PieFed 1.5 is released - move posts, upload video files, better chat and more

PieFed Meta
54 19 224
  • Big deals, omg

    • Mods can move a post, with replies and votes, to another community. The change federates to other instances (except Lemmy, for now. I've been in discussion with devs from NodeBB and Lemmy about how this will work, they are on board). Relevant FEP.
    • Upload video files while creating a video post - no external host needed. Admin setting to limit who can do this (to save space).
    • Realtime chat - conversation immediately updates on screen when a new PM arrives.

    More good stuff

    • Author-deleted posts are still visible to them and anyone with the url. No more loss of high-value comments with the OP deletes.
    • Search filters - nsfw and minimum post score
    • Improve speed of cross-posting form on mobile
    • Emoji tokens like :blush: can be used in post or comment body. No GUI support yet.
    • Admin setting to disable local copies of remote images - good for single-user instances
    • Replying to a comment marks associated inbox item as read
    • Updated HPT-Fruits theme
    • 196 no longer excluded from default community import
    • Remove unused community rating feature
    • Remove unused instance vote weight feature
    • Remove ineffective þ to 'th' replacement
    • Improved accessibility - better contrast, fixed many incorrectly-used aria-labels
    • Updated translations - Basque, Chinese, Japanese

    API:

    • Admins can ban/unban users through the API. piefed.world was maintaining custom code for this, hopefully it'll make their version upgrades faster.

    Bugs fixed

    • PMs
    • Markdown parsing
    • Speed up loading of profile pages for admin users
    • Friendica post parsing
    • Passkeys login UX tweak

    being able to move posts is huge!

  • being able to move posts is huge!

    It's one of those missing pieces that we've missed for so long that no one ever bought it up - that was just how it was. Then in Nov of last year Julian from NodeBB initiated a conversation between NodeBB, Lemmy and PieFed and here we are. I got there first but hopefully the others are not far behind.

    We were just talking about how to consolidate communities and it's really annoying not being able to move posts lol

    Sounds awesome! One question, until Lemmy properly supports this, how will it look on the Lemmy side when a post is moved? Will it still be visible in the original community, in both the old and new communities, or will the post just disappear?

    Sorry I misread your earlier question, missing out the "until Lemmy supports...".

    From Lemmy's side it'll look like the post is still in the old community.

    Thanks for clarification, makes more sense now. Will everyone still see each other's comments when a post is moved but for Lemmy users it's still in the old community?

    @rimu@piefed.social is there any documentation about the move post feature? It has existed in the mod panel on mbin for as long as it exists, but it does not federate and it would be great if we could implement it in a way that is working piefed, lemmy and nodebb

  • 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.

    read more

  • 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

  • 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.

    so, this is a bit of an abstract mathematical post. I think that a fediverse service consists mostly of three parts: identity provider, data hoster, and feed provider. The data hoster is the machine that hosts the posts and comments and upvote/downvote stats. The feed provider is the service which gives you a nice, scrollable overview over new content for you. This is today the same system that provides the data, but it could be separated, such as having a custom "search engine" that gives you content, that you use independently of where the data is stored. The identity provider basically only makes a proof that "you are you" : you give it your login credentials and it gives you a kind of token that authenticates (proves your identity) to other services. like, i'm on discuss.tchncs.de, but i can post to lemmy.world. this is because the discuss.tchncs.de server says to lemmy.world that i indeed have this account on this server. so they prove my identity in a way. What i argue now is that such an identity providing server is not technically necessary. You could use something like an ~/.ssh/id_rsa file that you generate on your own computer and use that public key to identify yourself on the fediverse. I don't think that this approach has any inherent advantages over how things are being done today, but it could be done that way and that in itself is fascinating. :D

    @77nn @oblomov I recently got a router/gateway to a new ISP. They have intentionally nerfed the web interface to force your user of a phone 'cr'app. I managed to re- enable the main login with their 'cr'app, yet the latest update nerfed other pages.IMO this is just enshittification.

    Experimental support for multiple users landed with Ktistec release v2.4.15. "Experimental" means that it works for me, but hasn't seen enough testing for me to call it "ready for production". With that said, it's unlikely you'll lose your data.There are lots of intentional design decisions that fit my vision for Ktistec but may surprise you. Here they are:Every user is an administrator. That doesn't mean users have access to each other's posts and data, but it does mean all users have access to the shared parts of the site—they can change the site description, for example—and they can add new users. So only add people you trust.If you want to add another user, create an account for them and give them their username and password.  There is no self-registration. There are no invitations.Beyond adding a user, there is no support for user management. You can't even boot a user from your site. Users can delete themselves, however.There is no support for content moderation. Only add people you trust.TL;DR Multi-user support in Ktistec is suitable for small teams, families (biological or chosen), and your personal avatars. There are better tools for online communities.Here's the full set of changes:AddedAdd support for multiple user accounts.FixedHide attachments behind the summary.
