Getting creators paid via ethical monetization is how we go mainstream.
Platforms and admins taking a cut to remain sustainable is key, and how we can thrive.

2026-08-16 15:13:47 CEST

it do kinda be interesting how there is just an expectation with ActivityPub polls that how people voted will be private, most software doesn't expose that, but why?
for such a group of people that constantly demand transparency, this seems like a fix rather than a bug.
hmm... interesting...

Shoutout to Heroicons, Boxicons, Feather and ionicons ❤️
It just isn't working out for me, and it's not you, it's me.
I still love you though.

Talking about unifying, I need to design my own Loops icon set because using 4 font families across web and mobile isn't it.
It would be a lot of fun though 🤔

2026-08-16 13:50:52 CEST

I am really proud of the Loops webUI, it's evolved along with my tailwind and vue3 skills, and I can't wait to ship the new Pixelfed webUI because it's even more beautiful.

One thing that stood out at #FediCon was hearing devs mention seeing @npub1764…nuj0 at conference after conference.
I can’t think of a better ambassador for the fediverse than the person who started it nearly 20 years ago.
From [@swf](https://socialwebfoundation.org ) and #SWICG to supporting E2EE work with @npub14rp…za3l, @npub17gq…8hhz and more, Evan keeps showing up.
That kind of long-term stewardship matters. ❤️

2026-08-14 14:44:13 CEST

Starting a new Loops instance comes with a classic problem: no people means no content, and no content makes it harder to attract people.
So I built an official Loops relay, proudly funded by @npub1n8y…l96n.
Enable it with one tap and your instance can start receiving content from the trusted, moderated loops.video network.
Federation without the cold start problem.
It’s not magic. It’s simplicity. ✨

I won't abandon Android folks for my Pixelfed, Loops and Sup apps.
It may have seemed like that because I struggled so hard with Android, but if you've used the new Loops app, you can see how far I've come!
I do have a dev account, that will support sideloading, and want to get my apps in the official F-Droid repos, without Google APIs and support for UnifiedPush

2026-08-14 12:17:40 CEST

The fediverse.info website has a "Get Started" button in the header.
It takes you to https://jointhefediverse.net, an amazing resource by @npub1kqc…7wgd

Flagship fediverse servers are fundamental to the growth of our network.
They don't shutdown without notice, and generally are more trusted and actively moderated and updated.
That being said, as a dev/admin of two flagship servers, it's our responsibility to build and support FULL account migration to other servers, and with LOLA, I'm confident we can do this right.

And why did I "abandon" Pixelfed to build Loops?
Short video is the fastest growing form of social media, PeerTube wasn't it and we all know that.
PeerTube is the fediverse YouTube.
The fediverse needs a TikTok.
Someone had to do it, why not the guy who told @npub1s20…twmm in 2023, that his Goldfish (TikTok) project would never work. Only to prove myself wrong, and also, that led Stux to a very successful game dev career!
It all worked out in the end, and Pixelfed will soon be refreshed big time 🚀

2026-08-01 14:37:23 CEST

I didn't forget Pixelfed.
I spent 8 years building it, almost daily.
I took the past year off to take a Pixelfed feature from 2019 called Loops, and spin it out to its own project, after seeing how poorly Instagram Reels was received.
Loops almost became a Pixelfed feature, but that would mean breaking a big promise in Pixelfed: No Algorithms
Loops needs an algorithmic For You feed.
Pixelfed doesn't.
That's why they are separate.
Just wait, the Pixelfed updates will exceed expectations 🚀

In 1968 Dijkstra declared GOTO statements harmful.
In 2021 someone built them an entire social network anyway.
GotoSocial is a lightweight #ActivityPub server that can run on a potato, blocks scrapers by default, and with privacy defaults that would get a product manager fired at any real company.
Now it's one of the fastest growing on the fediverse.
Built by @npub1jvs…9663 under the name Super Serious Business, which is the most honest branding in tech right now.

The fediverse is comprised of many unique pockets of communities, many inspired by big existing platforms.
When it comes to the fediverse Tumblr, #WAFRN is exactly that, but more.
What sounds like a biological weapon, is actually a clever acronym "We Allow Female Representing Nipples", a direct shot at Tumblr and their misogynistic moderation policies.
Kudos to @npub1742…fh8m for freeing the nipple, keep it weird folks, we don't have VCs to appease!

The thing about the fediverse is that when one of us wins, we all win.
I couldn't be more proud to work alongside so many talented people who share the same belief: together we're stronger, and there's so much more we can build.
The corporate platforms had a decade and billions of dollars on us. They still can't build the one thing we did: a network nobody owns, nobody can sell, and nobody can take away.
A social home for the people. By the people.

When X, Meta and TikTok relaxed their rules on hate speech, racism and transphobia, they didn't undermine the open social web.
They proved why this needs to exist.
Safety and mental health come first here. They're the foundation everything else stands on.
Not optional. Not negotiable. The vulnerable come first, always.
I have a roadmap to improve this, and I'll soon be asking for your feedback to make these spaces safer for the people who need them most.

hey @npub1kqc…7wgd !
You've done an amazing job with https://jointhefediverse.net, I'd like to link to it and discuss ways we can collaborate more on this together.
It's super important that we have multiple resources to ensure we serve the community without my own personal bias (which I've been very careful about), and provide the best onboarding experience.
Let's chat soon ❤️

I assume you mean cloudflare? They provide protection that few other provides do, it's kinda essential at this scale.

2026-06-29 17:48:33 CEST

the new https://fediverse.info will also index public starter kits from Loops and featured collections from Mastodon 🔥
you will also be able to add yourself to the people directory by including #fedi22 in your bio (yes, we're the reason this exists), and to remove yourself, simply remove it from your profile and then request removal, we will check it's been removed and remove your account.
Consent is crucial, that's why we require the #fedi22 hashtag in bios for verification ❤️

The new https://fediverse.info will be a powerful onboarding resource, and is shipping later this week!

ooh, that would be perfect, perhaps we could just use tagspub for this?

Pixelfed has a related hashtags feature, and I'm thinking maybe we should create a global corpus to help curate them.
What do you think?

I met so many amazing people at #fedicon last summer, and had a blast seeing the people behind so many amazing initiatives and projects.
I was also very fortunate to work with @npub16d5…u6mu on the https://fedicon.ca website, and get one of two coveted keynote slots.
So I made a new FediCon 2026 website to give back, pending his approval, it will be live soon!

Starting a new ActivityPub project in 2026 is way more challenging than it was back in 2018.
Not because of added ActivityPub complexity, but how challenging it is to attract users and keep them coming back.
You can't get away with just a webUI, people expect apps, and with AI anyone can do what would take me months or years in days or weeks.
Community is the moat. Trust and awareness are key as well.
Don't let that stop you. Keep building 💪

database migrations and fediverse instances, name a more iconic duo!
at least you don't have a 264GB statuses table, I want to move comments and boosts to separate tables without breaking existing APIs and causing downtime.
it's not fun, but it's part of the job 💪

pixelfed.social registration is closed until further notice
we will open registrations once we ship some new autospam detection measures to handle the influx of spammers and bad actors.
pixelfed admins: I suggest you close registrations, or use curated onboarding mode until these updates ship next week.

every loops video ships with open formats anyone can build on.
authless apis and alt formats like ATOM are why the fediverse welcomes so many kinds of people.

Don't get me wrong, a lot of fediverse developers do not want millions of users, they are designing their software carefully for them and people like them.
I'm a dreamer, and love to think bigger, and build platforms with millions and even billions of people.
Both types of devs and projects can thrive, because we give the people control and power.
That is what matters, nobody can control this, not even me or mastodon.social
The protocol is the true power.

watch gen alpha discover perl and irc as they grow up and become the next 80's era hackers.
I can see it, gen-z is obsessed with the 90's so it only makes sense.
the proliferation of AI and ads will drive a surprising number of youth to rebel by embracing earlier tech without smartphones, while millennials remain addicted to Facebook and other web 2.0 platforms.
such an ironic twist of fate.

oh interesting, I wonder if @npub1zu5…pytj or @npub1jcp…927t could provide any insight into this from Mastodons side.

I'm rebuilding the Pixelfed mobile app from scratch to leverage a cleaner and more maintainable UI, using native UI components on Android and iOS.
This isn't only about performance, making the app less complex and easier to use and with improved caching and backend error handling will drastically improve the UX.
Not to mention the ability to join or login with a single tap using Sign in with Apple or Google 🚀
You're going to love it ✨

Folks, please be nice to BlueSky.
You don't want to be labelled as a critic, and kindly remember they are really decentralized and only took $100+ million in venture capital to improve the social web.
Last but not least, don't pay attention to the CEO responding to criticism by responding with "Are you paying us? Where?" followed up with "You could try a posters strike. I hear that works".
They are great. ATProto is the future. They aren't like other girls.
They care ❤️
