No way! Now I'm afraid for the future of #Android. Never trust these companies.

Your IP gets exposed to others since it has a p2p feature to share the bandwidth of the video with others.

That's similar to want #Mbin does.

It's a great opportunity for #pixelfed to add #group support, so those sharing their videos can share it directly to a community/magazine reaching to a wider audience. Same for #loops. Obviously, not at the moment, where everyone is trying to keep things up and running. @[email protected]

Which part does not make any sense for you?

It seems like it, hahaha. What I wanted to convey was a fork of https://github.com/bluesky-social/social-app built to work with Mastodon API.

Wanted to add, I recently tried #pixelix for #pixelfed, and I might actually like this app better that the official.

I don't agree, this actually a good opportunity for #pixelfed to support #groups so people who want their post to reach a larger audience can choose a magazine/community to post.

I will check it out, but for what I heard is to post in multiple sites with the same app, right?

I think you misunderstood what I'm referring to. The bluesky app is open source and it has the same UI as twitter, basically. I'm talking about forking the project to make it compatible with Mastodon.

This might sound wild or controversial, but has anyone thought about using the bluesky app and adapt it to work with the mastodon API? By this way making it easier for more people?

Yeah, that would be dope. An average user probably won't use it, though. But having the option is great, and for user who don't opt in for self-hosting probably an option to export their algorithm data would be cool, for things like changing instances.

I just installed and is pretty neat. Truly a photo first social media.

Shouldn't all ActivityPub servers implement all objects and leave it to the client? (fedia.io)
 

Wouldn't that be better? Let me see if I can explain what I mean. Here on the fediverse each server is kind of restricted to what the user can post.

@[email protected] is for notes

@[email protected] for photos (wouldn't be surprised if it used a note too)

Lemmy only for article objects.

Peertube for videos.

You get the idea.

This way of developing the #fediverse where each server only receive one kind of the objects accepted by #ActivityPub makes it more fragmented it, right? A server should send and receive all kinds of objects and should be up to the client to how to processes those objects.

If an user wants an Instagram-like app just create an account on any service and use and app with that UI, of lager they wanted to see more kinds of objects they should just use another client that supports Note, Article, etc. with the same account on the same server.

Ideally all server should have a shared API.

This fixes #fragmentation, the need to have multiple accounts if you are into multiple kinds of objects/content.

What is this comic/webtoon I'm describing? (fedia.io)
 

A couple of months ago I saw a comic by @[email protected] but I can't find it.

It was about for what I can recall the parents of the character were congratulating him for an achievement, and the character says something along the lines: "They now won't know that I'm actually a failure" or "That I don't know what I'm actually doing".

By the way, I couldn't find a better community to ask this.

When is a new update to ActivityPub coming? (fedia.io)
 

I'm trying to learn more about the protocol, and after years of being around in the fediverse there's obviously areas where the protocol could improve. I was reading some of the fep documents and there are really good proposals. How long for these to be part of the protocol? Last update was 2018.
