#firefishtips — Public Fediverse posts

#FediFact — Did you know that you can set different privacy settings for your posts? Depending on the privacy settings you choose, it may impact (and affect) how visible your post is, and how discoverable it might be.

Public … Public is the default privacy setting. When you use the Public privacy setting there are no restrictions on your posts. Your posts will be visible to any of the public timelines here on nsfw.social, and on other fedi servers depending on the other servers' admin's settings.

Unlisted … Unlisted prevents your posts from appearing in any of the public timelines both here, and on other servers. This also means that people won't be able to discover your posts unless someone they follow boosts one of your posts.

Followers … Followers limits your posts to only your followers. Neither your followers, or anyone they follow, will be able to boost your posts (though they will be able to react and reply).

Direct … Direct limits your posts to only those people you explicitly tag and specify to be able to see them. Admins on your local server, and on any remote server of users' that are tagged, technically have the ability to see your Direct posts. (At least today.) Do not post or send any sensitive information in Direct posts.

Private … Private is a special post permission that basically means your post is only visible to you. It will appear in your timeline but in nobody else's. Admins on your local server technically have the ability to see your Private posts. Do not post any sensitive information in Private posts.

Local Only … Local Only is a special flag you can add to your posts that is separate from any of the permissions outlined above. Setting a post to Local Only will cause the post to NOT federate. Your post will stay on your local server, and will be visible to other users on your local server depending on the other permissions you might set.

Question: How can I make my firefish experience the most like a 2000s forum post? Where can I use animated gifs and how close can I get to a signature?! :D #firefishtips #firefish
Can people who don't run firefish see this as blurred?!

I have created several custom CSS styles that can be utilized in #Firefish .

In the Global Timeline (GTL), all boosted posts are hidden:

/* Hide boosted posts in the Global Timeline */
div:has(button.tab._button.active[aria-label="Global"])  + div .list .notes .renote {
    display: none;
}

/* Display only boosted posts in the Social Timeline */
div:has(button.tab._button.active[aria-label="Social"])  + div .list .notes > div:not(:has(.renote)) {
    display: none;
}

Pretty much the only thing I miss from Mastodon is the follower/following management panel — it's so useful being able to drop the dormant accounts, particularly given the nature of the Fediverse, but if #firefish has this functionality I'm yet to find it ​:blobcatgooglyshrug:​

#FirefishTips TIL you can paste a link to another post into the compose box, and it'll ask if you want to quote the post you pasted. This seems to only work for post links on the local instance (so for me, that would be https://firefish.social/notes/...)
If the post you want to quote isn't on your instance, you can get that link by searching for the post's link in your instance in a new tab, copying that tab's URL, and pasting it back in the box.
(If you get the red ❗ popup when searching, you or them are probably blocked, so you can't quote that post.)

(This is probably something the Bird did/does but I wasn't on that site very much.)

Another tip, if your #Calckey Deck UI setup requires horizontal scrolling, you can also do this:

1. Hover over a column header
2. Use the regular mouse scroll

Calckey will horizontally scroll the Deck UI.

Re: #notifications setting in calckey.social.

Just in case clicking the “Enable” button is not working, check that the notification isn't blocked in the browser.

If it is blocked/not allowed/disabled, change it to ask or allow, refresh the site, then go back to your Calckey settings. The button to enable notifications should work fine then.
