It's great that Mastodon is already supported, but it'd be even better is more apps from the fediverse were supported too.

That would be really awesome to be able to post on PixelFed and more federated networks

@Sascha-Foerster yes that’s my post trying to get support for more fediverse support. This would be great for both platforms. Is there a problem with my post? Wondering why there’sa link with no comments.

@Ric-Harvey I thought of sharing it to different places so it can be reposted and get larger impact, so more people vote for it. :)

@Sascha-Foerster cool thank you. I thought I’d done something wrong for a moment hehe. After this it’s got to be peertube

@Ric-Harvey I was also searching for a documentation of the Pixelfed API. Do you know something?

@Sascha-Foerster i understand from the creator it’s going to be republished very soon, I’ll post here once it is

It might be possible to use the Mastodon integration with Pixelfed for basic posting, I believe Pixelfed actually supports the basic Mastodon APIs. Worth experimenting with.

What I would really love to see, in terms of a dedicated integration, is support for Pixelfed Stories and Groups. Stories are already an established thing on the platform, but Groups are projected to land in an upcoming release, and could be a really big deal.

I have fully tested this and it works. The only issue is it displays as a mastodon account (expected) and it would be nice to see the pixelfed logo there instead.

What works:

  • Logging in
  • Posting
  • Scheduling
  • Attaching multiple photos
  • Analytics (follower count, reposts etc etc)
