Anyone on here know how to make one of those link preview cards? I've seen posts on here that have them, but my own testing has proven unsuccessful.

@bhaugen yeah I guess it's just more quiet lately, as @ivan and I are focused on preparing the 1.0 release (mostly testing and improving federation functionality) so there's less new features or iterations to experiment with...

seeing federated spam on the fediverse, it's time to implement some countermeasures... any feedback or suggestions welcome: github.com/bonfire-networks/...

Hi @mayel how are things?

FIGHT THE DEFAULTS! ✊️

🔥 Did you know you can fully customize your Bonfire sidebar?

Pick the feeds you want, reorder everything, move sections around. Don't let the power of the default dictate your experience, make the interface adapt to your needs!

And see you at #Fediforum later today!

To clarify, private circles (which all circles are by default) do not federate, and shared circles currently don't either (though the circle feed and member list can be viewed by people who aren't a user of your instance if shared publically). We're looking at Mastodon's draft proposal (starter packs FEP) as a way to potentially federated shared circles in the future though: https://github.com/mastodon/featured_collections

@ivan @johannab @LiquidParasyte ​

Is Bonfire still in beta testing? #askfedi

Hi @johannab sorry I saw a few of your posts and just wanted to say hello because I'm new here on #bonfire.

@johannab filling issues on github would help us a lot in the coming weeks! (but if you feel more confortable writing down here we appreciate it as well ❤️ )

@mayel ​oh, thank you - should I just pester you guys right on github?

I have an account though haven't had much cause to use it other than just reading along. BUT ... my last IT role was "global support" which was a lot of bug hunting and filing issues and service and feature requests. If I can be useful I can figure github out a bit better, I'm sure.

I signed up to try out #Bonfire social platform

Here's another UI oddity I just tripped over: While exploring settings, I was in Advanced and found Federation Status. Is this intended for a normal "User" to see?

I'm attaching two screenshots. One shows presumably the results of my activity federating (3 issues Need Attention). When I clicked on "Refresh" though, i got the second screenshot, with THOUSANDS of issues that need attention. Possibly a very confusing thing for a normal user to see?
