Hello !Friendica Support
When did #Friendica stop to complete threads I interact with? How can I activate it again?


@Mohamed Al-Hajamy💾 @Jamie Teh There are even some clients that don't allow changing visibility for individual posts e.g. #Friendica and the messages sent from there are either public or direct.


@ondrosik I'm testing it right now and I seem to be unable to locate the text entry field after hitting the reply button, so I need to investigate. #Pinafore is even listed as a supported client app in the #Friendica FAQ


@ondrosik Thanks for the confirmation, I haven't yet tested it with #Friendica my-self. Thank you


That's fantastic news! Welcome to the Fediverse!

And thank you for making the conscious decision to use the word #Fediverse, instead of the brand of just one particular type of Fediverse server among myriad others.

I've assembled a short list of platforms available to choose from here:

write.as/tallship/making-bette…

Particular favorites for many are those of #Friendica, #Akkoma, #Soapbox, #Hometown and #Calkey.

Don't forget to checkout other Mastodon forks like Glitch-Soc too 🙂

@Mikołaj Hołysz This is perhaps not the reply you would expect but #Friendica, another activity pub based server side app can do that i.e. Follow RSS feeds similar as if these were activity pub contacts.


"What does Friendica wants to be"?


@Friendica Support @Friendica Developers

Let me start with a concrete, question: Are there any efforts / plans to support the upload of videos?

And now, since I might have your attention, allow me to broaden the question to:

What is your opinion regarding "what #Friendica is / should be"?

My view / vision is heading slightly in the direction that nowadays image and video content is quite central in social networks and thus a #Fediverse application like friendica should support the multimedia aspect a bit more, if it wants to be attractive for the broad public in terms of being an alternative to commercial social networks.

Most of you might tell: "Yeah, if one prefers media centric Fediverse, then check out #pixelfed ". But I think, pixelfed is yet too much of an Instagram clone, only providing the image / video focus (which bothered me at Instagram from the very beginning not being able to have good commenting / discussion options there).

In my view, Friendica has great potential becoming a great "one fits all" application for the majority of people who like social media and the concept of the Fediverse. It has way more cool functions than #mastodon / pixelfed (which are in my opinion too close copies of Instagram and Twitter, respectively) but much simpler and convenient than Hubzilla (which I think is really great, for a computer science person, but not for the broad non-technical focussed public)

Wrapping it up: I would love to see a Friendica development towards an easier multimedia support. What are your thoughts?

Cheers

Marek


@legeneralmidi En théorie, tous les services fédiversaux sont interopérables, mais mes partages de Mastodon à #Friendica viennent sans texte.

github.com/friendica/friendica…


This sounds like an issue with a #waf (web application firewall), not directly #friendica . You should check the logs which rule is triggered and check if it can be disabled.


@Hypolite Petovan
Oui, j'y suis toujours, pour les posts un peu plus long et les copaines que je m'y suis fait.
Et c'est justement bien qu'iels puissent lire mes posts #friendica et que je puisse y partager les leurs.
Je ne sais pas si c'est faisable avec #mastodon ?


Yuup ich hab ja auch ein #friendica laufen mit Frio - aber ich meinte eine komplett andere Anordnung der Menus und Auswahlpunkte gibt es wohl noch nicht oder?


@Hypolite Petovan I have setup a local #Apache and added an entry to /etc/hosts to point to my local machine. Then in a /etc/apache2/sites-available/friendica.conf I setup a virtual host on that host name and even setup a self-signed SSL certificate so I can run #Friendica locally. To be able to receive mails locally, as I have #Linux running here, I had to a bit patch Friendica to disable a regex check on the entered email address. Now when I want to locally federate with e.g. #GNUSocial I just have to repeat above steps and I remember I was able to setup "remote" follow between these two local instances. For Windows users, there is #WinAMP around for a very long time, including #Mercury mail server so you could be able to repeat it even on Windows.


Participating on polls from Friendica


@Friendica Support : Just a curious question:
I follow quite a lot of mastodon account, and in the last days, mastodon users seem to develop a passion for polls.


I noticed that I am on my friendica instance are not able to participate in these polls since the content is only included in plain text.

Does #Friendica just do not support polls, or is it only my instance / a missing add-on that prevents me to participate in polls?


Still learning a lot about #Friendica and the #fedivers myself. But I'll be always happy to help others, and maybe I'll be able to also contribute some day. The vision of an open, noncommercial decentralized social network is worth the effort.
@Hypolite Petovan what will be best practice to get started to support developers? Unfortunately, I not that much experience in open source community social culture. I guess participating the discussion on the git site?


#Friendica needs new contributors!

I'm not used to do this, but with the large influx of new users and node admins recently coming from #Twitter, our small team is now behind the curve for handling support requests, bug reports and bring about much-needed features.

The project is built on a #PHP/#MySQL platform, but we also need people to be able to assist others just using the software to give developers some space.

If you're willing and able to help, please follow @Friendica Support and the project on Github: github.com/friendica/friendica

Thank you!


Hello !Friendica Support

The menu that pops up when you click on the avatar only appears for contacts that are not on Friendica. This menu does not appear for my Friendica contacts.


Here at this Hubzilla contact appears the menu


The menu does not appear for this Friendica contact.

@Marek Bachmann @Friendica Support To me it appears you have created a friendica system account to run either the cron task or daemon.
Either make those running by the user www-data or reconfigure php-fpm to run the friendica specific pool under friendica user and chown everything friendica related to the friendica user.


Hello !Friendica Support

seems the account deletion does not go through. What can I check to find the reason?

(current stable #Friendica version)

List with deleted accounts looks like this, some there for more than 2 weeks already.


Když už mi to tady vyskočilo, svýho času jsem používal #Hubzilla (ale byla celkem pomalá), teď běžim na #Friendica. Facebooku je to podobný, při troše fantazie to jde používat jako FB, Twitter i normální blog.


Hello !Friendica Support
apparently I got 258 notifications, notifications only shown in /delegation. What is the URL to mark all of these read? I am tired of clicking on each notification in /notifications/system one by one.

!Friendica Support Although many people here are already aware, I figured I'd post about the existence of a Friendica specific chat room on the Matrix network. Conversations have ranged from qusetions about installations, troubleshooting, and development. #friendica #matrix matrix.to/#/#friendi.ca:matrix…


Hello !Friendica Support why is this post "unlisted" on #Friendica, but "visible to everyone" on #Pixelfed, where I composed it from?

Link on Pixelfed:

Etwas Hoffnung gibt mir die Beobachtung, dass das Verhalten bei einem anderen RSS-Bot auf einer anderen Instanz von #Friendica so scheinbar nicht auftritt: taz@squeet.me

Dort konnte ich soeben problemlos einen Beitrag teilen.


!Friendica Support
Es gibt den Bot media_ccc_rss@libranet.de. Ich wundere mich, dass dieser fast 50 Kontaktanfragen hat, obwohl 'automatische Kontaktannahme' eingestellt ist.
Das soll so nicht sein, oder?

Hello !Friendica Support, @Steffen K9 🐰

When I select the "Forums" account type in the Network Stream, the forums from forum.friendi.ca are not displayed to me.

I have also created a user group "Forums" with all the forums I have subscribed to, but the forums from forum.friendi.ca are not displayed here either.

!Friendica Support Wikipflege

How is documentation maintained? There is github.com/friendica/friendica… and then there is wiki.friendi.ca

The information interlaps. E.g. github.com/friendica/friendica… has a great client list while cvlient list on wiki.friendi.ca/faq/friendica#… (ideally the anchor links would be more descriptive) is completely outdate.

How can this be improved so there are not two locations that have to be maintained, while #friendica community is already struggling to keep up with documentation in one place.


@Tusky Closer look: It's apparently a #Friendica problem, same happens when posting such a response through the web ui. Hashtags in CWs are a problem?

@Friendica Support


!Friendica Support Tried to respond to a CWed post in recent #tusky and got an ... interesting outcome. Is this an issue in #friendica or rather a @Tusky display problem...?


Hello !Friendica Support
for posts that came to me because I follow a hash tag, why is it not shown that this is the reason I see them?
#Friendica


There are a bunch of other social apps, but to be honest #Mastodon for me seems to be the most polished & has the most users (so it's the most social).

If you can think of a good reason to check out the others please let me know why 🙂

Some aren't just microblogging, but do other things too.

These are the other apps available:
#Diaspora #Pleroma #Friendica #GnuSocial #HubZilla #Misskey
