Big deals, omg
- Mods can move a post, with replies and votes, to another community. The change federates to other instances (except Lemmy, for now. I’ve been in discussion with devs from NodeBB and Lemmy about how this will work, they are on board).
- Upload video files while creating a video post - no external host needed. Admin setting to limit who can do this (to save space).
- Realtime chat - conversation immediately updates on screen when a new PM arrives.
More good stuff
- Author-deleted posts are still visible to them and anyone with the url. No more loss of high-value comments with the OP deletes.
- Search filters - nsfw and minimum post score
- Improve speed of cross-posting form on mobile
- Emoji tokens like
:blush:can be used in post or comment body. No GUI support yet. - Admin setting to disable local copies of remote images - good for single-user instances
- Replying to a comment marks associated inbox item as read
- Updated HPT-Fruits theme
- 196 no longer excluded from default community import
- Remove unused community rating feature
- Remove unused instance vote weight feature
- Remove ineffective þ to ‘th’ replacement
- Improved accessibility - better contrast, fixed many incorrectly-used
aria-labels - Updated translations - Basque, Chinese, Japanese
API:
- Admins can ban/unban users through the API. piefed.world was maintaining custom code for this, hopefully it’ll make their version upgrades faster.
Bugs fixed
- PMs
- Markdown parsing
- Speed up loading of profile pages for admin users
- Friendica post parsing
- Passkeys login UX tweak
To upgrade
To upgrade from 1.4.x:
git pull
git checkout v1.5.x
./deploy.sh or ./deploy-docker.sh
Awesome!
Fantastic - you are so incredibly dedicated!!
One suggestion: for posterity add to “No more loss of high-value comments with the OP deletes.” the constraint that the post must remain bookmarked by someone or else it will get deleted (it is not automatic otherwise).
Is the feature to move posts from MBin instances supported?
My understanding is that the mbin move feature doesn’t federate out at the moment, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it happens soon as there are more platforms that support it.
@[email protected] is there any documentation about the move post feature? It has existed in the mod panel on mbin for as long as it exists, but it does not federate and it would be great if we could implement it in a way that is working piefed, lemmy and nodebb
I just did a quick test-move and here is the json that was federated out:
{ "actor": "https://crust.piefed.social/u/wjs018", "cc": [ "https://piefed.wjs018.xyz/c/testing" ], "id": "https://crust.piefed.social/activities/move/l7NaOQha12PQyYv", "object": "https://crust.piefed.social/c/testing/p/108274/this-post-will-be-moved", "origin": "https://piefed.wjs018.xyz/c/testing", "target": "https://crust.piefed.social/c/test", "to": [ "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public" ], "type": "Move" }For context, this was moved from [email protected] to [email protected]. The author, @[email protected], is a moderator of the community that the post was initially posted to. I did find a bug in this process, the post flair, which should be community-specific, was moved as well when it should have been stripped. So, I created an issue for tracking that fix.
thanks for the quick response. I added it to our issue tracking the federation of mod actions (mbinOrg/mbin/#248)
This release is a bit smaller than usual but also only 2 weeks since 1.4. I’m planning on doing smaller, more frequent and more focussed releases in future.
Seems like a pretty big update to me as a video creator 🫡
being able to move posts is huge!
It’s one of those missing pieces that we’ve missed for so long that no one ever bought it up - that was just how it was. Then in Nov of last year Julian from NodeBB initiated a conversation between NodeBB, Lemmy and PieFed and here we are. I got there first but hopefully the others are not far behind.
We were just talking about how to consolidate communities and it’s really annoying not being able to move posts lol
A merge community function… ooo
Oooh
PieFed is moving fast, I like it. Thanks for all your work!
Well done!
Amazing work thanks.
Is the ability to crosspost text posts on the priority list for coming releases? https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/issues/996
Yes, although it’s a long list…
As a new lemmy user whats the killer features I’m missing out on by not being on Piefed? curious
There is something about this link structure that is not getting translated to allow me to see the referenced post on PieFed.social.

Scroll down to the Differences between Lemmy and PieFed section.
Congrats on the new release!

Sounds awesome! One question, until Lemmy properly supports this, how will it look on the Lemmy side when a post is moved? Will it still be visible in the original community, in both the old and new communities, or will the post just disappear?
It’ll disappear from the old community and appear in the new one, with all the same comments and votes as before. On all instances.
Oh wow, this is great for future programmatic migration!
Ah, okay. That’s great. Might be a dumb question, but what did you mean by “change federates to other instances (except Lemmy[…]” then?
Sorry I misread your earlier question, missing out the “until Lemmy supports…”.
From Lemmy’s side it’ll look like the post is still in the old community.
Thanks for clarification, makes more sense now. Will everyone still see each other’s comments when a post is moved but for Lemmy users it’s still in the old community?
