@Oceane @mayel @versolalto @silmathoron, great idea - @dajb did some great work on thinking how open badges could work in a federated environment docs.google.com/presentation...
def something on our (not really short) list 😊

@Oceane thanks <3
ps we've added an info label at the bottom of the right sidebar, that indicates the instance federation status - so that users are aware of that specific instance setting 😉

@Oceane We have indeed been optimising the speed of both the backend and UI, glad it is bearing fruit 😅
The other milestone we're working on is federation, for which we introduced 3 different settings: github.com/bonfire-networks/...
Currently federation is locked down on here while we optimise some more things (like limiting how many replies are automatically fetched in threads) and then we'll change it to on-demand.

@silmathoron @mayel @Oceane Yeah, it is definitely waaayyy better. Really nice job. I look forward to switching to this from mastadon once you get out of beta.

@mayel @versolalto @silmathoron I'm not trying to speak on behalf of the Mastodon developers but there seems to be less and less bugs, that's an amazing job
Also if you were to add OpenBadges compat I'd want an “early investor” badge (y'know, “early social investor”)

@ivan Hmm so now I'm just replying to you by default?
Yep, it might be the 7th time both Doug and I get mentioned in a thread about this (generally, I mention him)
On a network of 3 millions of users, with a strong “Mozilla Firefox” culture, you could generate a few millions of dollars a year of revenue with that right?
They should be paying you to develop it

BTW when the instance is set to on-demand users can still lock down federation for themselves, and when federation is enabled they can set themselves to on-demand or disabled. This is currently the only exception to all admin settings being fully overridable by users [besides the more obvious ones in "instance configuration" such as instance name and max file upload size].
This is a bonfire instance for testing purposes. Federation is disabled for this instance.
Automatic federation enabled
