  • 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.

  • 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

    This is our biggest release yet, including more finished tasks than any of our previous ones. Below is a summary of the highlights: What's new Posts & communities can be labelled as AI-generated and people can choose to hide all posts tagged that way. Very similar to how NSFW works. Comments can be marked as an Answer, like on StackOverflow. React to posts and comments with an emoji. Hide an individual post from yourself, without blocking the author. PieFed is now in the Yunohost app store, making initial setup easier. When banned from a remote instance you cannot make local-only posts in their communities. Honeypot to automatically IP ban badly-behaved crawlers. https://lemmy-federate.com integration, making PieFed communities get more exposure. "Share on Mastodon" menu item on posts. Vastly improve docs for new developers, see https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/docs/developer_docs. Language selection is more visible during post creation. Tag clouds can also be viewed as a list of tags. View post/comment markdown. Bot accounts are not included in community statistics. Footnote support in markdown. Polish translation. Better HTTP caching, which reduces dependence on Cloudflare. Bugs Passkey fixes. Polls can now have up to 15 options. User profile performance improved. Don't allow bypassing minimum username length and post title with whitespace. Polls and Events can no longer be posted into Lemmy communities. API Additional user settings can be set through the api, including Extra Fields. Fetch url metadata. Sort comments by controversial. Comment search now works. Hashtags. Events. Polls. Emoji reactions on posts and comments. See https://piefed.social/c/piefed_api for more details. To upgrade To upgrade from 1.3.x: git pull git checkout v1.4.x ./deploy.sh or ./deploy-docker.sh There is a big database migration that will take a few minutes to run. How long will vary depending on how old your instance is - older instances will have more content to process. It took ~25 minutes on piefed.social so expect it to be less than that. Donations PieFed is free and open-source software while operating without any advertising, monetization, or reliance on venture capital. Your donations are vital in supporting the PieFed development effort, allowing us to expand and enhance PieFed with new features. Donations can be made via Patreon, Liberapay or Ko-fi.

    What's new Media library that lets you upload images to comments/post body and paste from the clipboard Animated gif support for user profile pictures Specify alt-text for link posts that link to an image Emoji picker and spoiler button added to markdown toolbar More links to the modlog (footer, community sidebar, user profile) and improved searching/filtering Leave a conversation to remove it from the list of their direct message conversations Post urls are now "friendly" since they include the community name and a snippet of the title instead of just a number Add link to show parent comment when directly viewing a comment reply Image markdown style formatting to allow more advanced control of how images are rendered. e.g. ![image alt text :: width=300px](https://url to image) Code syntax highlighting in code blocks and allow for style selection in user settings Tag cloud added to sidebar for feeds and topics Better searching and filtering of the Instances list Add a block (of a user, community, instance or domain) from the blocks and filters management area, without doing it via a post Popup suggestions when mentioning a community or user as you type Onboarding plugin which auto-subscribes, auto-blocks and sends a welcome message for new accounts Improved federation efficiency Old posts can be automatically archived (saved to S3) to free up database space Old posts by bots with no comments are automatically deleted LLDAP support, which does LDAP a bit differently To upgrade To upgrade from 1.2.x: git pull git checkout v1.3.x ./deploy.sh or ./deploy-docker.sh In the past we had a separate project for realtime notifications, which is now unsupported as it's code has been merged with the main PieFed project. To set it up, refer to the Push Notifications section of install.md. As well as enhancing the user experience doing this will decrease load on your server if it hosts local communities with many subscribers as some of the federation work has been offloaded to the push notifications service.

    In general that's a good idea because you should never trust content coming from somewhere else (even in an S2S context) For reference, NodeBB literally sanitizes the bejeezus out of what it gets from anywhere. All classes are removed, all attributes are removed. I want it as close to semantic HTML as possible, and classes/attributes mean absolutely nothing because: I don't use the same CSS classes Attributes may not follow my own rules for when and where they are added. For example, Mastodon messes with any URL it federates out. It chops the anchor text in half, hides the rest behind invisible or something, and adds an ellipsis. invisible does something different in NodeBB, so there is a CSS conflict here. I strip everything and just show the URL as it was intended.
