You know what's pretty cool?
@nprofile…u6df, the developer of https://divine.video sent a pull request to Loops to improve federation between Divine and Loops.
This is the magic of the open social web.
Collaboration and connection, no matter where you are.
You love to see it ❤️

I spent 7 years working on Pixelfed almost every day, and in the past 18 months we've went from 200k users to over 1 million!
Some could argue the break after FediCon to build Loops was a mistake, but the fediverse needed a solid short video platform and I didn't want to force that on Pixelfed.
Now this summer belongs to Pixelfed.
Stay tuned, I want to improve the web and mobile apps for the next million or ten million new Pixelfed members 🚀

ATProto has done an amazing job in terms of attracting developers with extensive documentation and easy to use SDKs/libraries.
I think ActivityPub can do this too, we're a bit more fragmented, and it does seem that individual developers can build and ship faster than the ActivityPub stewards/orgs.
So I've been working on my own take, in between my other projects, to build a powerful resource that best explains ActivityPub for devs with real code examples and demos.
It just takes one person 🚀

Loops.video isn't TikTok, your account will be suspended for violating our policies by sharing extreme right-wing content.
Before you claim free speech, it's a bit different in Canada 😉
"Freedom of speech in Canada guarantees freedom of thought, belief, opinion, and expression, including press freedom. While fundamental to democracy, this right is not absolute and is subject to "reasonable limits" under Section 1, such as restrictions on hate speech, defamation, and obscenity."

I don't believe AR filters are harmful, but a few people in my replies do.
You can record a video with the new Loops Camera, using an AR filter, then save it to your camera roll and never upload it to Loops, allowing you to share it with anyone.
This isn't that different from editing a photo in my opinion, what do you think?

21 years ago I "borrowed" my parents credit card to sign up for shared hosting and buy a domain during my BoonEx Dolphin era.
19 years ago (2007), I used my own credit card after turning 18 to start my own social network for our high school using BoonEx Dolphin. It was called iDope lol and had a few hundred users.
8 years ago, I started Pixelfed and started a journey to build my own social network from scratch.
I never thought I'd ever build one myself.
And now I'm living that dream! 🚀

I owe so much to @nprofile…246t for funding Pixelfed as their first fediverse project back in 2019.
I would've been homeless if it wasn't for them, and expediting my first milestone RFP.
A year ago we exploded and had to scale up, it was expensive, and that is where a large part of our Kickstarter funds were spent.
I'm now looking at dedicated hosting to reduce costs significantly, as it's not sustainable.
I hate to ask, but we could use more support:

We're funded by you ❤️

2026-02-23 10:57:49 CET

Yeah, I've made mistakes. Real ones. I own that.
What I also own: 8 years of open fediverse work, fully open sourcing Loops, and doing the hard work of making things right with people I hurt.
I'm embarrassed by who I was then. I'm proud of who I'm becoming.
I'm still here. Still building. Still learning.

I just spent the past few hours fixing a few bugs related to Account Status state in Loops.
Basically, we allow admins to suspend accounts, users to disable or delete their account, but we add a 30 day delay before we process the deletion.
Users can login during the 30 day period, and we have to reinstate their data and connections.
Handling this is tricky, because we do cache trending tag feeds and other data. It also broke some app screens.
Now it's fixed 🤘

If Loops supported non-public visibility settings too, and we implemented local-only, unlisted, local-only unlisted and follower only, are there any others you'd like to see?
Off the top of my head, I can think of a "password protected" scope that is local-only and unlisted, and requires a specific password (that can be pre-filled via query params) to view.

Loops urls are apparently not favoured by app developers because they don't look like urls from other software.
That's okay.
It's intentional, we don't include usernames in urls because we plan to support username changes, and our comment permalinks are shorter than a Mastodon actor url, and it's gorgeous.

Loops is federating with Mastodon and Pixelfed 🥳
I'm still doing some tests, and will be pushing the ActivityPub PR shortly ✨

Big day for Loops & ActivityPub!

The fediverse needs better developer resources. The kind ATProto has.
Fixing that gap: rich documentation, interactive examples, instant prototyping.
Built indie-style with FediDB, browser.pub and other community resources to create a better foundation for the next generation of fediverse developers.
Sometimes one spark is all it takes. Share if you care ✨

So Loops has public hashtag feeds, but they are limited for guests, and after reaching the end of the limited feed, will show this modal instead of what Pixelfed does (which is only show 20 posts per tag even though there are more).
I think it's a much better UX, and while I'd love to provide infinite scroll feeds for guests, it would be easily abused by (AI) crawlers.
Privacy and Safety come first 😎

Loops now included in Yunohost app directory 🥳
https://apps.yunohost.org/app/loops
Special thanks to @nprofile…hpcw for making this possible!

2025-09-30 16:34:53 CEST

Finished another marathon Loops coding sesh and made a lot of progress!
- raised phpstan to level 5 with 0 issues
- implemented outgoing activities
- added a new Autolinker that properly handles mentions and hashtags
- fixed outgoing captions to match Mastodon html
- refactored audience handling
- finished the sharedInbox logic
Will be testing this tomorrow in prod, to catch any bugs and then I can ship this Loops ActivityPub support 🚀

@nprofile…359z technically loops.video does federate, see @nprofile…pyxe, however the open source version (which loops.video will eventually transition over to) doesn't support it yet.

2025-09-10 11:23:19 CEST

@nprofile…359z Correct, I’m nearly ready to test this package on Loops and should have some exciting updates to share by the weekend.
It has to be fully implemented with support for the most popular fedi platforms before I release it, I don’t want to ship partial support like I did with Pixelfed initially, learned my lesson from that.

2025-09-10 08:07:37 CEST

The Laravel ActivityPub package I'm currently writing for Loops brings a lot of benefits like improved test coverage, custom Activity support, modular (opt-in) features/extensions and extensive logging for debugging.
Will make it a lot easier to implement FEPs like Follower Sync, without impacting existing package users.
Best of all, it's batteries included, meaning you can add ActivityPub support to a Laravel project in a few minutes ✨

TikTok policy rumors suggest political creators might need a new home soon. 👀
Loops has been building exactly what they need.
Sometimes timing is everything.

Revolutionary idea: What if social media platforms actually let you control your data?
@nprofile…0ghv does, with full data exports, retention controls & opt-in analytics.
The future of social is open-source ❤️
(and federated 🚀)

Once I get caught up with Pixelfed + Loops, I will finish the FediDB Software Version tracker.
It's pretty powerful, and useful to admins, devs and even users.
Soon 😉

BlueSky blocked Mississippi because #HB1126 would force them to age-gate everyone.
Why should fediverse instances escape that same fate? Decentralization isn’t immunity.

❌ Custom Emoji
✅ Custom Story Stickers
Pixelfed admins will be able to add custom Story Stickers for local users to use.
They are embedded in the image, no special federation support required ✨

Man #Views is such a legendary album, no skips just hits.
Drake never misses, some of you thought he lost the beef with Kendrick, only for the facts to come to light.

Don't get along man, we tried it
What's the point in even trying?
I hate a goofy especially
They always dying to mention me
They gotta die out eventually
I cannot give you the recipe
You know the game is sold separately
My enemies wanna be friends with my other enemies
I don't let it get to me

Guys, you have to see this demo of Stories, we're so close to shipping the next biggest fediverse medium: ephemeral content.

Hate full screen Stories? We hear you.
Pinch to adjust your image however you want. Backgrounds, text, mentions, links - all there when you need them.
Your Story, your way.
TestFlight arriving soon, admins stay tuned ✨

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.
@nprofile…qj8a is doing Stories ethically - no tracking, no ads, just authentic sharing.
The future is federated. ❤️

You will be able to share your Pixelfed posts to your Story with one tap.
You will also be able to share Stories in DMs.
We will bring back the DM button to the app feed so you can easily share posts in DMs.
We have so much potential with all these features, now we need to make them more connected.
The future of Pixelfed isn't just our chronological feed, but also to build places to share directly with your people.
Sup will play a major role too.
Stay tuned ✨

It's easy to build a grid layout for photos.
It's hard to convince people to use it.
A grid doesn't make you Instagram.
The secret is making photo sharing engaging for everyone, with tools like Stories and Portfolios that respect the art of photography.
Otherwise it's just Twitter with pics.

Did you know I built Polls into Stories when I originally released the feature 4 years ago, but at the last minute I decided against enabling Poll support because it wasn't polished enough?
https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/pull/2895
I was waiting for the right time.
Now that time has come. 😎

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! 🙏 ✨

@nprofile…z8ge Hey! Hope you're doing well, and wanted to know if we could schedule a chat or voice chat to discuss Stories + Story federation sometime soon!
I think it would be super cool to demo cross story federation between our projects, I have to update our docs to describe the new layer features and stuff, but I could help you implement the backend logic if needed!
https://docs.pixelfed.org/spec/ActivityPub.html#add-1

2025-08-19 11:24:57 CEST

Stories aren't for everyone, so we will make them easy to completely disable in our Pixelfed app!

Finishing the Stories Carousel is the last major task before shipping Stories to our mobile app (TestFlight first).
We’re caching the carousel today and invalidating on Story view/create, but that’s a poor UX. I’m building a Redis-backed fanout + view state service that will generate carousels on-demand, cutting latency and scaling cleanly.

I will stop posting songs + lyrics, that is what Stories are for 😅
I have experimented with speech-to-text, but it's pretty complicated, though I do want to support AutoCaptions in Stories and on Loops using on-device models, so I will continue R&D 😎
