      The screencap in the article looks pretty dark to me? Is there something that needs to be dark that the example pic doesn’t show? Asking as someone that turns everything to dark mode.

        As of now, the iOS app does not have a dark mode. Though, I believe the Android version does.

            Weird. I feel like at some point I remember it having a dark mode on one or the other. Wonder when and why it was removed.

            Keep your reels off Pixelfed please. Use loops.video instead.

            Pixelfed is a photo sharing platform

              You don’t think Pixelfed should have reels?

                Yes, Pixelfed should 100% definitely not have reels. Reels and videos belong on something like loops.video or Peertube and not on Pixelfed.

                  Then allow users from one platform to use their ID on the other.

                  In fact, using fediverse social networks made me realize how much I could use a single point of identification for all the services. Like a fediverse passport or SSO.

            did you know the singer for the offspring came up with that line when he was working in lab- he was making petri dishes and you make them hot and then cool them to a certain temperature… so he was trying to wrap up and the petri dishes weren’t cooling down quickly enough, so he moved them all apart to allow air to flow between them and kept saying “you gotta keep em seperated” in his head, and then used this one riff they had while they were working on the album with that line. come out and play was the last song they made for that album

      It has a dark mode now (on iOS, at least. Maybe they’ve got a different codebase for Android)

      Edit: Scratch that. Only the login flow has dark mode.
