I think it's a great thing that Pixelfed is getting adopted by a lot of people who are not Mastodon users.
Among other reasons because people will finally start to understand what the Fediverse is and that it's not synonymous with Mastodon.

@pfefferle@mastodon.social Thank you for your ActivityPub plugin which is just awesome.
However, I have a question/issue. Since one of the latest updates the possibility to customize what appears on the Fediverse seems to be gone, and my posts just look weird here. (one was just two pics and only one appeared without a link to the original post, the other one was the full text but every picture was a link to the pic URL on my website and not appearing on my fediverse feed)

Is this a bug? Or is the possibility to format the posts as we wish gone?

Thanks in advance.

What @Flipboard@flipboard.social is doing these days is one of the most exciting things happening in the Fediverse and not enough people are talking about it.

Wow, it's happening!

People on Threads can now follow you if you have interacted with their account. Baby steps, but it finally seems to be going somewhere.

Tear down those walls! The Fediverse is about an pen web, not walled gardens.

Now that BlueSky is open to everyone and the trolls are gonna swarm in, do you think the Fediverse will experience a #BlueSkyMigration ?

Or not... BlueSky is not relevant enough to attract trolls in the first place?


It looks like I'm shitting on BlueSky but don't get mistaken I use it too (kind of...) And honestly, it has some good ideas. I'm thinking about the possibility of having a domain name as your username (which allows you to keep that username even if you migrate to another instance), the custom feeds (which I don't use, but maybe I would if they were not public... oh yeah, everything is public on BlueSky don't go there if you expect some sort of privacy)

Now, it does have one major drawback: not wanting anything to do with ActivityPub.

Oh well...
