Are there any apps that support topics and feeds?

I've been looking at the WebCrypto API. When combined with the File system API, it can be used to encrypt and store files on your device storage in what seems to be a pretty secure way.

Min @fdroid havde en opdatering til OSMand~ og Danmark kort / regioner opdateret i app 😀

Right now even on best Fdroid stores (like Neostore) it's too easy to miss good apps and you mostly get recent releases of very simples apps. Would be cool if we'd make some kind of foss app ratings, does anyone know some ?

I know other devs interested in making Tux games but before I begin with them I figured I would ask the community what they would like to see

I run pi-hole on https://mydomain.com:88766. How do I configure windows to use this as DNS server?

I was looking at Voyager on my phone and saw communities I hadn't subscribed to in my home feed, and upvotes on posts I hadn't voted on (or even seen before). When I tried to remove the upvotes, a message said "problem voting, please try again".

Tasks.org is an amazing app but it's android only. I've got the back ups showing up on my linux machine via syncthing, but is there a tasks app that can use them?

i know you've all heard it before, but i didn't catch up, i was honestly a bit surprised when i was browsing and tesseract on dubvee shut down.

The other day, it was at 96%. This morning, it was at 88%. Now, a few hours later, it's at 80%. What's going on?

So i had some connection issue with some of fediverse instances.

If you haven't tried @blorp yet, now is a good time! It just added support for @piefed_meta so now it supports both Lemmy and Piefed!

When I tried it in the past, I kinda didn't take it seriously because everything was confined to its instance, but now, there's full-featured global search and proper federation everywhere? Wow, I thought I heard there were some technical obstacles making it very unlikely, but now it's just there and works great! I asked ChatGPT and it says this feature was added 5 years ago! Really? I'm not sure how I didn't notice this sooner. Was it really there for so long? With flairs showing original instance where video comes from and everything?

anyone actually use chatterUI with a small model on their mobile to do anything useful? like latex ocr or language translation? how do you incorporate it into your workflow (that actually improves your efficiency)?

i ran into a visibility issue when replying from mastodon to a pixelfed user’s followers-only post.

Inspired by the Low Tech Magazine, I thought about adding a dithering option to Lemmy. When posting a new link or image, you could set the image to "dithered", choose one from a couple different colors and the image will be created in this style. It looks cool, saves bandwith, storage and energy. What so you think?

There have been some exciting new things but I sorta don't want to peanut gallery while things are in motion. Whats a good place to hear about changes and give feedback on the particular thing?

Is there an alternative of airdrop on android?

For example I would selfhost Mastodon with me@fedi.com but then decide to change the server software to GoToSocial but keep the same me@fedi.com. Would everyone who was following me@fedi.com keep me in their follower list or would whole fediverse crash?

Is the instance down? I haven't been able to login for days. First .ee now .wtf?

What are the best options on Linux for creating logos as vector graphics projects, which can also be edited by someone using Adobe Illustrator?

I'm looking for a federated social media platform that allows for easy topic-based following and blocking, similar to how you can follow or block hashtags on Twitter. On Lemmy, you can follow communities, but there are so many that it becomes overwhelming. I want a platform where I can see or block everything related to a specific tag, and also view only the most popular posts about that topic, similar to how Lemmy communities work. Mastodon, for example, only shows the latest posts, which isn't ideal for trending content. I don't want a chat-like experience; I want to quickly see what's trending about a topic or what's trending in general, while being able to block a few specific topics. Ideally, I wouldn't have to spend hours curating a list of communities or followed users. Does anyone know of a platform that fits these criteria?

syncthing does not support ignore file by size. Is there an alternative for syncing between windows and android that takes little memory like syncthing?

I have now found 1070 verified accounts from media organizations in the #Fediverse, but only on #Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Bluesky, #Ghost and #Peertube.

I wanted to publish constructive criticism towards Reddit on Reddit but unfortunately that's basically impossible since they'll do everything to censor/silence that for their own gains to not hurt their reputation (you might also get censored for mentioning Reddit alternatives like Lemmy).

Tô bem impressionado com o @piefed_meta, achei mais interessante que o Lemmy.

Hello!

Preferably with no required registration.

Sometimes I write a comment on a post that is relatively new. Often, in such cases, I am interested in what others comment. Having a checkbox to get notified of other comments (effectively clicking the bell button via the action of commenting) would be handy

#Endof10 - Joseph / #LinuxHelden

I've been considering making the move to Piefed for a while, but I suppose there are a few things that I haven't been able to find that I was wondering about.

Is there a good latex ocr model that I can run with Ollama?

I mean, we got Kbin, Lemmy, PieFed, NodeBB, stuff like that. What else do they have on the fediverse that's like that?

why is unzipping on android so slow compared to Windows? I've tried ZipXtract, MaterialFile... All took 10+minutes to unizip a zip file that only took 30 seconds to unzip on Windows.

How can I Exclude domain and 192.168.... from bitmask vpn? Thanks a lot!

I'm trying to connect to smb on synology nas using material files - add storage > SMB server > add manually > - Hostname: wwddiyt.synology.me - Port: 445 - Path: blank - Username: Username - Password: Password - Domain: blank

Inspired by this post by Ed Zitron on Bluesky, I wondered if Oracle would file for bankruptcy in the future, whether due to poor decisions, millions in losses in sectors that failed to meet their targets, the loss of lawsuits filed by users and/or customers, or other reasons.

If one day I want to work in place that share my distrust to cetralized tech monopolies, where should I be? How to build my connections?

I’m not totally sure if this is a Piefed issue or a Blahaj server issue, so sorry if it’s the wrong spot for this.

Problem

Tl;dr: I think we have too much "empty" content and noise here and it drags down the place for 2 years now. Does PieFed include an approach to change the situation?

The Problem with the FediverseI have no issues with the way it is implemented, I have no issues with it at all. For context, I left Twitter to join the Fedi, and it has been great so far! I use Misskey for microblogging, PeerTube for uploading videos, and Lemmy for Reddit-style discussions. The Fediverse is amazing!Except, idk, for the fact that it is too fragmented? I hope I am using the right words. Like, the current instance I am on does not have support for communities, so i have to do it the hard way and mention @fediverse@lemmy.world so that I can post here. It's a good workaround, considering it doesn't have built-in support for communities. But my point still stands. It's not a Lemmy/PieFed problem. It's mostly a fediverse problem. Implementing communities for every platform would help the Fediverse. Not only does it solve discoverability/algorithm issues of the Fediverse (since now when you follow a community, you get all posts from that community), but also it would interconnect every platform (Misskey, PeerTube, Mastodon, etc.) Imagine you don't have to use your Lemmy account to check everything on Lemmy. Instead of creating channels in PeerTube, just post to an existing channel/community, and people subscribed to that channel/community can find you easily. I see this as an absolute win for everyone.I understand this would require collaboration between all developers of all software. But hopefully, this is possible?Or am I asking for too much?If I am wrong, then is there any way in which we can solve this issue?#fediverse #problems #fediverseproblems

Since https://piefed.social/f/rpggames seems to be mostly about computer games, I created a bunch of feeds for TTRPG

Greetings to you all!

I'm having trouble understanding the options under settings > DATA should I change reddit source to Teddit? Or should I configure redirect manually in Privacy enhancer?

I thought Activity Pub enables you to connect to all Federated servers. Why am I having difficulty subscribing to Mastodon feeds?

Hi all.

Let's say: - I am on instance A. - I browse on a community that is on instance B - a user from instance C post something on that community B.

I'm genuinely interested in people thoughts about the Fediverse because here in the UK it has massively stalled in 2025, like a lot of things. I am seeing way less posts from UK people and way less interaction and general use in fact. Most seem to have stopped social media use to be fair, and I know a lot of that is to do with my age (old fart here, 56 laps round sun and counting) but the numbers game look poor from my point of view. Do we think the Fediverse has a future now after useage appears to be going downwards? Is it a UK thing? (well I know the UK is weird but hey)
