en ActivityPub y es por tanto compatible con Mastodon: puedes seguir cuentas de Pixelfed desde Mastodon y viceversa.
- Al ser descentralizado al registrarte debes elegir un servidor que encaje con tus necesidades, aunque podrás seguir a usuarios de otros servidores y ellos a ti, cada servidor tiene sus normas y características.
- Al no haber algoritmo esto requiere un trabajo para construir tu timeline: puedes seguir etiquetas con tus intereses y encontrar a quien seguir e igualmente es importante etiquetar tus posts para que la gente te encuentre.
- Aunque es 100% usable se encuentra en fase de desarrollo con algunas características aun por mejorar como la traducción a idiomas diferentes del ingles.
Diferencias respecto a Mastodon:
- No permite posts de solo texto
- Permite mayor cantidad de imágenes en un post (hasta 12) e integra opciones de edición (Crop, filtros)
- Permite añadir información extra a las imágenes: Localización, etiquetar gente, licencia, etc.
- Permite crear álbumes a modo de colección de fotos.
- Permite "stories" qué duran 24h.

here is my todo list for v0.13.0 which I want to release later this month.
- [x] Filters (block hashtags or keywords)
- [ ] 3rd party Push Notifications
- [x] Stories v2 API
- [x] Pinned Posts
- [x] Optional reblogs in home feed
- [ ] Full text search
- [x] New discover APIs
- [ ] Collections v2
- [ ] Places v2 w/ Photo Map
- [x] Mixed media albums
- [ ] Preserve color profiles
- [x] Improved video support
Pixelfed Filters w/ Simple or Advanced mode!
My first iteration was quite complicated, so I turned that into advanced mode and built a wizard to guide you through the process, and I did this without any help from our designers, so expect it to only improve!
Spread the word, pixelfed is getting custom filter support ✨
Custom Filters are now available! 🥳
You can now set keyword filters to blur, warn or hide posts that match, across home + public + hashtag feeds!
These are based on the Mastodon v2 Filters API, and should be compatible with 3rd party apps.
Our official app does not properly handle blur or warn context types, but soon will.

I'm curious, is the recent decline in Fediverse users and activity due to people moving to BlueSky? What other factors might there be?
I'm sure there are ebbs and flows over time. But I do hope the overall trend continues to be upward.

Welcome Fedi Friends to the episode 10 of Fireside Fedi! I’m your host ozoned. Fireside Fedi is a show about folks within the Fediverse. If you’re seeing this, you are a part of the Fediverse. I’m very EXCITED about my guest today. I’m so excited I took a shower, shaved my head and face, wore my BEST t-shirt and shorts, and I even brushed my teeth! TO be fair I do all those things daily and I was out doing yard work earlier and needed a shower, BUT if I hadn’t, I still would have done it for my guest! With me today is Dansup! Dansup is “just a guy from canada building things for the fediverse”. No one big.

TO be fair I do all those things daily and I was out doing yard work earlier and needed a shower, BUT if I hadn’t, I still would have done it for my guest! With me today is Dansup! Dansup is “just a guy from canada building things for the fediverse”. No one big.

GreatApe is a conversations platform for the Fediverse and decentralized social-media (DeSo).
Here is what the GreatApe login screen looks like on a mobile-phone web-browser.
With GreatApe you do NOT have to create a separate GreatApe account.
With GreatApe you use your existing account on Mastodon, Pixelfed, Misskey, or PeerTube to login.

Custom Filters are now available! 🥳
You can now set keyword filters to blur, warn or hide posts that match, across home + public + hashtag feeds!
These are based on the Mastodon v2 Filters API, and should be compatible with 3rd party apps.
Our official app does not properly handle blur or warn context types, but soon will.
How to update your filters on the web:
1) Navigate to your profile
2) Tap "Edit Profile"
3) Tap the "Filters" tab
4) Tap the "Add New Filter" button

Pixelix - A Pixelfed Client

However, assuming we understood the PeerTube docs accurately — we have something very non-ideal happening with it.
It seems as if you have to ask for the PeerTube password. I don't want to do that. But — and again, assuming we understood the PeerTube docs accurately — we don't see an alternative way to do that.
I wonder if PeerTube intends to add OAuth support later.

GreatApe is a conversations platform for the Fediverse and decentralized social-media (DeSo).
I previously mentioned that — you don't have to create an account on GreatApe. That instead you can use your Mastodon, Pixelfed, Misskey, or PeerTube account.
The login with Mastodon, and login with Pixelfed flow are very smooth. And, GreatApe never sees you password.

My short story is:
1) I noticed a toot about #Pixelix (Instagram-like open source project)
2) After some research, I found that the app is written in pure
and uses good architecture practices
3) It took me a few days to run it on iOS
4) I contacted developers and asked if they were interesting to port the app to iOS
5) Now the app was approved and released on the App Store! (the app is open source and paid because it is a kinda donations)

I collect random negatives and photographs I find at thrift stores, antique shops, garage/estate sales and online. (There is no specific topic I focus on... just anything that catches my eye.) Then I scan them, sometimes do some minor restoration (though damage can also add character), and now I'll post some of them here.
It probably goes without saying, but I am not the photographer of anything I post here. In most cases I don't know who the photographer is (or even exactly where/when the photos were taken). I just think it's sad for interesting images to rot away in a box somewhere... or end up in a landfill.
For this image, the photographer, location, and date are all unknown. It was scanned from the original 35mm Kodak Gold 200 film and minor restoration was done (scratch/spot removal).

here is my todo list for v0.13.0 which I want to release later this month.
- [x] Filters (block hashtags or keywords)
- [ ] 3rd party Push Notifications
- [x] Stories v2 API
- [x] Pinned Posts
- [x] Optional reblogs in home feed
- [ ] Full text search
- [x] New discover APIs
- [ ] Collections v2
- [ ] Places v2 w/ Photo Map
- [x] Mixed media albums
- [ ] Preserve color profiles
- [x] Improved video support
Some idle #fedi questions just out of curiosity, none of them really connected
1) Why does #Phanpy load everything faster than when I log in through my instance?
2) I made a #PixelFed account for @rainbowrodeomag. I use the same social media scheduler for my Mastodon account. Same posts. Same content. Same images. But the Pixey account has more interactions. What's up with that?
3) I set up a federated account using Ghost's beta (index[at]rainbowrodemag[dot]com) but I can't find it when I search?
I've already got separate Mastodon and Threads accounts so I'm not planning to rely on this...it seems like it's really Ghost's attempts to create an ecosystem similar to Substack's app without actually building an app (which imo is really smart)
Thanks for your time!
You may notice a large drop in total post counts in the latest Pixelfed version, we have fixed the calculation to no longer include shared posts (which may have previously included remote shares).
The total posts count now properly reflects local posts and comments!
Pixelfed Filters w/ Simple or Advanced mode!
My first iteration was quite complicated, so I turned that into advanced mode and built a wizard to guide you through the process, and I did this without any help from our designers, so expect it to only improve!
Spread the word, pixelfed is getting custom filter support ✨

@macrumors me no want no #meta on me pad. #pixelfed is a better/nicer/opener/freer/noAI alternative
I'd like to know the same. From what I have seen so far, Pixelfed is not a place to keep photo albums, but to keep on posting photos to your feed, as you take them.
afaik, there's no "album" functionality in #pixelfed, that you can use to organize your photos, and view them as themed collections.
Someone, please tell me otherwise.
So the most challenging thing about implementing custom filters is making them easy to use for users, this is just too complicated.
I need to speak with our design team and work on a simple mode, we can keep this for an advanced mode.
Custom Filters are 99% ready, and will be shipping later today 🚀 ✨

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 111 (quiet edition) 💤
Good morning Fedi friends!
I hope you had a nice weekend.
After backing up my two VPSs I am now staring at my #YunoHost dashboard thinking: now what?
It feels a little odd not to have to tackle any pressing self-hosting issues. Everything seems to be working well, including my manual installation of Ghost on a second (Ubuntu) VPS.
I'm now in maintenance mode.
I must confess in the past 24 hours I have spent some time browsing @yunohost 's app catalogue. So many fascinating things in there! But I am exercising restraint (for now, LOL!)
I'm very grateful for all the software I'm currently self-hosting.
On Debian (via YunoHost):
- #Fail2Ban
- #Friendica -> https://elenarossini.fr/profile/ele/
- #GoToSocial (this account!)
- #LinkStack -> https://elena.social
- #Pixelfed -> https://photos.elenarossini.com/ele
On Ubuntu:
- Fail2Ban
- My #Ghost blog/newsletter -> https://news.elenarossini.com
- #Varnish cache
I'm highly aware of my privilege and how lucky I am to be doing all this. But can I confess I'm a little bored? Thankfully I may have another big project on the horizon: upgrading my VPS and installing / self-hosting #PeerTube. But that will be for another week. Resting now and enjoying this sense of empowerment / digital sovereignty. Very grateful to be in this position.
Wishing you all a fantastic week!

My short story is:
1) I noticed a toot about #Pixelix (Instagram-like open source project)
2) After some research, I found that the app is written in pure
and uses good architecture practices
3) It took me a few days to run it on iOS
4) I contacted developers and asked if they were interesting to port the app to iOS
5) Now the app was approved and released on the App Store! (the app is open source and paid because it is a kinda donations)

Pixelix - A Pixelfed Client
Pixelix provides a smooth and intuitive interface for interacting with Pixelfed, the federated image-sharing social network. Designed with user experience in mind, Pixelix makes it simple to connect to your Pixelfed instance, upload photos directly from your device, and browse through your feed with…

I tried to migrate my #pixelfed account a few weeks ago and lost all of my forty something followers in the process. That was frustrating, but I had other things on my mind and there was nothing I could do about it.
Today, curiosity got the better of me and I gave it another try (I didn't have any more followers to lose anyway and YOLO) and took a look at the source. WTF! How can one implement such a critical feature with so little (in other words: no) error handling? 🤯

Made an account for pixelfed.art, but wasn't aware that the instance doesn't support videos. So that's really unfortunate, most of my work includes animations. 🙃
@jeffwbrooktree @lianna #loopsvideo claims to be made by #pixelfed. Not true?

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 104 (pride edition) 👷♀️
Good morning Fedi friends!
Aw pride is a powerful thing.
I'd like to think that I'm pretty zen and detached and successfully suppressing my ego... but when it comes to things I'm passionate about (read: tech, self-hosting) I cannot let things go.
I had a very very sweet shout-out on a Fediverse podcast last week... but said shout-out mentioned my self-hosting issues and that maybe self-hosting isn't for everyone. I felt that I had to correct the record (even if the mention came with the nicest intention)... because I have ZERO issues self-hosting #GoToSocial, #Friendica and #Pixelfed (thanks to the magic of #YunoHost). All my troubles had to do with #Ghost. (And Ghost is wonderful, it's not related to it, just external circumstances).
So, determined to defend my honor (ha!) on Friday I achieved the impossible: all by myself, following guides I found online, I managed to install #Apache and #Varnish on my VPS and connected Varnish to Ghost. My site was already fast, now it's BLAZING fast.
So I'm giving it another go, moving from Ghost (Pro) to my self-hosted Ghost installation. I turned off subscriptions on https://blog.elenarossini.com... next step is disconnecting the subdomain DNS (a CNAME record) from Ghost... and redirecting traffic to my new blog (https://news.elenarossini.com).
I know how to code things in NGINX for the redirect to work (I think, via guides I found online).
My big question is: how do I tweak my old DNS records for https://blog.elenarossini.com so that NGINX on my self-hosted site https://news.elenarossini.com will correctly pick up the traffic requests? Do I need to set up A and AAAA records for the subdomain blog to point to my VPS with the self-hosted Ghost blog? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 🙏
Oh and I learned my lesson and - unlike last time - I am making big changes on a Monday morning, when I have the whole workweek ahead of me (instead of a Friday afternoon 1 hour before picking up my child from nursery school). You live and learn! 😅

A frog is peeking out of the water, hands resting on a lily pad. A higher lily pad shelters it from the soft rain, but a sunbeam seems to have made its way through the clouds, hitting the sad looking frog. The frog is surrounded with blooming water lilies and many other plants, growing in and around the pond contained by red bricks and rocks, all dripping with water, as well as many critters such as snails, slugs and dragonflies. You can almost year the soft sound of rain.

If I were to be more specific, I'd say that my experience with my Debian VPS and #YunoHost is 100/100. I'm hosting #GoToSocial, #Friendica, #Pixelfed and #LinkStack there... Maybe soon #PeerTube (gotta upgrade to a slightly more powerful plan).
My Ubuntu VPS that has #Ghost was a 80/100 most days - which dropped down to 20/100 because of the Mastodon Hug of Death.
Not too bad, I'd say overall 🙃

Pixelfeds Mastodon Api compatibility
Please restore Pixelfeds compatibility with the Mastodon Api so users can connect with apps like Tusky again without errors. I will link relevant issues below.
Alternatively it would also be ok for me if you remove the Api and all mentions of this alleged compatibility from documentation and websites etc, because right now it does not actually exist.
Kind regards,

Oh, great. #Pixelfed had a broken implementation of "follower-only" posts, _and_ fucked up the disclosure / bugfix release process.
https://fokus.cool/2025/03/25/pixelfed-vulnerability.html
Summary of the bug: If you have a protected account (on Pixelfed, Mastodon, GTS, whatever) and a Pixelfed user followed you and got approved by you, _all_ users on that instance were now able to see your followers-only posts, not just the one you approved.

TIL:
When following someone on a different server on the Fediverse, the remote server decides whether you are allowed to do so. This enables features like private accounts. Due to an implementation mistake, Pixelfed ignores this and allows anyone to follow even private accounts on other servers. When a legitimate user from a Pixelfed instance follows you on your locked fediverse account, anyone on that Pixelfed instance can read your private posts. You don’t need to be a Pixelfed user to be affected.Pixelfed admins should update to v1.12.5 ASAP, but upgrading can be a major hurdle.

Leaving my personal history with the project aside for a moment, and also paying respect to the fact that it has been a volunteer-driven community project mainly handled by one single individual (which definitely sets certain boundaries in what's possible): There always has been this stance that "the pixelfed team" can focus on other challenges because "pixelfed is perfect". It isn't. It has never been, and it never will. The difficult nature of the ActivityPub standard adds to this, as does overall complexity of server software in the 2020s, but at the core here, safety, privacy, security is a matter of attitude, professional stance on things and, well, also the will to be humble and open and learning and willing to /see/ ones own limitations, rather than putting a likely-to-be huge load of users at risk. It's bad to see not even staying away from #pixelfed apparently helps here to stay safe. (But yes, at the very core this seems a somewhat unsettling flaw in the very design of the protocol itself.)

If a legitimate user from a Pixelfed instance follows you on your locked account, anyone on that Pixelfed instance can read your private posts.
I wrote a blog post about how I found the vulnerability, how disclosure coordination went and general ramblings about Fediverse safety:

Pixelfed leaks private posts from other Fediverse instances - fiona fokus
Pixelfed before v0.12.5 has a vulnerability where it could leak your private posts, regardless of whether you are a Pixelfed user or not.
Admins should update ASAP.

Good afternoon!
I couldn’t finish Dark mode last night, I got too tired, so I’ll be wrapping it up today!
It looks amazing btw, can’t wait to get this shipped.

Tonight I thought I would migrate my followers over from Pixelfed to my new GoToSocial account, but got an error message saying "Invalid account lookup response" on my PF account.
Before adding a bug, I looked this up on both GtS and Pixelfed Bug Reports and found this on the Pixelfed repo. Looks like it has been open over a year.
Anyone else run into this when migrating from Pixelfed to a non-Pixelfed instance?

I have a Mastodon feature request. Could there please be a specialized emoji for the #XMPP logo? To put it beside one's name? It can draw attention to an XMPP "Chat ID" that one has put in one's Mastodon profile. Similarly, it would make sense to also have emojis for the #Deltachat logo, #Matrix logo, etc. Basically, every other #OpenSource federated network (#Pixelfed? #Peertube?) would likewise deserve an emoji.
This is so that Mastodonians can draw attention to the accounts they have on other #Fediverse servers. It's a visual cue, right by their names, inviting others to tap/click their avatars/names, and have a look at their profile, where further contact info could be presented. It would encourage people to use Federated services more, then display their involvement to others.
🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 89 ✨
Oh #PeerTube, you are making me do mental somersaults as I strategize about the best way to self-host my videos.
This newbie wants to ask: how many VPS’s are too many for someone who has little coding experience and has been self-hosting for just 3 months?
Fedi friends, I’m thinking of signing up for a THIRD VPS 😱
Why?
My current setup:
1️⃣ 5€/month Debian VPS with #YunoHost, where I’m self-hosting #GoToSocial (this account), #Friendica, #Pixelfed, #Fail2Ban and #LinkStack.
2️⃣ 5€/month Ubuntu VPS where I am self-hosting my (upcoming) #Ghost blog (this will make me save a ton, compared to my current Ghost Pro plan).
Back to PeerTube: I could easily upgrade my #Debian VPS and install it there - the costs would be minimal and I would double my RAM and storage. But I am afraid of PeerTube’s consumption when it comes to bandwidth. As in: if I upload a video that for some reason becomes really popular, or if a bad actor decides to DDOS my channel, would that take down all my other self-hosted Fediverse instances? Since they are on the same VPS?
I could limit potential issues by having a dedicated VPS just for PeerTube.
What would you do?
And do you have recommendations for Europe-based VPS’s with affordable plans? (aside from Hostinger) I was thinking of #Hetzner…

Next week I'm beginning a two week hackathon to fix all open bug reports* in Pixelfed.
The goal is simple, solid and stable backend and app so we can move on towards Loops, Sup and more 🚀
* - Account Migrations, IG Import, HEIC + video support, and maybe a few realistic feature requests if possible
Pixelfed DMs are getting a huge makeover!
Group chats, share from feeds, media attachments, realtime presence features and more ✨
Like way more, think PixelTime (video chat) and Sup integration 🚀

Steamy water cradles Alice's bare skin. Fingers press, teasing—dark green nails contrast the soft curves beneath. Colorful bracelets roll up and down their wrist in a slow, indulgent gesture. A blurred tattoo sprawls across Alice's breast like islands across an ocean map. The air is thick with a tropical humidity, carrying the scent of floral bath oils.
@dansup @dansup@pixelfed.social @pixelfed I noticed when I try to share photos directly out of my Gallery app (Fossify) from my AOSP 15 phone, that out of the 4 Pixelfed compatible client apps I have installed, Pixeldroid and Fedilab come out as available options to upload with, but the official Pixelfed app (as well as Pixelix) do not. Anyway to fix this for the official app?

Nope, applied it, didn't change anything.
So the issue is clearly isolated : it's the scheduled task eating all memory every 6 hours before getting oom killed: /usr/bin/php8.4 artisan app:account-post-count-stat-update
Since it eats up 28+ GB of RAM, adding more is not the solution.
Is there a way to limit the memory used by this job without blocking subsequent php processes?
Why did this suddenly occur despite not changing anything on my side? Pixelfed is at 0.12.4 version and was not updated recently on my side.
Thanks! Am I the only one to experience this issue?

Check your contacts to see if they are on Pixelfed, without compromising their privacy, or sharing their info by using the k-Anonymity algo:
- Your address book/contact list stays on your device
- We only send anonymized, partially-hashed data
- k-Anonymity ensures no individual can be identified
- Discovery service operated by the Pixelfed Foundation, and opt-in per user
We would love your feedback!
I'm so thankful for Pixelfed's growing team, we now have designers, app developers, devops and project managers that are working together on some pretty amazing things!
We're thriving together, and I couldn't be happier to delegate roles and control to those more experienced 😁
I know there are some people who think I'm trying to centralize Pixelfed towards my own pixelfed.social instance.
That couldn't be further from the truth, we are working on another flagship in collaboration with a respected EU non-profit entity.
And I'm working on fixing account migration so you can easily migrate your account between servers!
Shoutout to @nlnet for making this happen, they connected us and it will all make sense soon.
Stay tuned 🚀

A few days ago, I tooted a question about #Pixelfed and the main server.
https://beige.party/@PixysJourney/114124620319404433
I read that, in time, the pixelfed.social server will end its service? Is this true?
And if it's true, can we take out whole account (so including collections and images) to a new server without issues?
As I've been sharing quite a bit since I've joined over a year ago...
Could anyone give me some useful information regarding this?
Thanks in advance! 
beige.party
:neuro: Pixy's Journey :v_bi: (@PixysJourney@beige.party)
Question to #Pixelfed :pixelfed: folks, especially @pixelfed@mastodon.social I've read a few times now, that the first Pixelfed instance, the social one, may be ended after some time... As that's the one I've been on for over a year, and I've been sharing quite a bit... Will I lose it all?? When you transfer to another Mastodon instance, you lose all the toots. When it's time to find a new instance for Pixelfed, will there be a way to take l the snaps with me to the new account?? I have several collections. I have over 1.6k snaps online at the moment. I understand that it's a lot. Also to take on for a new instance, as I'll probably not be the only one to want to transfer all my snaps with me (if that's possible). So.... Will it be possible? And is there any time frame known as to when this big migration will be expected to have to happen? Sorry for all the questions. But I've spend a lot of time and effort on building my Pixelfed presence and I would hate to lose it all someday.... Thanks in advance for your answers!! Keep on sharing the lovely snaps! :pixelfed: #Pixelfed #DareToAsk

Message for #Pixelfed admins
Do any of you encounter the following? Every 6 hours and consistently, my pixelfed server goes into a high memory usage, process is php-fpm triggered by pixelfed, before being killed by oom. Clearly a bot, never happened before.
Now I changed server with a full fresh install and new IP but it still goes on (even changed OS from 22.04 to 24.04, bumped RAM from 16 to 32 GB and php8.3 version to 8.4).
Do you administrators see similar behavior? See attached Grafana/Prometheus dashboard for illustration on a 24-hours period.
Any clue on how to mitigate such DoS attacks?
Can't see my own likes or bookmarks from the mobile web UI or the mobile app. I would like to be able to browse through them.
Can't see collections either (including my own) from the mobile web UI.
Still not exactly sure what archived posts are supposed to be and I can't manage them from the mobile UI either.
Notifications are messy and it's even hard to know when you receive a DM. (I used DMs to message my instance administrator when we encountered a bug)
We successfully raised over $133,500 in our Kickstarter campaign! 🥳

I find following Lemmy discussions from Mastodon easy on desktop, though it involves a lot of copy-pasting. On mobile, it's even more frustrating.
Interoperability is great, but it would be much more convenient if we could fully use the Lemmy or Pixelfed interfaces with just a Mastodon account. Right now, it still feels like having a separate account is necessary to access the full feature set and user experience.

Fediverse. Do you capitalize it?
Seems like it should always be capitalized, because it’s a proper noun. But lowercase seems a little rebellious, which aligns with its culture.
It’s seen both ways, even in official places. Wikipedia always capitalizes it, editorially. Mastodon doesn’t. Neither does Pixelfed. PeerTube does it randomly, sometimes differently on the same page.
- Fediverse14 (45%)
- fediverse7 (23%)
- Both because I can’t ever make up my mind10 (32%)
There are only a few hours left until the end of the #Pixelfed and #Loops Kickstarter campaign by @dansup. If we want more ethical, private and secure social networks that are part of the #Fediverse and based on open source technologies, please consider supporting this initiative. I've already made my small contribution! 😊

The growth of pixelfed and the overall integration of the decentralized web.
There is a rumor that this time, we will have #Pixelfed in attendance, right @pixelfed?

Cleaner, customizable, and coming soon!
The @pixelfed app keeps getting better and better.
And yes, Collections and Stories are coming to the app in a big way.
Think Pinterest for Collections and Snapchat for Stories.
These aren't new features, they've been on the web for years, we're just now giving them proper official app support 🚀
#Frage an das #Fediverse und #Followerpower: Wie schaffe ich es, dass in meinem #Mastodon Profil das verlinkte #Pixelfed Profil ebenfalls grün (verifiziert) dargestellt wird? Ich meine, ich hatte das vorhin mal so am laufen, beim Aktualisieren meines Profils ist das aber irgendwie rausgeflogen.

The folks of #mastodon, I have a problem.
So, I use the @pxlmo instance for my #pixelfed account ➡️ @javalps@pxlmo.com .
When I visit the #indianteenagers and #indianfood hashtag using both the official @pixelfed and @Pixelix app on #android, I get the following :

Eine Frage an die #fediverse Profis:
In pixelfed.social erscheinen alle Beiträge mit Fotos aus einem Mastodon Account, auch ohne das man bei pixelfed angemeldet ist.
Wenn man also einen Mastodon Account nutzt, welchen Vorteil hätte dann ein zusätzlicher pixelfed Account? Man erreicht die Plattform ja schon.

Hab ich das geträumt oder konnte man in der #Pixelfed App nicht letztens noch die Bilder zuschneiden und Filter benutzen? 🤔
Edit: Es gibt da einen Schalte "enable media editor", aber wenn ich den aktiviere, passiert nichts.
Edit II: Auf der Website geht es, aber in der App nicht.
(bitte nicht schreiben, dass man doch keine Filter braucht, das ist ja nicht die Frage 😬)
Good morning Fedi friends!
I started the week in the best possible way: lunch with two @yunohost team members. I was trying hard not to fangirl too much 🤗
I thanked them profusely for their incredible work, empowering us all with the tools to self-host. It's thanks to #YunoHost that I have my own #Pixelfed, #GoToSocial and #Friendica accounts. I hope I'll be able to give back one day.
What else? This week I'll publish part 1 of a mini-series about #PeerTube.
Wishing you all a lovely day!

a photo of the stickers A. gave me as a present. It's a bunch of YunoHost stickers (black background, white logo) on a wooden table, along with an LGBTQIA+ support sticker, one with a raccoon dressed as a magician that reads "I pay my own bills I can cuss all I want" and a badger (I think) with the text "always screaming"

Last night I pushed some super basic custom CSS to my photo-focused GoToSocial profile @kamera@haugenh.us. While it's no Pixelfed, I like the simplicity of GtS.
- Gallery: https://fedi.haugenh.us/@kamera
To any considering running a personal fediverse instance, I highly recommend checking out GoToSocial. Don't be fooled by it's simplicity, it also gives control in a way no other fediverse platform I've tried has done, including interaction controls, control over post visibility – on ActivityPub as well as the web and RSS feeds – post importing and backdating, and of course custom CSS at both instance and profile levels.
Getting things up an running was easy for me due in large part to the fantastically motivated GtS community. Especially helpful for me were:

A screenshot of a web browser viewing a photo gallery in two columns. Each individual post has its photos grouped together in a flexible grid layout. While it is not a truly masonry layout, it does not have the regular tiling of fixed grids. For alt text of the images in the pictured gallery, simply visit the gallery at https://fedi.haugenh.us/@kamera

ALT text
The same gallery as in the other image, but with the browser window width narrowed to show the responsive layout. In this view there is one column with the post/photo grouping remaining unchanged.

I've been slowly on boarding some friends onto a personal #pixelfed instance, but it's been really disappointing how difficult it is to login to a custom server with the official app.
1. Don't click the login button! Select settings in the corner
2. Turn on "Allow custom server"
3. Open list of servers
4. Scroll to the bottom and select "other"
5. Now tap login
6. Ignore the presented list and search, click "login with custom server"
7. Enter in your URL and click login

ALT text
Pixelfed settings screen just off the welcome screen with API permissions toggles and a toggle for allowing custom servers.

ALT text
A list of suggested URLs that Pixelfed shows you when you tap the server drop down. All the way at the bottom is the option "other".

ALT text
The select "other" custom server screen. There is a button titled "Tap here to login with a custom server" followed by a search able list of servers with their banners next to them.

Just 1 day ago, we added #Crowdin to #Pixelix to support more languages, and I never expected you guys to translate so fast and into so many languages already! 🥳
With five languages (German 🇩🇪, French 🇫🇷, Italian 🇮🇹, Czech 🇨🇿, and Ukrainian 🇺🇦) fully translated and Spanish at 19%, the upcoming update will introduce several new languages to the app.
Kudos to all the translators involved! 🥳🙌
The translated languages will be released in the next update.

Pixelix provides a smooth and intuitive interface for interacting with Pixelfed, the federated image-sharing social network. Designed with user experience in mind, Pixelix …
What's the idea of reblogs in #Pixelfed? They show up in the home feed but they don't show up in the profile.
If I look at a Pixelfed account from Mastodon, I see the reblogs, if I look at it on Pixelfed, I don't.
I think it is really irritating for the users to have that feature of reposting, but then not seeing the reposts on their own account.

@atomicpoet @fediverse TBH I think a lot of people (including me) have a very sketchy idea of how the different bits of the Fediverse link together... I'm still a bit vague about how my #Mastodon and #Pixelfed accounts could work better together.
There's a lot of *assumed knowledge* about the #Fediverse ... and people don't want to ask 'stupid' questions because they don't want to 'look stupid'. There needs to be easily accessible and explicit step by step instructions *to get people started*.
Where could I find a group about #ux or #humancentredesign for example? Or #photography ?

Importing Pixelfed Posts to GoToSocial with Slurp
Recently, I wanted to migrate my Pixelfed content over to a GoToSocial instance. Enter Slurp, a new CLI tool that’s making this process much easier. Here’s my experience, including some recent updates that streamline the process.
Tonight, on John Oliver's Last Week Tonight, #Mastodon and #PixelFed got a call out for not falling in line with Trump and as an alternative to Meta products.

Here’s screenshots of all four photo-based #Piefed communities I’m running.
Now if these posts look familiar, that’s because I’m posting them from #Akkoma and #Pixelfed – and they’re submitted to Piefed by tagging the relevant communities.
This is what I mean when I say that people on #Lemmy are seeing something drastically different from what you’re seeing on #Mastodon.

せっかく写真を始めたので、写真関係のSNSを検討しているが、やっぱり #Fediverse を活用しないとと思い、写真・動画のFediverse機能のSNS" #Pixelfed "にアカウントを作ることを検討している。
時々、Pixelfedユーザから「いいね」を押される時がある。
下記のリンクにPixelfedのやり方を詳しく解説している。
ただ、要注意なのは、Pixelfedの日本語サーバは一つか二つしかない状況。
海外のサーバに作ろうかなぁ。
日本語サーバが反差別かどうかわからないし。

"Photographers especially are enjoying the Pixelfed, calling it a "breath of fresh air".

The Best Instagram Alternatives If You're Sick of Meta
Instagram is a force of nature, but it's not the only social network out there. If you're tired of using Instagram for any reason, you'll find many alternatives focused on photo sharing, messaging, and real connection.
I’ve created four new #Piefed photo-based communities. They are:
I’ll mostly be using these communities to post photos from #Akkoma and #Pixelfed. Not only will they categorize these photos in a coherent manner, they’ll be open for other contributors, and also be easy to moderate.
Why not use hashtags instead? Simple: anyone can use a hashtag and no one can moderate them. Which means they’re easy to spam.
For my purposes, groups are simply better.

Great job man, great job!
Could be worthwhile to check out what @Interledger is doing and/or maybe even get in contact with them?
If they can provide some safe and secure means to donate to Pixelfed in the future I think it could interesting.
I am not associated with them, I just like what they are doing :).
Keep it up dansup ☺️✊🏻
Pixelfed rocks!
slurp can now import your pixelfed-statuses.json to a GoToSocial server and save your photos locally in the process, provided your original Pixelfed server and account are still available to provide the photos.

I det siste har jeg brukt endel tid på å teste produkter som gjør det enklere å hoste tjenester hjemme. Såkalt "self hoste". #Cloudron virker til å være særdeles modent og solid. Gjenstår og teste backup og restore.
Men enkel og sikker hosting av #Mastodon, #Pixelfed, #Matrix, #Nextcloud, Actual Budget, #Immich og mye mer har jeg ikke sett maken til.
Pling meg om du har spørsmål. Jeg er solgt.
Så:
* Kjøp en minipc og et domene.
* Installer Ubuntu.
* Installer og kjøp Cloudron.
* Takk meg

Good morning Fedi friends!
Today marks the 2-month anniversary of my #selfhosting journey: on Dec 17 I signed up for a VPS and installed #YunoHost https://mastodon.social/@_elena/113667636910565210
I have never felt more empowered, tech-wise, than in the past two months. I set up my own #GoToSocial, #Pixelfed and #Friendica instances. Seeing the label "admin" next to my name always makes me smile.
Today I will sign up for a 2nd VPS (that runs on Ubuntu) and manually install #Ghost. Wish me luck!

Attached: 1 image It’s happening!!! I signed up for a #VPS and I’m about to install #YunoHost. Exciteeeeeeed (and slightly scared). I’m so early in my #Linux journey but I was emboldened after watching a video walkthrough of YunoHost, with the narrator repeating time and time again « it’s so easy a child could do it ». Let’s see if « it’s so easy a Linux newbie could do it». Wish me luck! 😅 #mysocalledsudolife

I started following the hashtag #analogphotography on #pixelfed and my feed there got so much better, impressed how many good photographers are actually continually posting there these days
I'm at @wakest on
if you wanna follow me over there, or also you can just follows *this* account over there too but you'll get less photos and more screenshots of bugs and CSS glitches

We are making good progress with refactoring Instagram Import to support archives of any age.
The reason we had to temporarily disable it is because Instagram has been purposely changing the schema of exports to make it more difficult for us to process.
We are leveraging some clever techniques to determine the schema for every archive, and look forward to shipping this early next week!

I wanted to try out Pixelfed, and when signing up used the "sign in with Mastodon" option, thinking maybe it would link my accounts. But it doesn't appear to have done that - posts I do on one do not appear on the other. Did I miss something when signing in to Pixelfed? Anyone else experience this and find a fix? [All that aside, Pixelfed is really nice for pictures. Looks kind of like Insta, but I like that on the web the pics show up quite large]. #pixelfed #mastodon
I have put together a very rudimentary version of a Lightroom plugin to export directly to @pixelfed Give it a try and leave me some feedback. Feel free to boost it so that a few people who use Lightroom and Pixelfed will see it.

Das wird schon von vielen bekannten Gesichtern unterstützt, u.a. von Mark-Uwe Kling, der das hier erklärt:

Unterstützen kann man es u.a. durch Mitwirken in der Petition:

Es gibt eine schöne Initiative für dezentrale und offene soziale Netzwerke, mal zur Abwechslung nicht aus der Nerdecke ;)
Das wird schon von vielen bekannten Gesichtern unterstützt, u.a. von Mark-Uwe Kling, der das hier erklärt:

Unterstützen kann man es u.a. durch Mitwirken in der Petition:

This time last year, New Social looked very different to what it does now.
It's amazing to think about what a small group of hard-working people can do. From Mastodon to Pixelfed, Bluesky to Ghost, and all the many amazing projects both big and small! Every connected platform has pushed the boundaries of open social media and the Fediverse.
Now, let's push a few more boundaries. What do you say? 😈

A really great thing about #pixelfed and #fediverse is that (I realized) I don’t even need to create a new account for Pixelfed. I can just post here and Pixelfed people can see my photos just fine.
More on my recent fuss with #pixelfed: After being blocked by their official Mastodon account yesterday, I just a few moments ago left a post there stating this fact and explaining that I won't keep using or recommending pixelfed anymore until this is somehow settled, we're here now:
My pixelfed.social account is either blocked or gone. I can't log in anymore, and my crawler script that used the (public) view of pixelfed to even download my pictures from there is running in errors.
Like I stated there: I'm not angry. Just disappointed beyond belief. I've been on pixelfed ever since 2018, communicated a lot of more or less pressing issues in their (often, then and now) broken federation with other systems, their still utterly broken handling of comments, ... . I think I've always remained constructive andd mannered in my wording but maybe I'm wrong here, communication usually is what is being received not what is being sent. Still, this kind of behaviour is new to me on the Fediverse. It is an odd example of how things should probably not be, and it just emphasizes what I recommended "over there": Stay away from pixelfed for now. At the very least, stay away from pixelfed.social. And I hate to say that but here we are.😔
Friendly reminder, if you delete your account, it is permanent.
We cannot recover any data, but we can reclaim the username to use again.
According to #Pixelfed founder & lead developer Daniel Supernault, a number of new & improved moderation features will be rolling out later this month for the open source #fediverse photosharing platform.
As is typical for any fast-growing social network—especially one with a distinct ActivityPub-powered visual flavor—users have been vocal about the need for advanced content moderation and the ability to enforce safety rules (contrasted with its commercial competition).

Attached: 1 image 🇬🇧 It is a funny coincidence that after my several criticism of #pixelfed and posting on my pixelfed account following screenshot, some minutes later my account from pixelfed did disappear. Another proof that the service and its author are just immature as hell. And its fine, great job @welshpixie on detecting the toxic people. The thing is that the guy had to react very emotionally without even having proper mechanism in place - I am still logged to the platform but nothing works ;) Adeu :)

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 55 ✨
Monday morning, which means: backing up my #YunoHost setup. This backup file was 5.5GB, which breaks down like this (from biggest to smallest):
- #GoToSocial: 3.3GB
- #GhostIO: 1GB
- #Pixelfed: 700MB
- #Friendica: 237MB
- #LinkStack: 91MB
I'm really tempted to remove the bridge to #Bluesky. Why? I don't see its utility, I still have people following me on Bluesky but not here (despite clear instructions and the fact I don't post there)... and in general I'm #TeamFedi all the way. Especially after reading @cwebber's brilliant analysis of Bluesky / ATProto: https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/
I feel a bit awkward saying this because there are many wonderful Fediverse champions who are equally enthusiastic about Bluesky and want it to succeed in parallel to the Fediverse. But my heart is not in it and I'm feeling very skeptical, crypto bro financing and all. When I think of Bluesky, I can't help but think of the fable of the Scorpion and the Frog.
Also: I'm curious to see if my GoToSocial backup file will decrease in size once I remove the bridge. Pre-bridge the backup file was teeny tiny.
Thoughts? Do you have Bluesky people following you via the bridge / do you find it useful?

Hi all!
I'm having a bit of trouble understanding the interaction between #mastodon and #pixelfed especially following the common login procedure described on this page https://pixelfed.blog/p/2023/feature/introducing-sign-in-with-mastodon-streamlining-sign-up-and-login-on-pixelfed which would work fine for me.

Ich hab mir jetzt nen #pixelfed Account gemacht (@fiaskogaul@pixelfed.de) weil ich den Funktionsunfang und das Userinterface für #Bilder besser finde und nutzen will.
Ich weiß aber noch nicht so richtig wie ich die beiden #fediverse Accounts #coexistieren lassen soll.
Ich will die Bilder und Videos, die ich über Pixelfed poste über meinen #Mastodon Account auf Freiburg.Social auch ausgeben.
Wie macht man das am Besten? Gibt es da eine #bestpractices?
Mein Plan war erst mal meine Pixelfed-Postings zu #Boosten. #Crossposting will ich eigentlich vermeiden.

Kann es sein, dass das von der App abhängt?
Gerade habe ich mal 3 Hashtags in Impressia und Pixelfed probiert: in Pixelfed (iOS) kam tatsächlich kein einziges Bild, obwohl in der Übersicht „35 k“ angezeigt wurde.
In Impressia wurden beim selben Hashtag so ca. 30 Bilder anzeigt – dann war Ende. Konnte dann aber unter einem Foto einen anderen Hashtag anklicken und es wurden wieder ca. 30 Bilder angezeigt, bis die Liste zu ende war.
The new in app registration is a hit! #pixelfed

Now for making Pixelix available on iOS we have to invest almost all of our profits we ever made from the app into hardware equipment, meaning we got not much back for our hard work. That is not really sustainable. We are currently still experimenting on how to make open source software development sustainable but as we figured that is a widespread problem which is not so easy to solve. (4/4) ->

We are working on something pretty exciting. We want to bring Pixelix to Apple devices! Exactly the same app with same functionality, same design and running natively on iOS (Made possible by Kotlin Multiplatform for those who know).

I really appreciate what #pixelfed is doing for growing the #fediverse but the lead dev starting some petty beef with #mastodon and publicly proclaiming himself to be a “genius” for obfuscating server selection in signup is straight up toxic crap we do not need.
We Linux nerds really need social skills and media training.

I’m getting worried about #pixelfed.
Raising money without a roadmap - fine.
Lead dev just throwing out ideas for next projects that the money was not for (then deleting the post when there was backlash) - red flag. Also seems like a lot of ego in there.
We should not idealize platforms and people - rather we should look at what we see and ask ourselves if we actually like what is happening.
Especially when it involves one of the biggest projects in the #fediverse.
Hope my worry is unfounded

Myślę, że to dziwne, że twórcy #Pixelfed, powstającego w kontrze do korporacyjnych social mediów, zupełnie ignorują użytkowników, którzy chcieliby zainstalować ich aplikację bez korzystania ze sklepu Google.
Apki Pixelfeda ciągle nie ma w głównym repozytorium F-Droid, a ich własne repo ostatni raz było zaktualizowane 2 października.
Na szczęście są #PixelDroid i #Pixelix.
The next Pixelfed app build has been submitted and is pending review, here is the changelog:
- Added in-app registration
- Added double tap to like
- Added oAuth scope options
- Added share intents
- Improved error handling
- Fixed pinch to zoom on carousels
- Improved like state across screens
- Several bug fixes and performance improvements
Hm, the Pixelfed dev blocked me. Which is fine, I encourage everyone to block me so that one day I can achieve my dream of posting into the void.
But, I don't think I've interacted with them ever, so that's a bit odd.
Ce mois de janvier 2025 aura été impressionnant pour https://pixelfed.fr !
5191 personnes s'y sont inscrites.
Le nombre d'utilisateurs est ainsi passé de 3252 à 8443.
Soit un évolution de 260%.
Elle est devenue la 8ème instance #Pixelfed la plus importante en nombre d'inscrits, la 4ème instance Pixelfed en nombre d'utilisateurs actifs, et la 27ème de tout le Fediverse en utilisateurs actifs.
La tendance est à l’accalmie depuis quelques jours.

Fun fact: The Fediverse's roots trace back to Canada in 2008 with Laconica (created by @evan) which later became GNU/Social.
Fast forward 17 years, and history repeats itself - Pixelfed.social, now the most active Fediverse server, is proudly Canadian-made. 🇨🇦
I wanted to make a rant about my futile efforts trying to bring my friends to #pixelfed but instead I understood a hard truth: what we are fighting with open social is having a #choice . They can and will stay in the walled garden of Meta's #socialmedia networks and that's ok, it's their choice. Sucks for me that I will be alienated from that connection but it's not my place to decide or impose what platforms they should be using regardless of how good/bad they might be. All I can do is create healthy conversations about options.
It will suck to lose contact with so many old friends and acquaintances but so be it, so is life.
Du coup je teste les interactions, je vois que Mitra reprend le principe de Pleroma qui permet de mettre plusieurs réactions a une même publication :
- déjà petit problème avec Pixelfed, les réactions ne sont pas convertie en Like/favoris visiblement
- fonctionne presque entièrement avec Hollo, la première réaction et le Like/favoris fonctionne et sont distinct, mais la deuxième réaction n'est pas prise en charge)
#Mitra #Hollo #Pixelfed #Fediverse
Is it redundant to have both a #Mastodon and a #Friendica account? How about a third #Pixelfed account?

But I’ve been sitting on a big catalog of photos, all which I’ve been dying to share, yet with no suitable place to share them.
#Instagram used to be that place but its original purpose of sharing art has long been gone. But now something has finally taken its place.

Of public interest:
At least 15,000 people fully, without limits, irrevocably, licensed their personal information, public image, name and all data that reached loops.video infrastructure... to @dansup@mastodon.social 's loops.video platform.
Had they known they're entirely losing control of everything, would they be using the platform?
Explanation in the renote, and here:

Is this what we, as a #society, want?

Daniel Supernault (@dansup@mastodon.social) bragging about his loops.video platform crossing 15000 users.
How about no?
You're way overstepping with this, poisoning the entire ActivityPub ecosystem.
Let me break this down for you...
https://bajsicki.com/blog/loops-video-terms/
In short: if you really intend to federate, respect your users and their data.
Implementing federation while keeping these terms is a severe breach of trust, and would poison the entirety of the network in an way which will cripple ActivityPub, and undermine the very foundation of what AP stands for with regard to privacy, data ownership, and control over what we post to the network.
Hopefully that's not your intention. Is it?

Regardless of what happens with TikTok, I'm still focused on shipping https://loops.video to the world, and open sourcing the entire platform! History has proven that technology like this is best used when the people have control, and can build their own communities. #LongLiveLoops
📣 Happy #GlobalSwitchDay to all the brave frontrunners out there!
For whom February 1st came a little too soon, don't worry! Just try again on March 1st and celebrate Zero Discrimination Day in the beautiful #fediverse. Alternatively, you can switch on April 1st, as only fools stay behind ;) or join your friends on May 1st and put your ideals to work.
Help spread the word.

It wasn’t so long ago that #Mastodon made up 90% of MAUs on the #Fediverse. Hell, it so dominated Fediverse usage that, for most people, Mastodon was the Fediverse.
But now Mastodon’s percentage of MAUs stands at 58%. And it’s probably lower because the second most popular Fediverse software distribution, #Misskey, doesn’t accurately report MAUs. So what happened?
I suspect four things:
- Mastodon validated the concept of a Fediverse, which prompted more devs to build for #ActivityPub
- As Big Social alienated their userbase, some of this userbase sought Fediverse alternatives. This is what drove popularity of #Lemmy and #Pixelfed.
- #Bluesky became the default alternative to #Twitter instead of Mastodon
- As Mastodon users became aware of a greater Fediverse, many migrated to other Fediverse software
Obviously, Mastodon is alive and kicking. It’s not going anywhere. Its continuing development is critical to the success of the Fediverse.
But at the same time, the success of Mastodon led to the success of other federated projects. And it works the other way around too. The success of other federated projects is also Mastodon’s success.
So really, lower MAUs for Mastodon is actually a giant win for the big pachyderm.

You can post to The Fedi Forum directly from your own Fediverse account (or register directly on the forum). You can also follow categories to keep up-to-date. A fantastic community support service.
Read more here: https://thefedi.wiki/forum
We have over twenty categories, including: #Mastodon #Sharkey #Misskey #GoToSocial #PixelFed #Friendica #Vernissage. Full list at the bottom of the article in the Wiki.
Forums are a perfect way to gain/offer support, and the knowledge is retained and searchable -- rather than a discord style channel where it all disappears in a random assortment of messages.

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 48 ✨
Yesterday when I got back from #FOSDEM I found an email in my inbox that gave me a mini-heart attack: a message from my VPS hosting company saying my service had been suspended for running over costs / my card being declined.
The email looked absolutely legit, formatting and branding-wise. But I'm not a fool! I didn't click on any links, just closed it and logged onto my VPS account from another device. I checked billings and resource usage and everything was normal. Ouf. So it was a targeted phishing attack (someone who went through the trouble of looking up my hosting company and finding my contact email address, right when I was traveling and publicly posting from FOSDEM).
Nice try scammer! But you didn't fool me.
Thing is, realistically speaking I could have consumed too many resources. I'm at 75% RAM usage now. As soon as I stop paying for a Ghost(Pro) plan next month, I will upgrade my VPS. And please prevent me from adding another Fediverse app, I'm SOOO tempted to self-host #Friendica too, after re-falling in love with it during a demo at #SocialWebFosdem.
Anyway, today I hit a milestone of sorts: my first experience updating #YunoHost AND 3 different apps (#Fail2Ban #Pixelfed and #GhostIO). Everything went smoothly and my system diagnostics dashboard is all green – just as I like it.
This self-hosting journey is really empowering and the best antidote to my frustration/rage towards Big Tech oligarchs. You can't control my Fedi homes!

AI generated posts are getting reported, so I think we need to adopt a new strategy to allow to users to self tag AI content, and allow everyone to filter that out from their feeds with a single setting.
If users don't self tag AI, they will get a warning, and multiple violations may lead to suspension.

Today at a #NIEWIEDERISTJETZT #protest in #nurnberg I was handed a flyer explaining about the fediverse. I did not shame users and rambled only a little about billionaires and algorithms. It explained decentralized servers and some of the benefits and also had a small how-to-fedi in it.
It was as complete with links to a (local) #mastodon , #pixelfed and #friendica instances.
Whoever did this. Well done and what a great way to disseminate information.
