#Fediverse-Client #Pinafore
Pinafore ist ein Fediverse-Client als alternative #Weboberfläche und nutzt die #Mastodon-#Client-#API, um sich mit Konten auf kompatiblen Instanzen zu verbinden.
Der nach eigenen Angaben auf Geschwindigkeit und Einfachheit fokussierte Mastodon-#Web-Client wird von Nolan Lawson (@nolan@toot.cafe) entwickelt.

@zrzz yeah that's the thing: keyboard control should provide keyboard control 🤣 it's Ashby's law of requisite variety!
#pinafore is the same, only I can leave the cursor where the NextPage button will be and click with my thumb, unless I'd bumped it.
It's just annoying and these days A LOT of new apps do this, strand essential common function to Carpal Tunnel Land.
Why is this? Do I blame Vue or React? Is it now really so hard to do? I'm just curious because it's ubiquitous 😅
#mastodonel 2.0.0 has features you would find in any #Mastodon client and a few nifty things like Recommendeds, but I can't find the key that used to open READ MORE links to expand content (#Pinafore lacks this too, but for paging down) I thought it was 'x' but apparently not.
#Pinafore is the only webclient working on my Firefox/Ubuntu; official app loses focus and number keys won't restore it & why show Toot textarea all the time? (any keystroke not bound selects it). Sadly it doesn't Edit.
Revisiting #Pinafore for the linux desktop and so far so good, but… is there no hotkey for the 'More' button at the *bottom* of a list? '.' only goes to the top, but if I'm catching up after an absence, I would refresh with . and then scroll *down* (infinite scroll turned off) until I hit a mouse-only wall.
Just got @kitsune working on a small scale #hetzner VPS and things are running very smoothly. Posting via #pinafore works but I didn't play around with #forgejo or any other #OIDC providers yet. I got it #docker|ized and want to try to automate deployment with #terraform and #helm if I find the time next week.
Kudos to the contributors, I'm excited to see where the project heads in the near future!
It's amazing times for #SelfHosting the #Fediverse.
While I'm not necessarily a big fan of #Docker, if you're familiar with docker compose (which in itself of course raises the bar to a certain extend), you can easily spin up things in a matter of hours.
A few weeks ago I was trying out @owncast after dinner, and managed to get things running and start a stream from my webcam the same night.
Earlier this week, I set up @gotosocial along with @pinafore, @semaphore and later @phanpy as frontends for it, before I settled on @elk
I highly recommend trying this out for yourself if you have the required computer skills. Or even if you dont, but are curious -- ask your hacker friends for help. Remember, you can have this running to tinker with, while keeping your main accounts somewhere else that you consider more safe, if that's your worry.
Next up for me is to try out something that offers those sweet, sweet custom emoji reactions.

Also ich muss jetzt echt mal Werbung für #Pinafore machen.
Pinafore ist ein Web-client für Mastodon und läuft in einem Tab. Es lässt sich leicht den eigenen Bedürfnissen anpassen und hat z.B. auch Wellness settings ("These settings are partly based on guidelines from the Center for Humane Technology").
Pinafore ist schnell, lädt Bilder viel zügiger als bsplw. Mozilla selbst und wenn man antwortet, hat man über dem Antwortfeld das, worauf man antwortet, scrollbar. Ideale Lösung für Mastodon am Handy IMO.
Es ist darüber hinaus #foss und läuft sogar auf meinem uralt-smartphone.
I love it.
Pinafore.social
@rwa Yeah, I'm really just looking at one for me, so with #GoToSocial adding editing in the next version, I think this is the way I'm leaning, although I'll have to figure out a web frontend, too.
I think I may be one of the only people who doesn't love #Phanpy. To be clear, I don't hate it. It's just a bit cluttered for my tastes.
What other frontends are people using? It sounds like #Pinafore development has been discontinued? Maybe #Elk?
Does anyone know if there's an actively maintained fork of the @pinafore / @semaphore fediverse web app?
I just set layout.css.backdrop-filter.enabled to false in about:config on #Firefox and suddenly, #Pinafore / #Semaphore profiles are snappy and fast instead of highly laggy and causing the CPU to heat up quickly and the fan to spin up.
Apparently, the implementation of filter effects in Firefox is extremely bad and unperformant (and needs constant redoing on scrolling and whatever).
Have to use #pinafore in order to be able to use Mastodon at such slow WiFi of my father's...
So, after I posted yesterday, around 7:38-8:00 the whole electricity went out....we were at our friends house...
Now we're safely back at our house, our friends arleady got power back at their house, but at our house the power is still out...
So, that's how #Florida works...
Does anyone else have occasional weird glitches with Pinafore as a PWA? Sometimes when I tap it registers the tap elsewhere and I've accidentally deleted my own posts because of it lol.
Is anyone maintaining a fork of #Semaphore or #Pinafore (the fedi UI web app)? I've been using Semaphore but the upstream is archived now.
I see @prplecake is updating dependencies and has merged in some patches https://github.com/CompostInTraining/semaphore/commits/live/
Du meinst eine alternative Weboberfläche?
Da gibt es mehrere, Beispiele:
#Elk

#Phanpy

Rozumiem. Czyli nie znalazł się nikt, by ciągnąć v24 dalej, i przerzucili się na rebrandowany Fedistar.
Szkoda. Pamiętam jak #Pinafore tak "umarło", autor dobrze opisał, dlaczego nie będzie kontynuował rozwoju tej świetnej apki.
Det finns en mängd klienter för Fediversum. De flesta är gjorda för att fungera med Mastodon, men de fungerar ofta även med andra programvaror. En del klienter fungerar via webbläsaren, andra är programvaror och appar för datorer, telefoner och läsplattor. Detta är ett inlägg om mina tester av några webbläsarklienter för Fediversum.
