You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
I got an invite to SURF but you can’t accept it without a Google account. DOA.
Nobody is talking about updating the documentation.
If you see anything…that could be improved, the best option is to make that improvement yourself.
Are you under the impression that just everyone is a web developer?
Besides it would be impossible to reach an agreement who this default instance should federate with or how exactly it should be moderated.
If I may make a proposition: You can look at how Pixelfed allows certain instances that meet certain standards to opt into being listed in the app for discovery, all electronically. My recommendation would be to have 2 choices for users on sign-up:
- A random choice from the list of approved instances, that’s rotated periodically to prevent any particular instance from being inundated with new signups
- “Choose a different instance” where users can enter their preferred one manually.
People can’t seem to make up their minds if it matters which instance you join. I really don’t think it does.
Not necessarily. Ghost, Wordpress, Flipboard and Tumblr are all adding federation to existing platforms. But I do agree that is the exception rather than the norm.
Yeah the MacOS version does that too. Like I said, the desktop app is not so polished just yet. It was just released a couple weeks ago.
Decentralization is good. Having a default instance is bad.
The way Twitter works can be traced back to the very early days of the internet and it was just never updated because…reasons.
As for Mastodon…I can’t explain that one.
Nothing to see here
Hilarious that I’m experiencing the condition they pointed out in the video.
Thank you for the unwarranted explanation.
Tell it to the hosts.
The warm satisfaction of supporting the developer.
It’s a solved problem. Check out phtn.app and vger.app also Alexandrite, Next and Tesseract. Like the problem is solved 5 times over.
The source license is basically does not allow freedom of redistribution of modified code so therefore it fails the minimal definition of open source
That’s not correct, you should read it more closely.
Louis Rossmann has gone on the record on video saying he will sue people if someone were to do something with code he does not approve of whatever that means.
He was very explicit that he does not want people doing what they do specifically with NewPipe, which is to redistribute it with ads or malicious code. Which I think is very fair. He also doesn’t want companies like Google making billions of dollars on the backs of community projects.
If you’re unsure you can contact them about acquiring a license.
Not being libre doesn’t make it anti-libre.
Link is not working for me, what’s a Bookface?
Nope.
I honestly don’t understand it, that’s why I said “seems to support”, but thanks for the clarification.
Substack and Ghost both support RSS. Problem is no one uses it anymore. They either don’t know or don’t care. It also doesn’t provide an option for paid subscriptions.
