Hello, Kaihuri has received a new funding from NLNet, meaning that we can work on improving the software quality and develop (some) new functionalities. There are hundreds of points which need attention and we have to make some choices. We’ll work for sure on : UX improvements and bug fix selective federation interoperability and fediverse new functionalities security and accessibility For more details, here is the project plan we’ve agreed on with NLNet. We plan three sprints of about tw...

Please post on their actual forum not just the comments here as I’m not at all involved in the project (yet).

    Oh nice! I’ll read up on the suggestions and see if there’s something I can add.

    Off the top of my head, a nicer UI would be nice. Luma is the new thing everyone seems to be using, and the design is pretty smooth

    Meanwhile mobilizon looks dated and generic. Even just updating it to reflect peertube’s new UI would be nice

    (yet.)

    Are you planning on working with them in the future?

      Also one thing I don’t see mobilizon doing that luma does well is handling payments. So that’s also a thing that could hinder use by organizers.

      That’s great and much appreciated. I’ve been following this platform for years but there wasn’t ever an instance that quite suited me or did I have a good enough reason to set one up. But as I’m getting more excited about dweb and concerns about tech being used against people I am thinking of hosting an instance but also found the https://mobilizon.us/ is actually running and somewhat active. Maybe I can promote it more about dweb folks.

      I agree the UI could be improved but also I hit quite a few UX bugs along the way that are pretty bad like not being able to set the date and images disappearing after upload. That being said the US instance is a few versions old so I’m hesitant to open issues since it could be fixed already.

      Luma is a wonderful experience and quite popular here in SF. I think it sets a great bar for how the participant experience could be. That being said, it is venture backed and probably not long before it becomes enshittified :/

      So I’m thinking I’ll get more involved but I did already open a few issues and one merge request. https://framagit.org/kaihuri/mobilizon-instances/-/merge_requests/2

      Based on their Matrix chat it seems the dev team only spends Fridays working on it right now so things are slow. I guess some more community code reviews and the like are a way I could help.
