We just released Bonfire Social 1.0.3 🔥
Blog post with all the details: bonfirenetworks.org/posts/bo...
It comes with dozens of bug fixes and UX improvements, plus:
Federated comments embeddable on any web page.
Deep Ghost integration: SSO, membership tier sync, and automatic article import.
New dashboard widgets: spotlight, polls closing soon, top discussions.
#CalmEmpowerment: a new design pattern that starts with a few sensible defaults, offers a middle layer of common adjustments, and reveals the full options only when you need them. Boundaries and post permissions got this treatment first, more to follow...
Modular community rules: a first step in bringing research and co-design with students and researchers at @hci@micro.blogs.princeton.edu into Bonfire, so governance becomes something communities can better define and share, and that others can fork and adapt.

FediMeteo updates are distributed every 6 hours. If a city appears empty on your instance, it doesn't mean the service is down - it just means no one on your instance is following it yet.
Simply start following the city, and you'll receive the weather conditions and forecasts with the next update.
Please note that since updates are sent at regular 6-hour intervals, it may take a little while for the first message to arrive.

Hollo 0.8.0 shipped less than a month ago, and 0.9.0 is already shaping up to be a bigger release than I expected. New frontend design, Passkey support, WebFinger domain separation, a media proxy, full FEP-044f (Mastodon-style quote posts) compliance, and Traditional Chinese docs. More details when it's out.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@vernissage/116572520294538786
If you haven't checked out Vernissage (a federated photo sharing platform), I highly recommend it. Beautiful photography, each instance can have a curator and the feeds are stunning.
You can (but don't have to) include photo metadata stats if you're a fancy professional, too.
The app is well designed too, some lovely design choices I've not seen elsewhere.

Today we released #Vernissage 1.37.0 🎉
You can now follow hashtags: photos marked with followed tags will appear in your private timeline. Status details also show common hashtags and clearly highlight tags you follow.
The iOS app with hashtag-following support has been submitted to Apple for review and should be available soon.
This release also includes notification improvements, minor fixes, documentation updates, and other refinements.
Thank you for your support! 😊

And if that's still too much code, here's a follow up with almost none.
Hope you'll enjoy!

A friend of mine, @siliconsjang, released SiliconBeest v1.0.0 today. It's a #fediverse server built on #Cloudflare Workers, D1, R2, and Queues, using Fedify.
I like the starting point: after watching fediverse servers go down together during Cloudflare outages, they thought, why not just run on Cloudflare directly?
They're aiming for something cheap enough that a small instance can stay on Cloudflare's free plan, and a somewhat bigger one can fit in the $5/month tier. It's still early; a lot is missing, and Mastodon/Misskey API compatibility is more of a long-term goal.
I'm glad to see Fedify put to use for something like this. Worth checking out.
The source code is on GitHub under AGPL 3.0.

Not bad, for now.
Still just a card, not full implementation yet (collections page, "remove me" buttons, edit, delete, update, etc).

Hey lazywebs, where’s a good place to learn how people who use accessibility settings and devices on phones actually use them?
I want to make sure the app I work on is as accessible as I can make it. Everything I can find says “use this and it’s accessible”, but when I try the accessibility tools the result is… well garbage.
So I want to find how who people actually use these tools expect them to behave so I can properly set up the app.

Full API support would allow pinning tailored timelines and interacting with new content. This would be particularly useful for small instances.

#Holos is a new social network working with #ActivityPub. This is not an app where you can connect your Mastodon, Pixelfed or PeerTube account.
There is no web version and no API because the ActivityPub server runs on the device itself. That's the whole challenge behind this project.
If there is more engagement, I plan to build a desktop version and even sync between different devices.
