Friendica is better than I remembered


I'd have to say the #Friendica experience is snappier and nicer than I remember.

The ability to interact with so many different networks and protocols is unmatched, you can even follow RSS feeds.

Add to that an amazing feature set, and its thread viewing is so superior to Mastodon.

Viewing video links from #peertube works great inline as well:)

Oops, following this account from my Mastodon account, and it doesn't actually show that whole post, but instead creates a link to the OP ... that's not ideal:(
in reply to LPS

I have a feeling that if I create a post with a Title it has this odd behaviour, but if I don't include one it won't do the "below the fold"?
in reply to LPS

This is how mastodon interprets the friendica posts with a title from what I know. If you do not put a title it will show the full post. Perhaps this is a Mastodon thing.

Thanks for confirming:) Yes, I would imagine you're right.



More Friendica questions


HI #askfedi

Is there a way to add an invidious redirect to #youtube links in #friendica as you can with some #mastodon clients?

follow YT RSS from Friendica?


Hi,

Is it possible to follow YT creators and be alerted to new videos by subbing to their RSS feed in #Friendica ?

It would be amazing to be alerted right from my timeline!

in reply to LPS

sadly, this isn't even outlined in the documentation:(
in reply to LPS

It is super easy! Copy paste a Youtube channel URL into the search box and Enter. No need for the full RSS just the channel URL. Then you can see a Follow button. In the Notification area for that "contact" just select to be notified when there is a new post.

I just got back here after months trekking thru other parts of the #fediverse and currently getting tired of #mastodon and the bloat....I've always loved #friendica, but it seemed slow...maybe things have changed, thoughts?

Is development still ongoing?

Also, loving the #relatica app on android:)

@LPS

... likely to happen more as time goes on ...


Sad, but true.

... a project that fully embraces IPFS or something similar ...


I wasn't aware of IPFS; I'll have to look into it.

For having been a female MP in the pre-Taliban regime, they are now in hiding from death threats.
After months of secret work, the multipartisan Canadian rescue mission is going public, but is not complete

Are there actually places where you don't have to pretend to be a machine, though? I thought it was just hard everywhere. And getting harder.

We may have found the perfect motorhome. Plus was GoFundMe a mistake? - videos.trom.tf/w/suHmXNPUBLUUW…

We are searching for a good motorhome in Europe to buy. Second hand of course, and around 20-24 years old. It is what we can afford. Luckily we may have found one! 😃
