has proven to be a very useful fediverse resource.
Thanks to @npub1jvsw...9663 for helping me address some robots.txt crawler bugs!
I'm thrilled to announce that I'm nearly finished rewriting FediDB's frontend, and will be publishing the source code finally as we migrate away from the current paid theme which prevented that.
I look forward to working with the community to steward this resource!
More details to follow ✨

I was able to secure the last Gold tier Mastodon pledge! 🎉
About time, I owe so much to Mastodon and their iconic journey of decentralizing Twitter.
I don't think Bluesky, Pixelfed or Lemmy would exist without Mastodon. Their project gave us a blueprint for what's possible.
Kudos @npub163hd...mv0n & @npub1vl7j...f6g0, you inspired a whole generation of dreamers like me. Standing on the shoulders of giants ❤️
Help support Mastodon ➡️
Wouldn't it be cool if you could make a Custom Filter on Pixelfed with dozens of keywords, and mark it as public and sharable.
Send the link to your friends and with one tap, they can import it.
By default, Filters will remain private, but I think this could work well.
It would be an ActivityPub collection, and consumable by remote/non-pixelfed servers ✨
wdyt?
So the most challenging thing about implementing custom filters is making them easy to use for users, this is just too complicated.
I need to speak with our design team and work on a simple mode, we can keep this for an advanced mode.

Pixelfed will soon support server-side filters, allowing you to block keywords, hashtags and phrases.
Filters are based on the powerful Mastodon v2 filters API, and will be fully compatible. ✨

A powerful new photo editor is coming to Pixelfed! ✨
Draw, Crop, Filters, Stickers and Text
Available soon in our upcoming Stories feature 🥳

So the ffmpeg library I was using for Loops was recently retired due to patents.
I spent a few hours preparing our own build to maintain support, and have forked the library and may need to pickup the torch to maintain support with newer ffmpeg versions. Oh yay.
The things we do for open source 😅
