#JoinFediverseWiki is almost ready for it's official launch in 8 days.
Right now I'm gathering feedback from people who are not deep into the Fediverse yet.
What you can do to help:
* #boost this post.
* show the wiki to your non-fedizen friends and forward me their feedback.
* of course you can give me feedback yourself even if you're a Fediverse veteran.
* help edit the wiki. For now I wrote almost everything myself.
Happy holidays everybody. 🎉

Hi Paula, in your wiki you emphasize on the fediverse-benefit of following accounts on different platforms with one account of my own.
I'd love to have a glimpse into pixelfed without signing up for that service. Is there a good way to do so with my mastodon profile? I expected something like single sign on.
Would love to participate in an article about that 😊
@lukasweidinger With the Android app Fedilab you can follow home timelines of other instances, including Pixelfed instances.
It doesn't work for me atm, but here is how it should work:
https://fedilab.app/wiki/features/reorder-timelines/#add-instance
Other than that I don't really have an idea.
@PaulaToThePeople
Sounds great, I've installed the app but it doesn't find any public feeds at Pixelfeld.social
I'll try again tomorrow or ask the support.
Thanks a lot so far 😊
@lukasweidinger @PaulaToThePeople
Lukas, try adding /discover to the URL such as: https://pixelfed.sdf.org/discover
Thanks for the hint, SDF.ORG!
Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. I've sent @apps a PN but got no answer so far. I don't want to comment on Playstore since the app should appear positive there.
@lukasweidinger
Pixelfed allows to hide the public local timeline. So if it doesn't work, that means the admin decided to hide it (a token is required).
@dansup could you confirm? Thanks.
@lukasweidinger @dansup @SDF @PaulaToThePeople
I quickly checked. I can't access the public timeline
https://pixelfed.sdf.org/api/v1/timelines/public
@apps @lukasweidinger @dansup @PaulaToThePeople
Yes @dansup states here that the public timeline is not visible by design and that you can use discover which allows users to 'opt in' their posts:
https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/214
This works for not logged:
https://pixelfed.sdf.org/discover
click on monthly to see public posts.
@dansup
Wow. Thank you, I didn't notice that the api endpoint changed.
We will proceed to the update.

@dansup
Great! Thank you.
@SDF @lukasweidinger @PaulaToThePeople
@apps @SDF @lukasweidinger @PaulaToThePeople It never changed, but in the process of refactoring a bug was introduced to the /api/v1/timelines/public endpoint so I will fix that so you don't need to change the endpoint!
