I forgot to mention that you can resize the panes to make the left one skinnier, like a mobile phone width, so the content on the right is bigger.

How long offline? If less than a week not going anywhere

Thank a lot for those new features, they are great ! :)

@rimu BRAVISSIMO! Go Rimu and PieFed! This is the way 🙌​#NoAI

With Hetzner's price rises taking effect, I'm moving piefed.social to somewhere else during a quiet time, this weekend. Most likely it'll be during a quiet time when few people will notice, around 00:00 to 3:00 UTC on Saturday.

I'm also going to go out on a limb and say that this seems to be the case because Jeff Atwood put his name behind Discourse. He's a big name (he's also a big asshole, but I digress...) Lots of open-source projects just happen to find Discourse first instead of other good forums like NodeBB and Flarum. To each their own.

You'll get taken to a random community. Once you arrive there's a link at the top of the page to /r/random so you can just hammer away at that until you get somewhere that's the right combo of random and interesting. There is also /r/randnsfw that takes you to a random nsfw communty if your instance has them.

A few months ago I threw this question out into the void - "what if you could access the fediverse through your Usenet reader??" and got almost no response. Still, the idea had lodged in my brain and wouldn't go away so this weekend I caved in and built the thing. Hat tip to the author of the excellent nntpserver package that did all the hard stuff. I look forward to seeing someone's screenshots of fediverse posts on a Commodore 64, some day. This will be released as a part of PieFed 1.7, coming soon.

Deploy PieFed on Elest.io and get a working dedicated instance in less than 3 minutes. You can Relax knowing that we are taking care for you of install, configuration, encryption, backups, software updates, os upgrades, live monitoring, alerts, live migrations without downtime ... and more!

Yes I think you're right about that. The nomenclature is important to get right because once federation is added to the equation privacy (without some form of E2EE) cannot be guaranteed. So perhaps calling it something like a gated community (like @ex_06@slrpnk.net said) would help, although that term has some other associations with it too 😝

Ah true! NodeBB doesn't support emoji reactions yet. Thanks for reminding me of yet another way we're behind Piefed :muscle:

From a technical POV it is theoretically possible but not tested. Most likely the various softwares would opt out of handling non-public content out of safety. It is something we'd want to work on in lockstep with all the various devs 🙂

As if multiple servers wasn't complicated enough, there are multiple apps and multiple web frontends you can use too! p.piefed.social is an installation of Photon. Log in with your piefed.social credentials. Like Blorp, it looks great on a phone and can be installed as a PWA.

Try https://b.piefed.social instead! Log in with the same username and password as piefed.social. It works best on a phone / tablet but on a desktop it's fine too once you switch to compact mode. It can be installed as a PWA. There are also lots of themes you can try at https://piefed.social/user/settings. Here are some screenshots of them - https://join.piefed.social/screenshots/

Oh so it is, I wasn't seeing it yesterday when I checked. Perhaps unpinning and re-pinning, or removing and re-allowing the ability to show on popular fixed it and I didn't notice it. Nonetheless, thank you for all the help!

Welcome! What brings you to PieFed and how did you find out about it?

Oh cool, didn't know Piefed supported Emoji reactions! That's fair that you don't want to see it. 😬

[image: BsPhglEGjGx0BoB.png] A lot of people made new years resolutions about using social media less. So now we have an optional daily time limit! It's in https://piefed.social/user/settings. Bear in mind that it only counts time spent with a PieFed tab in the foreground - when you switch to another tab on another website to read a news article the timer stops. So you might need to set this lower than you think for it to be effective. One nice thing about the fediverse is we don't need to optimize for addiction and try to keep you here longer than you want to. The warning pops up with every page load so just clicking through it once won't work. It's for your own good!
