#FeatureRequest

Something I miss in the #Pixelfed & #Mastodon sofyware: the possibility to have lists (like the circles in Google+) and show some content really only for some close friends.
I don't wanna show everything to all and have more privacy. So I still need to send everything via Signal and co.
i have no idea if #misskey写真部 , #lemmy or any other #fediverse software has that feature.

@openvibe why do posts in the notification view look totally different then on the timelines?

I would like the notification view to look just like the other timelines.

2025-07-02

I want open file formats with alt-text metadata that are compatible with most Fediverse software:
Upload an image or video to Mastodon, Pixelfed or whatever, that has alt-text metadata and it will automatically display the alt-text in the Fediverse.
Download the file and it will keep the alt-text.

Bonus: A metadata field for Fediverse creator. So people can download and repost media files and they will display the original creator just like Mastodon can do with link previews.

EDIT: In the replies we've gathered so far:
* There is an existing issue for Mastodon: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i (I don't open Microsoft GitHub™, so I didn't read it)
* PNG and probably many other file formats already have appropriate metadata tags that could be used.
* Fedi devs have to agree on one way to implement this -> #FEP
* While uploading a file you should be able to edit or replace the metadata alt text with your own alt text and then be able to choose whether you want to replace the file's metadata or not (So your post can display the alt text that is specifically relevant to your post, while the file can be downloaded with a more general alt text).

One thing I recall when I spoke to the Police about my problem on Diaspora in 2018 : they could not understand why some posts were answering other posts before those had been posted.
The NTP/time servers were out of sync.
I think on a distributed network which values the safety of users, instances should not be allowed to talk to each other unless they are in time sync.

@Gargron Is there any way to keep Lemmy posts like this out of our timelines other than blocking individual users and domains after the fact?

If there isn't, I wonder if you've contemplated service level filters. I'd definitely use it.

While I'm sure some users love getting posts like this, I bet there is a sizeable if not larger group that doesn't.

Thanks in advance.

@stux I would love that.

@Mastodon, @Gargron, can you add the :nokings: emoji mentioned here (link below) to the mastodon.online instance?

I'd love to have #Firefox tab names in the #KDE / #KDEneon #Plasma per-app #audio volume control - i need to be able to identify them, by more than just the moving peak indicator bar.

edit: that's possible on #Ubuntu / #Gnome, already - it doesn't seem to be a Firefox kinda issue.

Please keep the other current behaviour; when i mute one, all subsequent streams of the same app will be auto-muted as well.

Dear Mastodon makers, could we add some more options to the "Automatic Deletion" section of settings?

Currently it's only for our own posts but allowing for bookmark, favorite, and boost deletion with similar options would be pretty handy.

We need to keep this complex machine in top condition!

Hi @tagesschau, #FeatureRequest: Datumsangaben vor den Artikeln auf Themenseiten wie tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/digit wären super! 🙏

It would be really cool if you could post a second poll following a first, that was restricted to ONLY the people that voted in the first. Maybe a special "Post Privacy" button that says, "Only to voters in the previous poll" or something that's not quite so long and cumbersome.

I have a #FeatureRequest for @instapaper. Would it be possible to integrate with? @joplinapp, as a way of saving notes from articles?

@signalapp
Signal App
I have a feature request: (also sent in the app, but in case this is of interest to others in the fediverse.)
So often I get a call meant only for one person, in a group chat, and so does everyone in the chat. Or I accidentally call when I'm in a group chat, meaning to call just one member of the group. (Anyone else?)
In that situation, could we have a warning pop up saying something like: "You are calling all members of this group. Do you intend to call everyone in this chat?"

Dear @signalapp and @Mer__edith ,

please allow me to ask for a Signal feature: can we please get the possibility to add a custom text to each photo we (bulk) share in chats and stories?

Actually you can only have one text for the whole story and bulk shared photos, but I am sure many of us like to share stories and stuff with text for each photo.

Thanks for thinking about it!

It would be really cool if #NeoDB supported imports from #Discogs and/or similar music collecting sites in the future, since I don't really care to add each album I own manually, one by one.

There should be a mode on mobile phone camera apps where you can disable touch inputs from all but one small part of the screen (the deactivate button or action) so that you can prop up your phone on the screen side without changing focus or entering a different mode.

I have a question for everyone: Does it matter if I use #underscore_tags versus if I use #CamelCaseTags?

Personally, I find underscore-based tags to be vastly easier to read honestly, and more flexible too.

If I had my say then the two tag formats would be treated as semantically equivalent, such that the posts tagged with either are pooled together! 💡

Thus, for example, if one post was tagged "c_programming" and another was tagged "CProgramming" then they'd both show up in each other's results.

Does this already happen? If not, then consider it to be a good #feature_request (or #FeatureRequest) for the #Matodon platform.

PS: I also am asking this question on Bluesky tonight to see if I can get an answer there too perhaps.

What are your thoughts?

#featureRequest #Boost vorbehaltlich #Bildbeschreibung.

Oft seh ich gute Posts, die ich gern boosten würde, die aber keinen #alttext haben. Oft wird das später per Edit nachgereicht, was ich nicht mitbekomme.
Ich stelle mir das so vor:
- Ich drücke auf Boost und weil kein Alttext, Option vorbehaltlicher Boost
- Autor*innen sehen dass sie x vorb. Boosts haben und sind ggf. motiviert, Alttext zu ergänzen
- Bei Ergänzung werde ich notifiziert und kann nach Prüfung des Alttext den Boost committen

Mastodon Feature Request.

More in attached image...(including ALT text)

This is a Mastodon Feature Request I noted down on Etherpad.

This is the permalink for the screenshot showing an etherpad:

The image/screenshot is a Mastodon Feature Request I wrote.

Image contains this text:

Make sure that you can report multiple users when using the report button.
 
Sometimes people use multi-account techniques to spam.
 
So the report will turn up nothing for 1 user who posted 1 post.
 
But would turn up more if 100 account under 1 person's control posted 100 messages on the fediverse!

Wish @Sony had a built-in flash/ambient subtraction feature. Take two quick shots (flash on/off), get a clean image of only the flash's light. Would be super useful!
