The default post type is now 'Link' instead of Discussion, with community override

submitted by PieFed dev

Some meme or image-based communities will prefer to set this to ‘Image’. Mods can edit the community settings to change it.

I’m looking to seeing this will bugger up Piefed <> NodeBB interop :laughing:

Keep it up!

No, this is purely a UI change and makes no difference to federation :)

@rimu cool to see all the progress you’ve been making! Been planning to set up an NZ-hosted instance sometime soon to let folks in Aotearoa get their feet wet with a locally managed one - would it cramp your style if I did so? Is there an existing NZ-based one you’d prefer to have as the focus?

As another admin who just set up piefed only 2 months ago, please feel free to ping me if you have sysadmin questions while working to set up! I’m more than happy to spend some time answering questions or helping troubleshoot.

And welcome!

Go for it!

There are two Australian-based instances that already offer a snappy experience for people in NZ but more is always welcome. The docker installation process has become much much better documented since the early days.

When I set the default to ‘poll’ for !polls@piefed.social, I get a white page with the text ’not found’ when I try to create a post.
