  Convergence (2009)

• View post

  One last post before bed, been a wildly productive night btw, so I'm working on a new FEP for Stories! Stories are not just ephemerial posts that get deleted after 24h, they can also contain interactive layers (like mentions, hashtags, polls, urls) that require support across UI and federation. We also send StoryView activities to inform the author about who viewed it, and it works great. Replies are DMs that show the Story and "x replied to your story". More deets soon!

  Close Friends are a vibe, the people you want to share exclusively with. But what if you could share posts and Stories only visible to them? Wouldn't that be neat. 👀 #pixelfed #friends #pixelfedFriends #closeFriends #pixelfedCloseFriends

  When you browse hashtags on Pixelfed, we show you related hashtags that you can browse with one tap. That's just one aspect that sets Pixelfed apart from other platforms. #pixelfed #beyondExpectations

  Imagine having control of https://Pixelfed.social, https://Loops.video, https://FediDB.com and https://Fediverse.info. You could build ethical discovery and personalization, make it effortless for people to join and engage, and offer them a better server to migrate to whenever they're ready. Loops is building LOLA full account migration right now. Pixelfed is next. #pixelfed #loops #lola #accountMigration

  Sup. was rejected from NLnet, but I understand because they like to fund one type of project in a space to be able to support other types of projects. That won't stop me from building it though, and it will be subsidized from the donations to Pixelfed and Loops. I know its just a concept now, but it will be rolling out to Pixelfed and Loops in the next month! Follow @supapp for updates! #sup #supMessenger

  The whole Pixelfed AI fiasco had nothing to do with me using AI, it was about 3rd party contributors. When your at this level, you don't need AI, it only gets in your way. So back in 2023, I shipped a Naive Bayes spam classifier in Pixelfed that worked well to detect spam posts, I'm only bringing this up because these accusations of AI use are pretty ignorant, and clearly ignore the years of progress before LLMs could code. https://pixelfed.blog/p/2023/feature/autospam-and-naive-bayes...

  Sup. the fediverse messenger is modular, and will support Matrix, Discord, Signal and other providers, allowing you to manage all your conversations easily, and with fine grained notifications, with one app. And the entire Sup. platform will be open source, and will target F-Droid and Altstore releases too! It's basically everything you ever wanted from a mobile messenger, and keyword: mobile. The package system will enable total control + endless connection adapter possibilities 💅 🚀 😉 #...

  So why Sup? Why isn't this just in Pixelfed or Loops? Well, I did that first, and now Pixelfeds new mobile app will have a first class Group Chat feature, but, being able to connect multiple accounts in one messenger app is what people want. I'm in a unique position to be able to integrate this into my two popular platforms, Pixelfed and Loops, and work with other projects to bring E2EE Chats to everyone! #sup #supMessenger #supByPixelfed

  sup. The fediverse messenger is back in development. It will be integrated into Pixelfed and Loops, with open APIs that other projects can take advantage of. Think Facebook Messenger or Whatsapp, but for the fediverse, with your existing Pixelfed, Mastodon, Loops and GotoSocial accounts. E2EE. Group Chats. Video Group Chats. + much more. #soon

  I’m so proud of the new v4 Pixelfed mobile app, I wrote 4 custom expo modules (Kotlin for Android and Swift for iOS) to handle a few unique features like on device language translations and the ability to select from multiple app icons. The media optimizer module was the hardest, and you won’t even tell, but it handles resizing media to the formats and size limits of your server without you even knowing. It’s details like this that separate your project to become the second biggest by MAU 🚀

  I'm on my 4th major redesign of the @pixelfed@mastodon.social mobile app, and I couldn't be happier with the twrnc UI library, which is basically tailwind for react native. It's fast, clean and consistent. Nativebase and tamagui just were not it for us. History: Pixelfed App v1: nativebase (2023) Pixelfed App v2: nativebase (2024) Pixelfed App v3: tamagui (2025) Pixelfed App v4: twrnc (2026) #pixelfed #pixelfedApp

  It just so happens that FediForum will take place as the new Pixelfed mobile app rolls out. What a happy coincidence 💅 #pixelfed #fediForum

  Pixelfed is not for sale. It never was. I've turned down 6 and 7 figure offers, and I'd do it again tomorrow. Some things matter more than a beach and a Peach Bellini. We're building something generational here. Something that outlives us if we get it right. 100M+ people. Ethically sustainable. Admins and creators get paid. You deserve better, and we're going to build it together. #activityPub #fediverse #together #notForSale

  I've made a few mistakes, but I've held myself accountable, publicly, and I think I've done a pretty good job demonstrating this over the past year and a half. We're on a mission to free billions of people from abusive and malicious platforms, and it's fundamental that we use the resources we have here to work together and provide a better home for them. We all have egos, and I love how I can respond to the harshest criticism with respect and a goal to fix the problem, and...

  I know I'm not everyone's favorite, and I won't pretend otherwise. But I show up every day to build better, open platforms for humanity, and I listen to our community. We're all on the same team, and we shouldn't forget that ❤️

  Pixelfed has been using the MastoAPI since 2019, and while it allowed us to support Mastodon clients, now we have our own app, we've added a query param `_pe` that we use in our webUI and mobile app to return a more optimized resource shape, while preserving the Mastodon structure. Even though we're at the stage where we could deprecate the MastoAPI, we understand that many people enjoy using Mastodon clients, so we will continue to support it. Long live open APIs 🚀

  Just finished another review of the new @pixelfed@mastodon.social mobile app, and fixed a few bugs. I think it's finally ready for the beta release! There are now dozens of settings you can easily manage to customize your experience. Here are a few of the Content Preference Settings: #pixelfed #pixelfedApp

  Just shipped a few updates to Loops! Admins can now properly review DM reports, and review DM conversations to help detect bot and spam accounts. I just caught a few on Loops.video that have been suspended. Please report accounts that send spammy DMs! #loops

  I believe Groups and Communities will bring the next wave to the fediverse with Pixelfed and later Mastodon. That and proper DMs. Sup 👀

  You think you want a lot of followers, but trust me, it's not the same. You have more freedom with less. The more you get, the more you have to be consistently something. Metrics start mattering more than you'd like to admit, you get addicted to the boop, and it's a negative feedback loop.
