PieFed help

I noticed on PieFed user profiles is an Attitude percentage. My attitude is 97%. What is this, and is 97% good or bad?

Firefox user here.

I was a bit surprised when I tried to get to the URL bar / search with Ctrl+L / Ctrl+K that those browser hotkeys were captured by PIeFed. I think it's nice to have keyboard shortcuts for those who prefer them, but it should probably be something that can be toggled off, or perhaps even opt-in by default.

Thanks for your time.

I see next to my name a circle thing. Like a loading circle, except it doesn't spin, and all the ticks are lit up.

What is that?

I've also seen next to other users two symbols of an exclamation point inside a red triangle. Like a warning. But what's it mean?

I've never used peertube, and don't have a seperate account. I'm under the impression that I can use THIS account as my peertube account. I just have no idea how that works.

Trying to add [email protected] so I can subscribe to it from this account, and I get this message:

An unexpected error has occurred

Sorry for the inconvenience! Please let us know about this, so we can repair it and make PieFed better for everyone.

I figure this is the place to do that?

I should have thought to ask this earlier, sorry. This is only the beta test of the software, and I just recently noticed the instance isn't super active so far. It occurred to me that maybe y'all aren't ready for anyone to treat this as home just yet? Will we be overtaxing the system if we post/subscribe too much, or have to worry about all our stuff disappearing from breaking updates/migration/etc? It's such a nice platform I just started moving right in without thinking about it!

I want to view [email protected] and [email protected] in "gallery mode" like [email protected] for example, how do I go about doing that?

Is it possible to cross-post articles ? If so, how ?

I've installed PyFedi and did the things outlined in the INSTALL.txt

flask db migrate
flask init-db

Now when I add communities or posts, English is the only option for language. And I've looked into the PostgreSQL database... It's just two rows in the language table, Undetermined and English.

Did I do something wrong? Is that supposed to happen? How can I add all the other languages, because on piefed.social there is a long list of options available.

When I go to Admin -> Site Profile -> Icon and choose a .webp or a .png picture and click the Save button at the bottom, I get a message at the top Settings saved. but the Icon is not changed anywhere. Not in the top left, not the favicon and so on. Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding the functionality?

Hello, i am just having a look around piefed. I was surprised to find out that my main account has a low rep. It wasn't easy to find another person with low rep, actually only was able to find one other after briefly looking for it. Now i am kind of offended, haha.

I added some communities. When i added [email protected] and [email protected] the communities were empty. I guess that is as expected, since the federation only starts from now on i guess? For some reason though, when i added [email protected] it shows all the posts, just no comments and no votes. How did this happen? Same for the [email protected] comm.

I wonder how communities end up in topics? Where is this being curated?

It would be nice if there was a language setting for the piefed UI. I guess it is just going by browser default? I could not find an issue regarding this at codeberg. Maybe i just didn't find the setting and it's there?

I tried posting this topic a few minutes ago, to the piefed help comm. While viewing the piefed help comm i clicked "create post" and typed along. After sending, i realized that piefed created the post in [email protected]. I think that happened because i had not yet subscribed to the piefed help comm. That was very confusing, pretty sure it also only said "fediverse" in the commuinity field, which is also a bit too little information maybe, could have been [email protected] too. That was a bit awkward.

Piefed looks pretty cool though, i like it!

Hi all,

First of all thanks for the great work. It is really nice to see a project in a language I understand :) Also, I'm very grateful for the video walkthrough of the codebase!

Anyhow, before I did a local install I thought of trying the online version and poke around a little to understand the features. I made a community for the sake of testing (https://piefed.social/c/trolley_problems)) but it won't let me use the "moderate" or "settings" functions. Is that because my account is new?

Hello I managed to follow my profile on mastodon.social ok but on mastodon.tn it does not open is it possible to associate mastodon.tn with the server piefed.social Thank you

Hello I can't share articles on my https://mastodon.social and https://mastodon.tn profile is there a specific action?

1- Is it possible to search communities?

I mean as in typing the communities' names or the topic they're based around in a search bar. I don't seem to find it.

2- IS there a way to add Alt Text to profile pictures/avatars and banners?

I'm trying to add my PieFed account to Memmy (an iOS Lemmy client). I was able to add my midwest.social account as expected.

Does anyone use PieFed with client apps?

I just tried to create an account, JoeGermuska but got an error that the username was in use.

Today is the first I've heard of PieFed but before I tried to make that, I joined the meta community as https://midwest.social/u/JoeGermuska -- I wonder if that had anything to do with it?

Also, while my subscription from that account is no longer pending, there are no posts showing. But it's only been 5-10 minutes so maybe that's just how federation works?

I assume we should be able to follow PieFed accounts from other fediverse servers? Our user here would be @[HTML_REMOVED]@piefed.social ?

I tried following me elsewhere and could not. Maybe that's not available yet, or is limited.

Anyone else tried following?

I tried following from various Mastodon, Firefish, IceSchrimp, Sharkey, Misskey accounts. All never complete a follow.

I will submit as a bug if I know others have the same issue. Perhaps it is me being stupid.

thanks

PieFed developer here, let me know about any problems you have, or if it's an obvious bug create an issue in the code repository.

Cheers!
