Yeah - if you don’t like a post you ‘reduce’ it, and if you do then you ‘thicken’ it.
Only kidding: they use ‘favourites’

Anything from https://lemmon.website is me too.

They call them ‘reduces’
I’m guessing it’s an artifact of them supporting both platforms like Lemmy (who’s users make Threads and Comments in Magazines) and platforms like Mastodon (who’s users make Posts and Replies in Microblogs).
If you don’t like that, you’re really not going to like what they call downvotes …
What Peertube needs is for other Fediverse platforms to build in a filter so only posts which contain video are displayed.
Latest PeerTube vids available on PieFed - should be quite handy hopefully, because - as you say - they normally get buried by any sort method that isn’t ‘New’
a.gup.pe tells us - they Announce the post the same way that !fediverse@lemmy.world Announced this post. I’m subscribed to both !photography@a.gup.pe and !fedivere@lemmy.world, so get content from both in the same way.
Yeah - those individual Mastodon posts were tagged with @photography@a.gup.pe
by their authors, and a.gup.pe picked up in the tag and made it part of the Group so PieFed could display it in a community.
For example: an original post was https://mastodon.social/@zhhz/113068522102706157 and how it appears on PieFed is https://piefed.social/post/225229
a.gup.pe is a 3rd-party effort to wrangle individual Mastodon posts into Groups, so that Group-based fediverse platforms can follow them (a more familiar term for Group is ‘community’).
Doesn’t look like it. There doesn’t seem to be much of anything about discovering compatible things on other fediverse platforms (e.g. MBIN magazines, a.gup.pe groups, pixelfed groups [if they even exist], PeerTube channels, discourse / hubzilla whatevers, Flipboard thingies, etc).
For PeerTube, a good discovery tool is https://fedi.video, but that also involves tootling around on some other instance and copy/pasting handles back to your own platform, so it’s not exactly that convenient.
It’d be every reply I think.
It’s partially fixable, by interacting with Mastodon the same way PeerTube does and have the community Announce only the posts. For everything else after that, it depends on whether the user is local or not. Anything a local user does could be sent directly, and if a remote user replied to a local user’s post, the local user could send a ‘post update’, for Mastodon to then retrieve the replies collection, circumventing the problem of us not having the remote user’s private keys. But if a remote user replied to a remote user’s post on a local community, they’d be nothing we could do about it (don’t have the keys for the ‘post update’, can’t Announce it without it being spammy either)
There’s not much in the way of communities on PieFed yet. The list is here: https://piefed.social/communities/local?sort_by=last_active%20desc
Following communities from Mastodon works about as well as following Lemmy ones - this is something I’d like to improve, but it’s only very recently that we got a community that wasn’t a meta / testing one. Following users is less spammy, 'cos you’ll get their posts, but not all their comments to other people’s posts, so maybe you could try following someone like Rimu.
Either way, Mastodon doesn’t process outboxes and backfill old stuff, so you’ll have to wait for something new to be posted.
I’ve only ever used Element for Android. The source is here: https://github.com/element-hq
In my experience it looks like a case of matrix clients not doing a good job of communicating that things happening in the background haven’t finished yet, and throwing generic error messages (a bit like lemmy-ui does sometimes).
I’ve been able to join invite-only rooms on other instances - it said ‘failed’ at first, but when I went back later it turned out that I had actually joined.
Yeah, it’s the strange thing about engaging post titles - people seem to be so busy answering them, they ‘forget’ to also upvote them. In contrast, a meme that’s funny but about which there’s not much to say, is more likely to get an upvote as some kind of compensation for the lack of discussion.
Lemmy and PeerTube hasn’t worked for a few months now - you’ll have to fetch the vids manually if you want 'em.
There nothing wrong from PT’s end - they fed with PieFed (e.g. the Linux experiment channel is here assuming your UI doesn’t redirect you), MBIN (I believe), and Mastodon, but some change in Lemmy broke something.
Old post about it: https://lemmy.ml/post/15180175
I seem to have stumbled into an argument that people are more passionate about than me. I mentioned I’d seen ‘active/passive’ used (in computer networking), and in that context, it ‘seems alright’ (in the sense of actively giving demands, vs. passively accepting them [and doing what it’s told, of course])
If someone has made good-faith request not to use certain terminology (like Master/Slave), then I’m generally more interested in finding acceptable alternatives than I am in dismissing their concerns outright. If, at the end of a proper search for alternatives, nothing suitable can be found, then fair enough. I’d question the idea that it’s really impossible to find something else though, but - for now at least - I’m sure that Dom/Sub isn’t it.
Yeah, you’re right, that was a clumsy word choice. My experience is mostly from watching The Duke of Burgundy tbh
I’ve seen ‘Active / Passive’ used, that seems alright. There’s plenty of alternative terms to use without borrowing terminology from sexual roleplay.
Anyway, the Sub is supposed to be the one that’s actually in control for this kind of thing (otherwise you’d just be in an abusive relationship), so that confuses things when you start trying to applying it elsewhere.
The ‘real user’ and the ‘private voter’ are 2 different accounts as far a external instances are concerned, but only 1 as far as piefed.social is concerned. So if you banned either one, it would have the same effect, because PF would locate the same account from the information provided.
Likewise, a piefed user can’t vote twice on something, they make one vote, and then the ‘private voting’ setting determines how it is sent out. The local system has tracked that they have voted, and changing the setting won’t change that.
There’s always more work to do of course, but piefed.social is a small instance, with manual approval required for registration, no API to script things like mass downvoting, and concepts such as ‘attitude’ which would prevent that anyway, so I can’t foresee anything too disastrous happening from this little experiment.
Random string, yeah, like https://piefed.social/u/WYJH5o7OGkbgtxA
All the other comments except from that one are from alien.top (Reddit users turned into bots), which your instance is defederated from.
