@cwebber @spritely sorry, late to the party. Still remembering good old mediagoblin days :)

@BeAware @norberteder thanks for the perspective on this. I didn't think about this.

For pixelfed accounts it's really annoying to follow people with really great pictures and not being able to like or comment because you don't see them. I fail to see how we can explain this to non tech savvy folks.

@BeAware @norberteder this is a solvable problem. A backfiller should be available on every instance imho. It will make adopting and the overall usability of the fediverse so much better. In my opinion this should be the most important stuff to be added.

Wer die Entwicklung von #Pixelfed und #Loops beschleunigen will, kann das nun mit einem Kickstarter Projekt tun:

Lasst uns das Fediverse groß und stark machen!

@dansup @mike @pixelfed can't wait! Will it be dark mode for visiting users, when I set it to dark mode? This is the only thing bugging me with the old one, that visiting users see it completely different than I do.

@dansup @pixelfed It's https://pixelfed.pandainthecloud.de/

@dansup @dvdp @pixelfed first thing I noticed is that scroll position in your own profile is not being saved, when switching to another app and back. Don't know if it's intentional. The discover tab is completely blank, no header, just a spinning circle until it is rendered. Suggested profiles show with "0 followers" ( likely an issue when running a single user instance like I am doing). When selecting a suggested hashtag, lots of pics stay gray squares.

@dansup @dvdp @pixelfed distributing apks via firebase to patreons would also be nice. It really sucks to be stuck on an older beta because there are no newer apks available. You're limiting feedback as well like this. But I am in no position to complain I know.

@dansup @pixelfed great news for those who get it already and not me as a patreon. Feels a bit strange tbh.

@dansup @pixelfed can lat/lon be chosen via an openstreetmap map? I am not fluent in geographical coordinates :D

@tantramar @dansup @pixelfed huh? https://pixelfed.org/mobile-apps but the one from the post is unreleased so far

@IngridAusOL @hjoest @tagesschau schreibt Briefe und fragt. Bitte! Der Account hier antwortet ja leider nicht

@dansup @pixelfed any idea what needs to be changed so that no login shows for external users when viewing pixelfed.social/laszlo?

@Laszlo

@dansup will this federate or only work on the instance you are on? E. g. Only show local hashtag use

@Gargron would be nice if we could have fair-trade organic cotton next time.

@dansup @pixelfed then my first post might have been not precise enough. I was talking about the little square in the compose dialog. Also the same is most likely used for alt-text. Would be nice to have this bigger

@dansup @pixelfed this does not change anything in the compose dialog. Should it?

@dansup @pixelfed will the image preview for uploads and alt-text be bigger in metro 5? And conserve the aspect ratio? That's my main gripe with the current UI

Thanks to the newish edit function in #pixelfed all my pictures now have alt-text. I'm close to having all images described in german and english. Thanks to @dansup for making inclusion easier to achieve!
