  • Ah true! NodeBB doesn't support emoji reactions yet.

    Thanks for reminding me of yet another way we're behind Piefed :muscle:

  • Emoji reactions are a big one - rather than voting you can apply an emoji, which is a much richer expression.

    Every community can have different settings for who can downvote. Here are the options:

    If you downvote more than you upvote, pretty soon you can't downvote anymore.

  • ngl sometimes someone gotta take one for the team 🫡

  • Thats what I kind of mean. some folks vote on everything. some don't vote on anything. some are very specific and thoughtful in their voting and some have default voting things. I have been both. I don't view voting information as at all useful in a community type of way. Now make it scarce and maybe. Like every day your get one up or down vote that will expire in a week or something. Thing about that kind of thing though is it encourages folks who like to manipulate to make a bunch of accounts. I could totally see cm0002 going through all his accounts to downvote things on lemmy.ml. I just don't think its very useful unless as a feature for accounts locally.

    Okay, I get the rationale behind it, but it seems like an improper extension of the voting mechanism, doesn't it?

    (Not specifically singling you out, I'm just speaking broadly.)

    One of those side effects that doesn't just affect you. Makes me wonder if this was added because it increases engagement metrics.

  • To warn you, downvoting is public on the forumverse, so if you are perceived as reflexively downvoting at scale in a community- you risk getting community banned.

  • Its basically what was done with trust cafe which the wikipedia guy started. the thing is he did not make it federated and as much as I like the setup I like the decentralized nature of the fediverse betters. I like using the portal but if someone made an app with this type of function I would be tempted. well as long as I did not have to run it on a phone.

  • I would love rating to be used in a basic algorithmic view that only takes into account the ratings you give. trustcafe does this where verything can be rated (posts, users, comments, communities, domains, etc) and defaults to a value of 50 that the user can change to between 0 and 100. So like rather than blocking someone I can be like. This person is annoying but they are a real person (I think) and I don’t want to totally discount them so I will drop them to 25 so their things go twice as far down my feed but then this other person I really jive with so I will rank them 75 so their stuff will be bumped up higher.

    That's an interesting take on feed curation

    A big thank you to those who contributed to making this release, translating, writing documentation, providing emotional support and promoting PieFed! None of this would happen without you all. New hotness Pronouns - when you put pronouns into Extra Fields on your profile that is used as a flair in all communities where you haven't set a flair yet Private communities - no federation, only certain roles (depends on the community) can invite new people. Posts inside are only visible to members. Mastodon can now quote-boost PieFed posts Plain http web UI (no SSL required) with SSL used during federation - see http://retro.piefed.com Downvotes can be turned off completely in a community, not just instance-wide Admins can sticky a post on the home page, not just mods in their communities Auto-delete of replies on remote instances when reply author has been blocked by parent content author (only works in PieFed communities due to a ActivityPub limitation) On home page when showing number of replies a post has, calculate the sum of the replies on all cross-posts and display that New users can only do 3 posts in their first 24h, to reduce floods of posts by that guy who keeps deleting his accounts and making new ones More good stuff Improve emoji federation compatibility Change order of emoji in picker to present most-used ones first Daily time limit on usage to help people use PieFed less (released in 1.5.2) A way to report posts that need to be tagged as AI generated Better accessibility Improved handling of bold and italics in markdown parsing Don't accept votes from people the author has blocked Admins can resend email address verification email Admins can add notes to instances to keep track of defederation reasons, etc Search form has been simplified Option for admins to disable the em-dash detector Multiple minor bugfixes and security enhancements To upgrade from 1.5.x git pull git checkout v1.6.x At this point you might see an error message about a merge conflict with compose.yaml. To preserve your custom compose.yaml you will need to copy it somewhere else, then git checkout compose.yaml then git pull again. This time the pull will succeed so after that copy your custom compose.yaml it back, overwriting the one from git. Then, ./deploy.sh or ./deploy-docker.sh If you had to do the compose.yaml fix up earlier then you might want to compare what you have with https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/compose.yaml and manually copy and paste some improvements in particular the command: part of the db container which tunes postgresql for performance. Adjust the numbers for your system. This time the database migrations will not take long.

    > If it's some automated feature, I don't think it should be in the source property of the federated JSON in the first place. Thanks, it's this. Edit: oh interesting, I looked into it. We serve the absolute URL in HTML but not in markdown. I had no idea threadiverse apps read the markdown. Neat!

    After 5 months of chipping away at it, PieFed is now an installable 'app' in the Yunohost store! It's been there for a couple of weeks actually but until this weekend it had a scary red exclamation mark because some automated tests hadn't ran yet. But that's gone now so I feel confident about recommending it to others. Yunohost is a linux distro for servers that has a web gui for installing and managing services, that takes all the hassle out of self-hosting. How to get started with Yunohost. @squirrel@piefed.kobel.fyi and @michael@piefed.chrisco.me have had good success setting up their instances already: https://piefed.social/c/piefed_meta/p/1561141/thanks-to-rimu-ericgaspar-and-tituspijean-yunohost-has-a-working-piefed-setup
