While React Native <Text> components do support a `selectable` prop, you can only copy the whole block of text.
BlueSky wrote an awesome library to handle proper selection as most users desire.
Now using it in the new Loops app, and soon in the Pixelfed app ✨
Hi! So I migrated from my old account @autumn_64@metapixl.com, and maybe I should do my #introduction again.
I'm a CS Engineering student from México, and I'm trans. I mostly do FOSS activism in Spanish on the Internet, but I also sometimes post stuff in Esperanto, I host a few libre services (for instance, I currently host SearXNG and Redlib) and I'm also an indie musician. Everything I do can be accessed from my website — link on my profile!
I wish to use Instagram less, so I intend to use this account to post selfies and the occasional drawings I make.
I've been using the Fediverse for 2 years though — I'm not that new lol ~

Auch wenn ich #Mastodon ueber die Jahre immer noch parallel bespielt habe... meine Guete ist das angenehm hier, wenn man das nun konsequenter durchzieht.
Und damit meine ich vor allen Dingen weitere #Fediverse Services. Allein, dass mein Blog @info nun seit August angebunden ist, #Pixelfed und #Loops ein wenig mehr Traktion bekommen...
Hat sowas von wieder verknallt sein und zwar nicht nur in eine Idee, sondern einen Wandel.
Die Zeit war noch nie so reif wie jetzt!

Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass mit hinreichender Promotion und Nachfrage eine Open Source Ersatz für Hootsuite und Co entsteht, wo die Content Creator direkt an der Entwicklung mit beteiligt sind.

Heute geht die #OpenAccessWeek zu Ende.
Die #OpenAccess Bewegung hat viel erreicht über die Jahre.
Denn es ist zum Standard geworden, dass die Ergebnisse mit öffentlichen Geldern finanzierter #Forschung natürlich kostenlos der #Gesellschaft zugänglich sein müssen:
👉 https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Access
Wir haben aber noch einen Stück des Weges 🛤️ vor uns.
Viele #Hochschulen und #Forschungsinstitute berichten (für die Öffentlichkeit!) auf Kanälen, die nur zu nutzen sind, wenn man umfangreichen #AGBs und #Nutzungsbedingungen zustimmt.
Hier auf #Mastodon, #PeerTube und #Pixelfed ist das ganz anders, vorbildlich im Sinne von OpenAccess:
denn jede Meldung hier ist über das Internet frei abrufbar – ohne langatmige AGBs, die nur kaschieren, dass die Anbieter der Dienste alle Daten vom Nutzer abgreifen, derer sie habhaft werden.
Schon deshalb gehören die #UnisInsFediverse, wie in unserem Appell formuliert
👉 https://openpetition.de/UnisInsFediverse
@daliarezk I don't use that application and don't have an account on it. I invite you to discover @pixelfed it's fediverse equivalent.
#Pixelfed is to #Instagram what #Mastodon is to #Twitter.

Ideas are cheap. Building them yourself? That's the superpower.
Self-taught high school dropout energy hits different when you're building the future of social media.
The fediverse keeps me hungry. Yeah, there's bumps — but look at what we built together this year.
We're not done yet ❤️
Ca fait un petit moment que nous n'avons pas posté sur Mastodon. Il faut y voir le "rush" des nombreuses sorties de cet automne.
Par contre, nous publions régulièrement sur notre compte #Pixelfed (suivez nous : @pvheditions@pixelfed.ch )
3 romans qui intégreront le corpus de #artlibre en novembre :
- Rush de @tcrouzet
- Trois Nuits de @s_arnier
- Le bastion des dégradés, oeuvre collective de @saraschneider , @therealjulienhirt, @Aquilegia_Nox , @StephanePaccaud et Pascal Lovis
N'hésitez pas à retooter

Building a federated For You algorithm for Loops.
It’s called @activityrank, and the MVP will be open source in the coming weeks.
Innovation doesn’t come knocking at your door — you have to build the door, open it, and invite the future in. 🚀
@dansup @activityrank are you planning on bringing this to #Pixelfed as well?
It’s ironic — Pixelfed thrives without algorithms, yet Loops users demand a great one.
That’s why Loops became its own project.
We’ll always keep Pixelfed’s reverse-chronological magic intact.
But Loops is different: we’re building an ethical algorithm that connects people to ideas, creators to communities, and sparks a movement that belongs to all of us.

Discovered a new corner of the #Fediverse that’s a lot less techy: @pixelfed.
I’ve got two accounts there: one mostly for dog pics (@everton137@pixelfed.social 🐶) and another for the #LeaveX campaign (@leavex).
I surely enjoy some tech and political discussions here, but every now and then it’s nice to take a breath of different air, so I’ll be hanging out on Pixelfed for a bit.
Got a few interactions yesterday and started exploring the vibe. And honestly, I’m loving it.

I have finally completed my migration of all of my picture posts to my GoToSocial instance. The first post goes all the way back to 2012 when I created an Instagram account which I migrated to Pixelfed years later. But frustrated with some aspects of Pixelfed at the time I bounced around servers and platforms till I finally bit the bullet and created a personal instance. Unfortunately, there were many hurdles to combining my multiple accounts into one place until I found the right combination of tools: GoToSocial, Posty, and slurp.
After multiple successful archive imports, garbage collection for the imported posts I didn’t wish to save, and a few outstanding account closures; I was down to a few hundred Pixelfed posts that wouldn’t import via that tool chain because of the existing at-mentions and slurp’s strict handling of these to prevent spam. I finally took the time to work through the pixelfed-statuses.json with a little regex to invalidate the existing at-mentions searching on (?<!\/)@ and replacing with ඞ. It looks a little awkward, but this helped maintain the context of the old Instagram mentions with @cbhaugen becoming ඞcbhaugen. I tried a number of other replacements, but found that this one worked consistently and still looked like the at-sign. Unfortunately, I didn’t discover the @ (Full-width Commercial At / U+FF20) and ﹫ (Small Commercial At / U+FE6B) til after completing the import. So if you’re in a similar predicament you may try those instead of ඞ (Sinhala Letter Kantaja Naasikyaya / U+0D9E).
