#featuredcollections — Public Fediverse posts

Somewhere else, this is a patent fight. Here it's a GitHub issue.

https://github.com/pixelfed/starter-kits/issues/1

Almost 2 years ago I started planning federated Starter Kits. @Mastodon took the idea, turned it into a FEP, and built it with my feedback rather than around it.

It shipped in @loops this year. Mastodon shipped Featured Collections months later.

Compatible. Collaborative. Consent-driven 🚀

Loops Starter Kits and Mastodon Collections will soon be easier to find and discover, once the new https://fediverse.info ships!

Just shipped a Loops Starter Kit bug fix that prevented Mastodon collections from working properly, I've also filed a bug on their side to resolve this as it will likely affect other software.

#pachli development focus for the next couple of weeks is supporting the new #FeaturedCollections feature in the latest Mastodon release.

This is probably going to drop in multiple Pachli Current releases over the next few weeks. https://github.com/pachli/pachli-android/issues/2319 tracks the work.

Starter Kit Federation is ready 🚀

This will be compatible with Mastodon Feature Collections.

Shipping soon!
