I was a member of the beta, and one thing that app really needs is a dark mode.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

~~It has a dark mode now (on iOS, at least. Maybe they’ve got a different codebase for Android)~~

Edit: Scratch that. Only the login flow has dark mode.

I hope they also add a feature for short video clips.

you gotta keep ’em separated

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago (2 children)

did you know the singer for the offspring came up with that line when he was working in lab- he was making petri dishes and you make them hot and then cool them to a certain temperature.. so he was trying to wrap up and the petri dishes weren't cooling down quickly enough, so he moved them all apart to allow air to flow between them and kept saying "you gotta keep em seperated" in his head, and then used this one riff they had while they were working on the album with that line. come out and play was the last song they made for that album

I thought this was shit post or copy pasta but I'll be damned. He did come up with that line while cooling Erlenmeyer flasks.

Hey, man, you talkin' back to me?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Hey! Man you disrespectin' me?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

oooooOOOOOoooo!!! I didn't even know about this. But yes.

I haven't been able to upload any videos.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Keep your reels off Pixelfed please. Use loops.video instead.

Pixelfed is a photo sharing platform

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You don't think Pixelfed should have reels?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yes, Pixelfed should 100% definitely not have reels. Reels and videos belong on something like loops.video or Peertube and not on Pixelfed.

Then allow users from one platform to use their ID on the other.

In fact, using fediverse social networks made me realize how much I could use a single point of identification for all the services. Like a fediverse passport or SSO.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I think some allow Mastodon login!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah you can log-in to Pixelfed with Mastodon. I didn't see the options for loops.video.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's still in beta, I'm sure it's on the backlog

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I don't know but that's what I did.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I couldn’t find it in the App Store. How do you get it?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pixelfed/id1632519816

Here’s the link. Oddly, it doesn’t show up for me either when I search for it.

The screencap in the article looks pretty dark to me? Is there something that needs to be dark that the example pic doesn't show? Asking as someone that turns everything to dark mode.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

As of now, the iOS app does not have a dark mode. Though, I believe the Android version does.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Weird. I feel like at some point I remember it having a dark mode on one or the other. Wonder when and why it was removed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It wasn't removed, there was never an app before.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Hi! There was actually an official Pixelfed client in beta before the current one written in react native. And it did have dark mode support as well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

No? Huh, I could have sworn I had downloaded an APK and just assumed it was the beta. Haven’t had an Android in a year, though, so I might just be misremembering or thinking of another app.
