Wasn't that because of age verification though?

They'll use any phrase they can except "concentration camp".

Yesterday I merged in a PR that lets the instance admin set the sizes for thumbnails.

But the real issue is that the thumbnails have a variety of uses - in the PieFed web UI thumbnails are shown quite small so 170px is fine. But some mobile apps might show the thumbnail in a manner that spans the whole screen which is going to need to be at least 350px wide.

I'll make PieFed generate a 500px version of the thumbnail and include that in the API response (as well as the smaller one).

Per IP address.

That seems low. I've increased it to 20 per hour.

Great news, congratulations!

I hope they do this, it'd make the APIopolypse look like a practice run.

lol, wow

It'll be interesting to see how many phones have the GPU necessary to push that many pixels around. I'm guessing not many.

The web app could switch to lower res images (etc) if your connection is weak. Or if your battery is low it might switch out YouTube embeds for clickable images instead.

I looked at the code recently. It's really good, way better than the UI made me expect.

Very similar. I expect app devs will have an easy time of it.

Congratulations!

There is now, see the PieFed meta community.

Sorry about that, it sounds very frustrating.

I've found that a field used to store account timezones was too short for yours. I've increased the size now so your next registration attempt will succeed.

Does it work ok in your phone web browser?

More apps will follow, I expect.

Also PieFed can import those exports that Lemmy makes.
