Yes, those image layouts are fantastic for art communities! It definitely still has a lot of rough edges, UI wise.
I think he's made some good strides with the mod tools, as seen here: https://piefed.social/post/167045
I'm glad we have a couple promising alternatives, and it'll be exciting to see how they evolve differently ^^
Oh wow, community wikis with version history even - that's fantastic.
Best of all though seems to be that it is in a language that people actually use - no disrespect to Rust bc it's arguably the best, certainly the hottest language right now, but it definitely seems to be limiting progress that so few people are willing to learn it.
I think it's also worth highlighting how PieFed interactions with other fediverse services. Both a.gup.pe groups and PeerTube channels integrate super well, and you can follow them like any other community.
In practice, this means that content from technology content creators posted on PeerTube will appear directly within the technology topic; videos posted to flipboard.video are pushed directly to the fediverse topic. Discussions and upvotes are, of course, federated directly to PeerTube.
As I love the potential of PeerTube but find it lacking in discoverability, this is something I really love.
I am glad to see this level of interactivity. At the same time, I hope it doesn't try to do too much at once - like trying to be all things to all people holding it back too much from moving forward in any one lane, if that makes sense?
On the other hand, the developer can do whatever they want, so I totally get working on the exciting stuff, especially if they (unlike Ernst) are amenable to allowing others to flesh in the details for the stuff that they enjoy less.
Wow, the more I learn about it, the more exciting it seems!? Thanks for sharing that.:-)
is this like a hashtag?
I guess the main difference is that once you tag a.gup.pe, your post gets relayed to all followers of the group - independent of whether they are already federated with you. So kind of like hashtags, but it allows content to travel further.
