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.

    I have just completed the "Learning the Basics" and "Creating a Microblog" tutorials on @fedify. The Fediverse is very complicated. However, building the example application with Fedify is much simpler, and the tutorial was really good, with lots of examples and explanations of the basics. If you want to check it out, here's the link: https://fedify.dev/tutorial/microblog.Thank you for creating it, and please consider following @hongminhee!#fediverse

    Unfortunately, the administrator at social.tchncs.de is a coward. It is not racism or sexism or discrimination of any kind to call out a confirmed scammer.What is happening is Gaza is awful. I have never wavered on this fact. What Israel has done to these poor people is a crime against humanity.But so is a scam trying to make itself as support. That too is an injustice.I need a site that will ignore such nonsense. When there are photos and videos proving there is a scam, and it is not just a wild claim, it should be upheld.If Reddit, Facebook, and Twitter can recognize this as a scam (with proof). Surely, so can the Fediverse. #Fediverse #ActivityPub #Mastodon #Misskey #Scam #Fraud

    At Piefed office hours, rimu@piefed.social and I got to talking about what's next for Piefed and the Threadiverse WG. One of those things is moving stuff between communities (or in bbs parlance: moving topics between categories/forums). Rimu suggested we use the already-existing as:Move activity, sent by the community (a group actor), with origin and target set, and with object being the post id itself. I suggested we update this to use the resolvable context collection as object instead, which Piefed has supported since v1.2. That should be enough to get a proof-of-concept implementation going between Piefed and NodeBB... a question remained as to whether this should be Announce(Move(Object)) or simply Move(Object). Argument for former was that it was similar verbiage to other 1b12 actions. Argument for the latter was that this is merely 1b12 adjacent and needn't follow prior art. We'll likely put together an FEP for this.
