where is the edit function 😁

Hello bonfire, i'm new here~ Chinese and English are fine.

oh my, how can i use the custome emoji i just added 😁

is this instance didn't federate ? #fediverse

Why does the "Notifications" badge tell me that there is a new notification - when the list is empty?

A couple of days ago I marked all notifications as "Read", so I am abit puzzled by this.

Hi all here. Is there anywhere where I can see who I am following?

@ivan and @mayel, if I may suggest a feature:

Maybe we could have parameters for choosing audience in a feed (e.g. Exclude/Include/Only for Followers, Following, etc). I want to make changes to the Following feed, but they don't stick if I save because it comes an unfiltered feed without any of the exclusive parameters the built-in Following feed has.

@coyote @Ianp5a @mayel @gilles @ivan I am trying really hard to understand bonfire 😊.

When you say that "Bonfire community" will have groups - does that mean that it will be a different version of Bonfire - and different from "Bonfire social"?

So, for comparisons to #bigtech:

Bonfire Social --> Twitter (micro-blogging)
Bonfire Community --> Facebook​

I am in no way saying that it is a bad thing, but just to compare, pixelfed is the brand name of the platform where users can chose where to sign up. But it's the same app. But bonfire will more likely be a "powered by bonfire" where whatever brand name will be on top and bonfire will be the underlying infrastructure/core?

A bit like PPBoard was back in the day 😊

Hi all, I'm interested in enabling Drupal websites to be able to post to bonfire social instances. I have already done this for Mastodon, and I found this issue about compatibility with the Mastodon API: github.com/bonfire-networks/...

I see that there is already a checkmark next to posts in there. I am looking to test if my mastodon Drupal module already works for posting to bonfire via the API. Mastodon provides an interface for administering api access for your applications, and generates client secrets, keys, and access tokens. I am curious about whether this is intended to be core functionality or dependent on an extension, and looking for comments about when this might be possible or how to do it if it already is. Thanks! Looking forward to playing around more with bonfire and following its growth.

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?

@johannab ​ I didn't know that circles could federate, but I guess that makes sense

@ivan @mayel by the way: is "groups" a concept in bonfire social?

@ivan @mayel I of course don't understand the exact architecture, but one thing that I can image that could be a challenge is that the "village only feed" contains posts based on a property of their boundary ("only for villagers"). If I understand correctly: as a villager who is allowed to read a post with this boundary, I only know that I am allowed to read, not that the it has boundary "only for villagers". Or do I?

@mayel @ivanI am currently trying whether I can do this with boundaries and circles. Honestly, I find the connecting concepts boundaries and circles really hard to grasp. They seem to be implemented so generically (which is GREAT) that I have difficulties navigating.

Great to see so much development @ivan !

I have a qustion for a specific use case (could also ask this somewhere else, but why not here):

Say, I set up a rather local-focused bonfire instance, for example, inviting all people from my small village to have an account. I would like to be able to:
1) Post my opinion about, say, synthesizers to be read by people from all known instances. (and of course let all villager post about whatever they find interesting)
2) Allow villagers to post stuff about our village that is only visible for people in the village. For example, I could invite people for helping organizing a cleanup day in the village hall. If I understand correctly, this would be done by setting the boundary to local on my village instance.
3) On my instance, I would like to offer all accounts a default custom feed that only shows local stuff (as posted under point 2). Most villagers don't care about my opinion about synthesizers, they just wanna see what's going on in the village. (so, that is different from the current default "local" feed)

I would really love it when this third option would be possible. The literal example given here would be a serious use case, but I can think of many more.

@piratepost@poliverso.org @ivanThe audio player does not play for me, only when I click the arrow-out-of-the-box icon.

I'm getting an AccessDenied error here…
