Building in the fediverse for 7+ years has shown me that all feedback comes from people who genuinely care about decentralized social media. That's what keeps me motivated. The tough accountability moments, like open letters to cancel funding, have made me grow as a leader, and leadership growth is crucial for building successful projects and thriving ecosystems. This community is so worth fighting for. I'm proud to be part of it and committed to being a better leader. โค๏ธ #accountability
Building personalized feeds for ActivityPub is hard. Small Loops instances don't have enough signals to power recommendations effectively. That's why I'm developing @npub102mw...2qff to store cross-instance engagement patterns and serve video recommendations via open APIs. Think BlueSky's PDS but for algorithmic discovery. Open source, of course. You will be able to use our ActivityRank service or run your own โœจ #loops #fyp #fediverse

Seeing an influx of spam from a few big Mastodon servers, perfect timing for FediThreat to ship along with the big Stories release! It's going to be a busy and fun weekend ๐Ÿš€ #fediverse #threatIntel
Stories might be our most complex feature yet (harder than Collections, Groups, Portfolios combined). But they're everywhere - Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn. People expect them. Love them or hate them, they're how we share moments. @pixelfed is doing Stories ethically - no tracking, no ads, just authentic sharing. The future is federated. โค๏ธ #pixelfed #stories #ethicalAlternatives #theFutureIsFederated #fediverse #activitypub
Pixelfed Stories are one of the most anticipated features, with high expectations. I understand this and am working hard to make them perfect for you. Smooth animations, beautiful design, and the polished experience you deserve. Your patience means everything! ๐Ÿ™ โœจ #pixelfed #Stories
