  • 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!

  • Ok, it seems to be working now then. Let us know if you continue to see weirdness with the pinned posts.

  • Oh we actually unpinned the main@piefed.ca post after I confirmed it was working and made that comment. It's the other one from main@lemmy.ca that is still pinned, but doesn't show up for users that aren't logged in

  • Welcome!

  • I mean I get you but the only reason it would be done wrong is if it was intentionally done that way. I mean the system already does notifications and as I said I have gotten them for deleted posts. They don't go away. The devs would practically have to intentionally have it not work that way. I really don't think its a risk at all. Also once something is done its not impossible to undue. The federation and in particular piefed devs are pretty earnest individuals and its not like a coporate system where managment would bury their heads and dig their heels on something bad. There is also no incetive to keep something that does not work out well for some sort of financial gain.

  • Even logged in and with filters so that the post is visible, I don't see the post in the piefed community as pinned. Could it have been unpinned when you did your db reload?

    If it is pinned on your side, then it must be a bug of some kind.

    @thisismissem ironically, I am debating rolling back the summary generation logic for NodeBB because sending the first 500 chars means fewer people go off-site to read the rest of the post. I was able to get much more engagement by sending the entire darn thing in summary.

    There have been a couple of posts somewhat recently asking what can be done to attract new users to the Fediverse. My answer was basically "make it something new people would want to see and stick around for". The crux of that was basically less news, less politics, less rage and more, well, anything else. So, I would like to propose a challenge to all: Let's try that. At least for a week. Sound good? Here's how you can participate: If you're one who posts a lot of news/politics...stop or at least slow down. Post literally anything else. Or try to post less rage-inducing news and try to dig up the good news that's happening. Sorry !upliftingnews@lemmy.world but it's the regular news communities that are flooding the zone with every single bad thing that happens anywhere in the world, so we may be stealing some of your content with this one. Think before posting something. Are you only posting it because you're mad about it and you think other people should be mad about it too? If so, maybe post something else. Is there already similar coverage of that? Chances are, we don't need more of it. If you're a lurker, post something. Add your voice. Refrain from upvoting / booting all the negativity. Yes, it may feel good to upvote for visibility because "people need to know this" but the end result is the feed turning into a list of things to rage about. If you see good/non-rage news, upvote that for visibility. I've seen many posts like that languish with a few tens of upvotes at most while the rage-inducing news gets hundreds of upvotes. Post what makes you happy rather than what you're angry about. Avoid dogpiling on people if they express a different opinion. I'm not saying feed the trolls or pat them on the head, just merely "disengage" or avoid the impulse to virtue dump on them and such. If you have a hobby, share it! There's plenty of hobby communities that would greatly benefit from additional contributors. If you're boring like me, well, there's !Dullsters@dullsters.net or !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world (the latter welcomes all as the name is just a reference to the original) Anything else you can think of to make the homepage/experience feel more welcoming and less like an angry mob (suggestions in the comments are more than welcome). I know not everyone will participate, and that's okay. Simply adding more positivity and posting/boosting less rage can have a positive effect on what shows up on /all which is what potential new users see by default. So, let's try this for a week and see what happens. Who knows? Maybe the established userbase will find it refreshing as well. Who's with me?

    @marzlberger@neander.social unfortunately not and it highly depends on your used solution and how long you keep the content cached locally. On my snac instance, it’s not requiring much more disk space

    @luca @nationsblind @BPI @mastoblind Unfortunately I must address you to a big tech place, but, search for "sensory cube". It has colors but also tactile textures.
