ActivityPub can be confusing and/or hard to test or develop against.
I started a new side project called FediDB to help Pixelfed and other implementations debug federation issues.
It will be launching soon, need to test DMs and Federated Stories in Pixelfed 😅
I'm eager to work with other projects on this!

PSA - COSTARS has been disabled in the latest commits.
We have found a few bugs in COSTARS that impacted new Pixelfed instances.
We expect a fix to ship in the next few days, sorry about the inconvenience!
Building an invite feature seemed pretty easy until we got to the small details like
- Unsubscribe for non-users
- Email/Notification Settings
- Limiting potential abuse
- Onboarding invited users with a new registration experience
- Privacy law compliance (we only send password reset/account confirmations atm)
- Invite Auto-Follow
We are pretty excited to ship this feature 😁
⚠️ Docker PSA 🚨
We will be shipping a new docker setup with breaking changes in v0.10.10 (v0.10.9 is not released yet).
For more information on breaking changes please see https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/pull/2049
Our latest commits include a fix for mobile app users, remote post previews work as expected and no longer display the "No Preview Available" placeholder.
⚠️ ------- PSA ------- ⚠️
If you run an instance with a postgres database, you should update as we've shipped many bug fixes.
Moderation is important, we've overhauled a few admin dashboard pages.
This will be shipping later this week!

⚠️ PSA ⚠️
Federated Stories will be shipping in v0.10.9!
The beta will be shipped soon, update to v0.10.8 ASAP to prepare. 😉
We understand some people may want to use Pixelfed with family and friends in a closed environment.
Restricted Mode will allow you to require authentication for every page and disable federation support with a single command.
It will be shipping in the next version! #pixelfed
Not only is the UI more cleaner but results will be rendered based on context.
Collections, Discover Categories, Loops, Places, Remote Post and Webfinger search will also be supported 😉
Project Delta is a monorepo that powers pixelfed.org, beta.joinpixelfed.org, px03-camo.pixelfedcdn.com and soon docs.pixelfed.org + translate.pixelfed.org
I'm having so much fun working on this 😁
