@muntedcrocodile @Blaze There will be no culture clash: Lemmy communities are already compatible with Pixelfed accounts

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

@meldrik If Pixelfed groups are compatible with Lemmy and Mbin, then they will also be compatible with Friendica. And Friendica groups are already compatible with Lemmy and they are already compatible with Pixelfed accounts

 

Important notice to libranet.de and venera.social users: in the next few days there will be optimizations on dB with temporary suspensions of the service

@fediverse

In the next days I need to optimize the large database tables of libranet.de and venera.social. The database has grown to an extent where the server would run out of disk space in the next weeks.

This is a time-consuming and resource-intensive process that can block other database queries. That's why I will switch on maintenance mode beforehand.

I'll start with the large database tables of venera.social. When this is done I'll continue with libranet.de.

Pixelfed: "groups" are coming and they will be compatible with Lemmy (who knows if they will also be compatible with Friendica)

@fediverse

Groups are not new to Pixelfed, we have webUI support but the feature wasn't polished enough for use, until now ✨

:pixelfed: Groups will be compatible with #Lemmy, #Mbin, #Smithereen and other projects, and will resemble Facebook Groups in our official app!

Stay tuned, we'll be shipping the updated Groups support in the app and webUI this weekend 🚀

The first social app that lets you scroll through messages with sideways scrolling! Raccon for Friendica (and Mastodon) does this too

This is a feature already implemented by apps for Lemmy (and for Reddit) or email clients, but for Social apps it represents a unique and innovative feature.

If you want to try the new feature, you can download the apk file directly from github

Medical Device Company Tells Hospitals They're No Longer Allowed to Fix Machine That Costs Six Figures

Hospitals are increasingly being forced into maintenance contracts with device manufacturers, driving up costs.

The manufacturer of a machine that costs six figures used during heart surgery has told hospitals that it will no longer allow hospitals’ repair technicians to maintain or fix the devices and that all repairs must now be done by the manufacturer itself, according to a letter obtained by 404 Media. The change will require hospitals to enter into repair contracts with the manufacturer, which will ultimately drive up medical costs, a person familiar with the devices said.
