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.xAt 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.yamlthengit pullagain. 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.shIf 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.

Great updates, especially the pronouns!
Downvotes can be turned off completely in a community, not just instance-wide

no, it'd be part of piefed.social, likely just a different frontend

Sorry the correct link is http://retro.piefed.com. I'll update the post. Beware your browser will try to switch to https instead because they prefer it so you probably won't get the full rawdogging PieFed experience unless you change your browser setting to stop that.
My fingers are used to .social! I also own the .com to stop someone else nabbing it but couldn't use retro.piefed.social because of SSL on piefed.social...

I still need to finish the Dillo theme, which will make PieFed compatible with roughly Firefox 3+. That'll compliment the http mode nicely. This is super niche so just something I potter away on occasionally.

Testing custom emoji :face_with_rolling_eyes: :sweat_smile:
Cool news about private communities! I'd love to unlock inter-compatibility between instances so that can finally be federated... lots to do in between then and now.
Hopefully we can work together on that soon?
-
I couldn't think of a way to federate privately, when we don't know which software is at the other end. In the current political environment there are going to be groups of people who simply can't take the risk.
For example with mastodon's followers-only notes - that only gives some privacy because there is massive social pressure on any fedi implementation that doesn't follow the gentleman's agreement we have to hide those notes. That fails when implementations have bugs, are under the control of ICE, or whatever.
It's tricky! Happy to bounce ideas around on it sometime. Maybe encryption...

mmmm. private communities are nice but without federation it means they have to cajole anyone they want to join to make an account on a particular server.

heck if I had an instance I would limit new accounts to not posting for a week or a month if I could. I don't get people feeling the need to start posting like crazy.

User intake would drop through the floor at that point. It's fine to make a welcome post or a post in a community you're interested in, but 3+ posts in a single first day is sus as hell - and Lemmy's ongoing problem here prompted this.

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!
-
@povoq@slrpnk.net okay, yes. This is true, once it leaves the local server there are no guarantees.
However I'd have to ask whether there is an acceptable tradeoff in risk of content exposure.
After all, even in local private groups, things could get leaked via copy-paste, screenshots, etc. The weakest link is the social element.
-
At a guess, private piefed communities don't federate because once content federates, you can't control who can see it. All you can do is hope that the remote instance will follow the privacy settings, but you can't enforce them.
Private lemmy communities don't federate because they don't exist.
-
Because once it leaves the server there is no guarantee that the remote server understands or even respects the notion that it should be private.
Lemmy doesn't have private communities yet afaik.
-
Is that different for Lemmy? If so, why is PieFed's approach to private communities different from Lemmy's?
-
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.
