WHOAAA!!! that’s actually a HUGE deal and it hadn’t even occurred to me how much I was missing it.

Is that a Magnus Archives reference
It wouod be amazing to see Ibis take off and pick up more developers
Oh wow, I never thought to do it that way, but it makes so much sense! Thanks for the tip

Ooh neat!

Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•GoToSocial empowers you to have your own home on the Fediverse - with unique controlsEnglish18·4 months agoI’ve always wanted to do this, but I can’t afford a VPS. And everytime I look into self-hosting on hardware at home, I just get the impression that it’s nearly impossible… My ISP forbids it, and even if I can evade their notice, people say having a public facing setup at home is bound to get you attacked eventually
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Can we please make a viable (federated!) amazon alternative? I have an idea!English21·4 months agoClosest we’ve got right now is Flohmarkt, right? If they haven’t already been working on some kinda trust system, they’re probably taking code contributions. I saw somewhere else somebody suggested Loops integration for it, so they could have something like the tiktok shop. I mean capitalism is garbage, but unfortunately we do currently gotta buy stuff occasionally, and it would be nice if that experience sucked less.
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto New Communities@lemmy.world•Community Revival - resurrecting dead communitiesEnglish2·4 months agoOoh that’s a great idea! Would this also be a good place to seek additional mods for not-quite-abandoned communities? I’ve been realllyyyy slacking on mine, life just gets in the way lol
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•How do you actually find fediverse bloggersEnglish2·4 months agoOh cool!! Yeah I definitely tried it on a few silly ones just because lol. Now somebody’s just gotta try Sharkey, Misskey, MBin, uh… GoToSocial. Probably a bunch more that I don’t know about. ActivityPub is so neat!
From the different colors of the two speech bubbles, I’m pretty sure HE’S the human toilet, and she’s begrudgingly ok with it. Whereas foreskin is apparently a bridge too far.
Her loss though, more for me then lol.
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•How do you actually find fediverse bloggersEnglish7·4 months agoThis doesn’t realllllyyyy answer your main question, but you got me curious how WriteFreely blog posts look from other platforms, and which ones can see them. So, I tried a few with this post of mine. Obviously some of these wouldn’t make any sense, and also for some of them I may have just never figured out how to properly format the URL/search the way it wanted. But, here’s what I got on every platform where I have an account:
- Mastodon (“https://todon.eu/@the-rose-garden@text.tchncs.de/113624027917705904”): If you’re logged in, it shows the title, any pictures, and a link to the full text. If you’re logged out, it shows you a redirect option to the originating blog. Had to remove this link because PieFed hates it for some reason.
- Friendica: Shows the whole post roughly as it should look, albeit with a “read more” accordion.
- WAFRN: Shows the whole post roughly as it should look, albeit with all the pictures at the bottom.
- BookWyrm: Logged in, it can see the blog but can’t retrieve the post. Logged out, it automatically redirects to the blog.
- NeoDB (“https://neodb.social/users/@the-rose-garden@text.tchncs.de/”): Logged in, it can see the blog but not the post. Logged out, it asks you to log in. Had to remove this link because PieFed hates it for some reason.
- Lemmy: Can’t seem to access the post or blog at all.
- PieFed: Can’t seem to access the post or blog at all.
- Pixelfed: Can’t seem to access the post or blog at all.
- Mobilizon: Can’t seem to access the post or blog at all.
- Ibis: Can’t seem to access the post or blog at all.
- Peertube: Can’t seem to access the post or blog at all.
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•NeoDB is committed to creating a free, open, and interconnected space for collecting and reviewing books, movies, music, games, and podcasts.English11·4 months agoHaving used BookWyrm and NeoDB, it’s definitely very comparable to GoodReads vs IMDB, at least in terms of interface/user experience/aesthetics/etc. BookWyrm being specifically for books, it has a ton of fields that wouldn’t be applicable to anything else, i.e. “publisher”, " ISBN". It can pull data automatically from some outside book databases. NeoDB seems able to do that same thing, except for any kind of media. Not sure where all they’re pulling the data from. They also seem to have fields for just about anything, from tracklist to director to author.
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•NeoDB is committed to creating a free, open, and interconnected space for collecting and reviewing books, movies, music, games, and podcasts.English15·4 months agoIt’s really nice! Great UI, not particularly buggy, feels great on the user end. Honestly pretty darn polished for a fediverse platform I’d never heard of until like a week ago. Also, the flagship instance (where I’m at) seems to be mostly reviews in Chinese, and it’s always nice to see parts of the fediverse that aren’t dominated by English. I am somewhat confused by the difference between a comment and a review, since both terms are used but everything seems to wind up in the same place? That said, I also haven’t tried very hard to figure it out either.
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Decentralized Instagram alternative Pixelfed launches mobile appsEnglish7·5 months agoI’ve been doing that exact thing, but only as long as the images would be Instagram-worthy in the first place. Not just temporary junk. I figure it’s probably more optimized for picture storage, since that’s the whole point right? Plus then I get it two places instead of one!
If you use the raw media link itself instead of the link to the post, it displays on Lemmy exactly the same as if you’d uploaded it here in the first place. So that’s nice.
Oooh thank you for linking this, I hadn’t heard of it. Super cool!!
Remy Rose@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•What are some fediverse apps that need contributors?English4·6 months agoI’d personally love to see Ibis get finished enough to become the go-to platform for fan wiki sites, replacing all the garbage ones filled with ads.
I’m always soooo excited for native fediverse apps, because PWAs are annoying in a bunch of ways. But then it actually happens, and I remember that none of the cool themes will be in there 😅
This is still AWESOME though!! I think that’s what was holding a lotttttt of people off, waiting for an app
