Now is the time to spread the message about Loops, the fediverse alternative to TikTok!
-
@hiphopheaven @yuliyan We have over 340 commits since the last release, Pixelfed isn't abandoned.
That being said, we're due to a massive release and that will be coming with some big ActivityPub improvements I'm working on now (borrowed from Loops).
Then the release after that will be the new webUI which is coming along very well. I haven't teased updates because I want to announce them after they shipped.

@dansup Will login redirect eventually be supported on PixelFed and Loops? I posted about it earlier this week, but when you try to like something on the Loops explore page for an instance, it prompts you to log in with your email and password, rather than first asking for your username+instance handle to direct you to where you already have an account, like Mastodon does. On PixelFed, interacting without an account is unavailable entirely!

What about AI content?

Pixelfed could seriously use a public roadmap, same as Loops has. more transparency, more accountability. (maybe fewer blown deadlines and deleting posts to cover them up?)
anyway, I don't understand touting the number of commits a project has. who cares? if updates are not working on public/private servers (NOT just test ones!), then commits are MEANINGLESS for the average end user. they do nothing to improve user experience UNTIL they're actually deployed and available to all.

there's no benefit to FormerInstagramUser12345 when a "commit" is made. if they're just trying to use Pixelfed to post photos, the "before" and "after" a commit looks exactly the same to them -- still broken, still janky, not updated.
it's like the repair guy saying your car is "fixed" when it's been sitting in the shop awaiting a shipment of replacement parts for the past week. the parts haven't arrived, they aren't installed, you're not driving the car, ergo IT IS NOT FIXED.

oh well.
maybe by the one-year anniversary of the oh-so-successful Kickstarter for "accelerated Pixelfed development" we might actually get something RELEASED.
that's only, what, a month and a half or so from now? plenty of time.
plus! that'll be a mere three months late on the #pixelfedChristmas update we were promised and told we wouldn't regret waiting for!

@worldruined i would be fine with a roadmap with no dates. I just want to know what it is currently on developement and what features and bugs are top priorities

anything is better than what we have now, which is nothing.
well, we get broken promises and moving goalposts, I guess. which might still happen with a roadmap, but what can you do.

@dansup I don’t get it. It’s not available in the app store yet, so why promote it?
