@mhoye Yes, here is one https://lemmy.ml/post/13116496

@julian Ooo good point about adding the ? back on.

If you're interested in a non-regex solution, here's what I have - https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/app/utils.py#L247

@julian PieFed uses the first 150 chars of the first line, but stopping at the first '.' in the first line makes even more sense.

@feps I really really feel the need for a 'replies' collection. It would be great for back-filling content.

I am not so sure that there needs to be explicit 'Add' and 'Remove' activities notifying everyone about the acceptance or rejection of replies, though. That rule seems application-specific and not every app is going to want to give the original poster those powers?

@grimalkina A lot of games embed Lua. I'm sure there are some fun environments mess around in with that.

#PieFed and #pixelfed are the only #fediverse platforms with a print stylesheet.

Gotta do the basics right.

#webdev

@web3isgreat love the optimism

@nix @dansup @cheeaun @dessalines Money makes things complicated.

But I definitely feel the need for better/more inter-project communication.

@julian Sure, yeah.

It's not really a question or an answer, just a space for sharing experiences and knowledge.

Groups in Mastodon and how/whether they work is pretty important to me as PieFed uses the Group actor type also.

@jupiter_rowland @mikedev @mario You can see the spreadsheet just documents the words we use it makes no attempt to prescribe a particular word.

@jupiter_rowland @mikedev @mario

"If you really aim to create a common language for the whole Fediverse and make it pretty much mandatory"

No no, that's not the intent :)

It's great if we use different words as long as we all understand the meaning behind them. Ideally when a NodeBB dev says "Post" they mean X and when I see them say "Post" i know they mean X (which I as a PieFed dev refer to as "Comment" or whatever).

Attached is the current state of the spreadsheet, FYI.

@lmorchard Yes, you could totally do that.

Up to you how you find out the type of the following actor but you'll need to do a HTTP GET of the actor to verify the signature anyway so you could record the type of it then.

@kemonine Yes, a known issue. While Lemmy and Mastodon both use #ActivityPub, they use it differently enough to cause a lot of problems.

https://lemmyverse.net/ can help you choose an instance.

Mbin does a better job of integrating both Mastodon and Lemmy content. https://fedia.io/ is an Mbin instance.

Also I've been building a Lemmy alternative which you can try at https://piefed.social

@adele old.reddit.com does :)

Absolutely loving the #brutalist "Hercules 1982" theme for #PieFed.

Hercules was the brand of graphics card for the IBM PC that was widely used in the 1980s.

It could do two colours - black and whatever colour the monitor was. For my first year I had a green monitor and then an amber one for the next two years.

You can try it by choosing the theme at https://piefed.social/user/settings

#retrocomputing #fediverse

For the #TransDayOfVisibility, I've made a theme based on the trans pride flag and set it as the default theme on #PieFed.

I've been using Greengeeks for 15 years, they've been great!

@phil_stevens Too often he was the only one saying anything sensible. Gutted.

@slumberingcat Yes, great graphic there. N Masonry is what PieFed has because it's very quick and easy to code - but it is the worst for the user.

Not sure if you noticed but half the #ThreadVerse is memes. They're not my thing but I enjoyed putting together the best meme consumption experience I could.

Check it out in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXVhb4sVZV4 or go to https://piefed.social/topic/chilling/memes?layout=masonry_wide&sort=hot to use it yourself. Click/tap on any image for a full screen lightbox-style image gallery that you can move through by swiping or using the arrow keys.

Can you think of any improvements?
