This afternoon, an acquaintance joined a Mastodon instance and asked me which "celebrities" are present in the Fediverse, as if it were important to determine the value of a social network based on that.
I told him that the most important user in the Fediverse is him. Just as it’s you, reading this. Someone who has decided to interact with others freely. Who has chosen to trust their administrator (or create their own instance) more than they trust those who run traditional, monolithic, centralized social networks.
So, I want to thank all the friends of BSD Cafe, whether local or not, for being here and making this place what it is. And I thank all my friends in the Fediverse, who make my timeline lively, interesting, intelligent, fun, and thought-provoking - every day, at any time.

@RaccoonForFriendica a new version 0.2.0 has been released.
Changelog:
🦝 feat: add support for MastodonRedirect;
🦝 feat: export/import app settings to/from JSON;
🦝 feat: export contact list from profile;
🦝 feat: allow changing markup mode in post creation;
🦝 fix: retain scrolling state after navigation;
🦝 fix: newlines after titles in Markdown preview;
🦝 fix: avoid self mention when replying;
🦝 fix: retrieve source to edit post;
🦝 enhancement: populate current app icon value in settings;
🦝 chore: update manual and project documentation;
🦝 chore: typo in Fastlane metadata.
For those who have lost it, there has been a 0.1.1 in the meantime, which was mainly due to a metadata issue which blocked the submission on F-Droid, but it also included:
🦝 feat: add support for alternate (classic) and monochrome app icon;
🦝 fix: rendering images of different heights in carousels;
🦝 fix: rendering GIFs (or images with unbound constraints).
After the app gets published on the stores, we're going to move towards a more predictable release cycle (e.g. monthly stable versions and weekly betas).
Hope you are having fun on Friendica (or Mastodon) and as always #livefasteattrash

@RaccoonForFriendica the first stable version 0.1.0 has finally been released! 🎉🎊🎉
Here is the changelog, compared the latest beta:
🦝 feat: make crash reports opt-in (disabled by default);
🦝 feat: add option to keep app bars fixed while scrolling;
🦝 fix: transition between images/videos in detail view;
🦝 fix: unmute videos in detail view;
🦝 enhancement: update licenses;
🦝 chore: update dependencies;
🦝 chore: update user manual.
If no blocking issues are reported, I intend to make it easier to install the app (by distributing on other alternative stores, e.g. setting up the submission procedure to F-Droid), translate the UI and/or user manual into more languages, etc.
Wish me good luck and remember to #livefasteattrash!

@RaccoonForFriendica new version 0.1.0-beta21 available for testing!
Changelog:
🦝 add option to load media only when connected over a WiFi network;
🦝 add option to open web pages in internal viewer;
🦝 default visibility for replies and warning if higher visibility than original post;
🦝 prevent changing visibility in post edits;
🦝 make plain text mode the default choice for composition;
🦝 remove "other" section in login;
🦝 improved video player;
🦝 render custom emojis inside poll options;
🦝 layout fixes: chat title, user items in inbox, loading indicators in buttons;
🦝 fix occasional crash in profile screen;
🦝 add more unit tests;
🦝 several dependency updates.
If things go well, this may be the final round of tests before the first stable release. The last bit will probably be making crash reports opt-out by default.
I'm also very pleased to inform you that the app has been accepted by IzzyOnDroid, so installing it is a lot easier if you use it or have its source added to your FDroid app.

I started regularly donating about a year ago. I am now supporting 8 different projects with 20,77€ per month, and it didn't hurt at all.
Why pay for something free? Because free software only exists because other people already paid for it. Someone has to do it. It's time to do your part!
If you can afford a subscription service, then you probably can afford a little donation, too. Start with 0.1% of your income.
