@deimidis Hmm not sure sorry, usually we just get join requests from people and approve those. But maybe we can add you with your username?

@ozoned@gotosocial

Oops, thanks for the heads up! Yeah we need to test interop a bit more with GtS... Let us know next time you give it a go and we'll try to be available with pointers over chat!

@stefan@gardenstate.social edited, thanks! the link is opencollective.com/bonfire-n...

@sean@deadsuperhero.com great, let's conspire together 🔥

@Bonfire The new Bonfire version update is really remarkable! Brilliant job! However, I would like to remind the development team that the translations for Traditional Chinese (Cantonese and Taiwanese) are essentially mirrored versions of the Simplified Chinese translations. As far as I can see on Transifex, there are currently no translators contributing to the Traditional Chinese version. I would like to urge Traditional Chinese translators to contribute their translations to Bonfire! Thank you!

@matlfb for sure, the easiest path to start contributing is to signup to campground.bonfire.cafe (a local only testing instance) and create threads with UI/UX suggestions or bugs (you can create discussion directly there or on GitHub as you prefer)

@box464@spark464 fyi we have a decent PWA that you can install on your smartphone and access bonfire from your home screen

@eliasp

The nix stuff in the repo was added by a couple contributors but not quite finished. Luckily some more work packaging Bonfire for nix has now started as part of a @sciety project: https://nlnet.nl/project/Sciety-ActivityPub/

@fresseng@crossref super interesting! Would play nice with our recent long form content implementation!

@ricmac we are experimenting with automatically trigger a CI pipeline to regenerate an external static sites (bonfirenetworks website is currently powered by 11ty) when an article is published (configurable in settings) as part of our work on implementing long form content

@dumpsterqueer yep that's what we were thinking as well!

@evan ❤️

@dumpsterqueer I wonder if an optional textarea to add a proper summary, or defaulting to the first n characters, would be better than repeating the title in the summary as well? wdyt?

@dumpsterqueer thanks a lot for the feedback <3 we tried to push a bit the limit with this very first prototype and see how it looks like in different platforms, we will fix the various bugs in the next release!

> "Inspired by @evan 's recent article on advancing long-form text in the social web, we've taken the leap and developed our first prototype for publishing and reading articles on Bonfire, based on the FEP-b2b8 draft specification."

Here the article on how we are implementing articles in bonfire 😅

@devSJR most likely yeah! it will depend on what participants want to do and how far they get of course...
