Pixelfed remains the only fediverse project with a sole developer*, and I'm doing my best to balance everything 😅

My schedule for the next few weeks involves:

- new pixelfed.org
- new mobile app features
- android beta
- new fedidb.org
- federated discovery
- federation bug fixes
- improving backend scalability

* - frontend/backend/mobile app development

@dansup I think, the mobile app should be the ultimate priority seeing as how everyone I recommend pixelfed to first asks "where is the mobile app"?

Dude, you’re a fucking superhero, OK? Start posting links to your Patreon, etc. a bit more so we can boost them, and then think about all the other things that need doing.

@dansup I am also a fediverse project sole developer, but since my project is aimed at small scale there are some things that I don't need to be concerned about. Most of what I'm doing now is maintenance, polishing and documentation.

@dansup from what I can tell you’re doing a great job. You should be proud. 👍🏻

you'd probably be faster with a few more hands... A little slower at first but way more efficient on long term.

Why would you rather stay alone (if that's a choice at all) ?

@dansup Is that by choice? Surely there's other devs wanting to work on #Pixelfed?

@dansup@mastodon.social You're doing a great job and I like Pixelfed! But there is at least one more developer who is developing his current fediverse project ​(streams) on his own:  @mike@unfediverse.com the wizard :-)

This whole chest-thumping exercise reminds me that just last night I was in a restaurant where the waitress entered the order on a handheld tablet device at the table and it was instantly relayed to the cooks and the inventory control software and somebody brought part of my order out while she was still making her way around the tables. I worked on (and delivered) a system to do exactly that back in 1983. At that time there were no touch-screens, no wi-fi, and the internet was still a government funded research project. We were dreamers and we made it happen.

Dansup: I just installed pixelfed last night and am not seeing cross posts between my pixelfed and mastodon instances. Is this a known thing? Or do I have some bug research and reporting to do?

@dansup Hey! I just wanna ask if pixel uses matrix which in returns collect too many data than any? So, how its a foss alternative. We should own the data.

@dansup Thanks for Pixelfed! Loving it so far. I have a question. I signed up on the Pixelfed.social instance, and tried to follow my Pixelfed account from within Mastadon.

But, when I check it on my Following list, it shows as “pending,” as if it’s waiting for me to approve it on the Pixelfed side.

I duplicated this behaviour on another instance (federated.photos).

How do I get the follow to be confirmed, rather than pending?
