  1. Another thing i am unable to find while using #Pixelfed via Browser on my Smartphone :

    I can not see anywhere:
    -My comments
    -what i liked or boosted
    -marked/safed posts.

    There are no buttons, pages, sides on my profile or anywhere.
    Is that different on desktop?

    If i cannot access the list of marked posts/boosts on my phone... That'd be strange, since i think that Pixelfed is optimized for Smartphone?! (is it not?).

  2. There is a bug in the reply option in Pixelfed App.

    Not sure which profile to direct this issue to, so mentioning 3!
    The Pixelfed app has a bug where a reply to a comment that is longer than 1 line disappears the "post" option. It is not possible to reply in the app except on one line. See screenshots. You see 'post', bottom right on the reply of one line, but it's gone as soon as the second line is begun.

  3. Question about #pixelfed

    Is it possible to upload the images without having them being recrompressed on the server?

    Background: I'm using the web interface, no app. My workflow is to crop and rescale the images before the upload, and when creating the post, I do not edit/crop/filter the images in the web interface, just arrange the order.

    To get most out of the available storage as well as to reduce traffic, I tried to use jpegli to compress my images before upload. However, it turns out that the files which end up in the post on the server tend to be 10 to 20% bigger than what I uploaded (and the additional lossy recompression pass didn't exactly improve the quality either), eating up all the advantage I got from jpegli in the first place...

    Is this just a limit of the web interface, or did I miss something? Would a direct upload be possible on API level? If so, are there any tools/apps which allow this?

  4. damn my brain is really steaming over this- so I suppose this #Pixelfed @piaille.fr account is just my actual... #Mastodon account, that I can follow on the #PixelfedApp but not log into...?

    Is that correct ? Am I doing something wrong ? 🧠💨 #PixelfedHelp #MastodonHelp

  5. wait a second- just found my @piaille.fr account on #Pixelfed with a bunch of my already posted images, captions and all (??)

    I'm not sure I understand what's going on ? I couldn't log into the app using my #mastodon server piaille.fr, but I guess I have through desktop a while back (?)

    Could anyone who's a little tech savvy help a gal out ? 🥴 I don't know why I can't access my main account on the #PixelfedApp

  7. Owwwwwww 🫣 I made a mistake while making a collection on #Pixelfed :pixelfed:

    I accidentally added a snap to a collection (pressed the wrong one by mistake).

    Is there a way to take it out of that collection again? As I could not find the option...

    Thanks in advance! :blobcatflower:

  8. Dear #Fediverse inhabitants. Does anyone of you publish via #Pixelfed? If so, how do you do it? Via the browser or through special apps? If so, which ones?

    I can't seem to get the #Android app to work properly that I installed through #fdroid and feel, that I'm stuck with using @pixelfed through a browser currently... Thanks for any hints. #mastohelp e. g. #pixelfedhelp ;)

  9. @exil_inselette @Mina hm, in der Hinsicht ist es ein wenig dünn. Es gibt da diese Seite, aber ich finde sie nicht sonderlich aufschlussreich:
    pixelfed.org/
    Und das Help Center bei Pixelfed.Social:
    pixelfed.social/site/help
    Wikipedia hat auch was:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixelfed
    Vielleicht am besten: ein Artikel, der Pixelfed beschreibt: dataconomy.com/2022/11/08/what

  10. I think this qualifies as a #fedihelp question, also a #PixelfedHelp

    Can you move #Pixelfed instances (similar to moving to another Mastodon instance, which I’ve done)?

    Want to move instances from #pxlmo to make use of pixelfed.social’s IG import, and want to move my follows and my vast* number of followers with me.

    Web searches are leaving me with a bunch of others asking the question but no answers.

    * it is not vast at all

  11. Argh!! How on earth do you do line breaks on Pixelfed? Every single time I put in text description, it gets posted as this giant block of text that's horrible to read... I need the paragraphs I can see on others' posts, but I can't see to make them! Help! Do they not work when posting from a desktop?

  12. Does #PixelFed have an issue with following #Mastodon accounts? I signed up for one to move the more heavily art things I follow there, but I've tried two different mastodon instances and neither can be found. I've tried both putting the person's @@ aver the / in the Pixelfed url, and following with my @@ on their mastodon page. A bit confused.
