#fedihood

@apps@toot.fedilab.app @pixelfed@mastodon.social oh, right, I saw #fedihood has a developer page too, that was helpful

unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a way to follow an entire region? would’ve been cool for #Fedihood

In #FediHood, there are as many American accounts as German ones. Yes, I am still amazed by how German people have adopted FediHood.

Just a small reminder, if you appreciate my work on my projects: #Fedilab #CastLab #FediHood #HolosSocial #Fedle You can support them through #Liberapay https://liberapay.com/tom79 Or #KoFi: https://ko-fi.com/tom79 Thank you for considering it, if you can. Your support helps me keep going.

I would like to share my experience of building #FediHood. While I still think that building timelines around you is an interesting enhancement for the #Fediverse, I think I was wrong about the way I did it. Many people are interested, but not enough to create another account just for that feature. They want it with their current account. I am happy to see #Pixelfed implementing it, and that is the way it should be done.

Next week will be dedicated to #Fedilab, with the release of 3.44.0. The goal is to fix the issues flagged as high priority, especially those that are also enhancements. Then I will start adding support for #FediHood.

@dansup@mastodon.social I pictured something like this, great. https://mastodon.social/@LeonardoDiOttio/116963853515800432 Does it work with other ActivityPub services that might also use location. Perhaps #Mobilizon or #FediHood? I picture things such as grouping all photos of an event together, or discussions around the location of a photo.

Concerning #FediHood, the most important part is done and it is stable enough. I am not good at promoting things, and I think I have talked about the project enough. I will let it live on its own for a few weeks now and tag the release as 1.0.0.

#FediHood now has a better composer. You can post three types: messages with topics, events and communities. There is also a bot that can put anyone from the #Fediverse on the map (a remote filter is available). More about how to appear: https://fedihood.social/locator

fixing #fedicat maps for #fedihood events

Now you can add events to your calendar in #FediHood. The map has also been redesigned to display them all, and end dates have been added. You can also subscribe to #Lemmy communities. You will get their posts in a dedicated timeline, with the ability to reply, vote and create threads. You can already submit communities that target an area, they will be available to people near them.

The top two countries in #FediHood are the US and Germany. 219 people in the US and 206 in Germany, this is amazing adoption from German people.

#FediHood now supports #Lemmy through #ActivityPub. You can subscribe/unsubscribe from groups, read threaded discussions with their upvote scores, and reply or upvote yourself (through the fav button). This is the first step: FediHood will also automatically split messages into city, region and country groups that everyone on the fediverse using groups will be able to interact with.

#FediHood now lets you sign up and log in with your #Mastodon account. It only uses the minimal API scope "read:accounts", and the token is immediately revoked. Your Mastodon identity is never shown nor federated. Without an account, the app suggests a handle and you pick a city, no email and no password to manage. With an existing account, you can link your Mastodon account to it, and each Mastodon account can only be linked once. More: https://fedihood.social/about

tapping on #fedihood maps displays either the city account listing if it’s the account map or post feed if it’s the post map

I don't know if #FediHood will be adopted by the #Fediverse community, but I am still doing my best for it. Three new features have been added:

• Emoji reactions to messages (federated)
• Theme customization (with presets available)
• An option to automatically delete your own posts

FediHood lets you build timelines based on people near you and on topics. More: https://fedihood.social/about

PS: feel free to share

There are now more than 700 users on #FediHood, and I've added new topics.

You can tailor your timeline in three ways:

• The distance from your city
• The topics you want to see
• The languages

Topics are more powerful than hashtags (in the context of the project) because:

• They avoid typos
• They work whatever the language
• One mute covers everything, unlike hashtag variants

It also fully supports the #ActivityPub Events used by #Mobilizon.

added #fedihood instance-hosted translation to #fedicat, behaves similar as #mastodon translation but with the option of selecting the source language if the post language setting is incorrect (common occurrence)

A feature I could not offer with #Fedilab: letting people upload their own custom emojis. It does not cost much and it is a real personalisation: these emojis belong to their owner only, separate from the instance emojis and not shared with other users. I am happy to offer it with #FediHood.
