Lmao I may have to pull an Elon and take over a pixelfed.social username for sup.
Unless you guys can come up with a better suggestion?
nostr:npub1ln54yvwdtp88j8cltkthe6kpaahdk0f60g56mfdx27tesdktev0st7737w really? "instant messenger, made by pixelfed? Why?
nostr:npub1gytuzep4ere35r3w3hrgands5kqjl2x854n68samq2mrqvwx74qq86qrzr because we have our own IM and I already wanted to abstract it to its own app for various reasons. Why are you asking?
breathalizer activitypub extension when???
excuse me sir, put the oauth keys in revoke and keep your hands off the wheel and STEP OUT OF THE THIRD PARTY CLIENT, AND PUT THOSE CREDENTIALS BEHIND YOUR BACK!
MAKE ANY SUDDEN MIGRATIONS AND I WILL BAN YOUR ASS
I got a bit too litty and was planning a fancy announcement for sup. but like this will do for my pixelfed mandem β€οΈ
so my goal with sup. is to make a federated snapchat/whatsapp that is compatible with most platforms.
This was originally going to be a Pixelfed specific Messenger-like app, but then it hit me - this is a perfect opportunity to create a sub project that could be eventually handed over to a trusted org.
sup. is an open source encrypted fediverse instant messenger, similar to whatsapp, made by pixelfed.
The beta will be launching later this month, and btw most fediverse accounts will work, not just Pixelfed π
ugh, figma stikes again
Pixelfed Stories are the most complicated production ActivityPub activity, and also the only one that uses bearcaps!
With the AR filters extension, there are now half a dozen Story related activities/side effects.
I'm working on the documentation and love the challenge, I brought Stories to the fediverse and I'm sure other platforms will follow π

Uh i was hoping for more photography features, but if this is the way the app is going....
nostr:npub1kjk7l9q8e757kea2w4y3czm6ffmhqt0h6ctst738p67ugrjjvt2s85p4dw Oh we have a lot of new photography features like EXIF, and new discovery tags. The AR filters stuff is only for creating Stories, and you will be able to completely hide Stories so you'll never have to see them or their side effects!
Trust me, we have a lot of really exciting features that I think you'll love!
Why do all the reddit alternatives look ugly, except for kbin?
Lemmy is almost as old as Pixelfed but it's still hella complicated UX wise.
I think kbin could become the major contender once the dev can focus on that again.
Compared to lemmy, kbin is much easier to use IMO and it's so much newer and only developed by a single person, I have high hopes for it!
nostr:npub1f4xn93afa80zq0ldxtnr2d7prap4455rrj9gujp0zfj5mcv8dtjqe3smrc nostr:npub120zh308gs69j3vwgvvrzgglv58vsk3q0vef43uajyu0lc3mtldsq2p33r2 yeah, it's not that complicated.
People can make their own filters for Snap and upload them, its the same format we use
FLO MILLI SHIT

nostr:npub12tyk735v52ju032qahe3k2r520jlsujaem6xr8n0ex6u7eqj0anq59vnqc
Is there anything you're not working on? π
nostr:npub120zh308gs69j3vwgvvrzgglv58vsk3q0vef43uajyu0lc3mtldsq2p33r2
nostr:npub1yr4zqrju0mmk6f0xfhh0d7gr66gwqu6tatgmv8jz3qmzpggqrutq729usu nostr:npub120zh308gs69j3vwgvvrzgglv58vsk3q0vef43uajyu0lc3mtldsq2p33r2 LMAO "everything" my boyfriend would say, not taking him out for dinner, or going to lame parties with his friends. I wish I could say I can do everything, but I took 2 years off Pixelfed when we started dating and thats why I promised the app in 2020 but didn't ship the beta till 2022.
Balance would be the answer, and I'm working on that π
The Augmented Reality filters will be similar to Snapchat filters, and use a similar format.
I'm working on the filter AP extension so that DM recipients will be able to use the same filter that they used
nostr:npub12tyk735v52ju032qahe3k2r520jlsujaem6xr8n0ex6u7eqj0anq59vnqc really hope you impliment srt or rist ingest. Game changer that would be rather than poor old rtmp(s)
nostr:npub1hcxry4n9s4mjw25qd6mg8pp8sxts5v2avdg0vxhk46ekhh0wmcqsa4f2vn rtmp is not going to be used anymore, we're moving on to something else!
So I'm not sure I announced this, but the new nostr:npub120zh308gs69j3vwgvvrzgglv58vsk3q0vef43uajyu0lc3mtldsq2p33r2 camera will have AR filters, like Snapchat/IG/TikTok
That's not all, I'm working on a standard to federate these filters!
And being able to go live, that will be cray, esp with realtime notifications (which is a whole udder ting) to your followers
Pixelfed Live + Stories will bring a whole new dimension to the fediverse, something that most people will actually use π
I can't wait to ship the new app Camera, imma post so many dumb stories π
