Nudity isn't inherently sexual, and they pointedly have not mentioned it in the quoted text. It sounds like only explicit sexual content is forbidden, not nudity.

I do think even this is an overreach for a federated network, though, assuming Pixelfed is enforcing this on all instances (is that even possible?). It should be on the instance owners to make that decision. I couldn't find where the quoted text is sourced from, however.

There's an "Adult" section in pixelfed.org's instance list

And I don't use them, either. I'm a contributor to multiple Fediverse projects, including Lemmy-based apps and full identity management with ActivityPub. We do not deserve to get held to lower standards if we want the Fediverse to grow, especially when it comes to features that are about things like eye comfort, which can be a mild accessibility issue for some.

Dark mode is a basic necessity in apps today. It's not a convenience, but a necessity for adoption. There are many people who are going to open the app, then never use it again because of something that's bog-standard in the libraries and should only take a few hours to work in, which should have been done before an announcement.

So yes, I speak up, because I want this to succeed.

Edit: And yes, I'm very excited to see the growth achieved in the other post. Fantastic news.

@corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca, @'ing you so I'm not responding in two places 😉 I appreciate the work of the team, but it doesnt change the fact that to many, this is a showstopper and I'm pretty surprised it wasn't considered as a basic UX requirement pre-launch (see other comments in response to you).

Here’s the link. Oddly, it doesn’t show up for me either when I search for it.

@surph_ninja old instagram was good as it was.

I don't agree, this actually a good opportunity for #pixelfed to support #groups so people who want their post to reach a larger audience can choose a magazine/community to post.

I wish there was an easy way to know which servers are getting hammered more than others.

I can easily make a post to my server via the website, but the app was giving me trouble, as an example. That's why I wonder where the hiccup is/was. Both the website and app are just interfaces to get data to a server, so if one doesn't work I'd assume the other doesn't too. But I dunno.

Edit: After writing this I went back and tried posting from the app again. It finally worked! I guess things have settled down.

I wonder if they were thinking like how before Reddit had image galleries, people would use imgur

I wish we could have multiple photos in posts here. Yes, we can put other photos in the description, but it would be nice to view all of them without opening the post.
