Every few months Dansup announces that Groups are imminent.
Dark mode is supposed to be released this weekend! 50 weekends ago.
I stopped keeping up with him to save my sanity and excitement for when I can actually see for myself what has changed with an update.
Wow, no dark mode on a photo app. Photos look great on a dark background…

Tbh I’ve just given up with him as an engineer. He goes and does side projects while his core base waits for updates, even while earning actual funding to improve said projects. For that much you could actually hire an engineer or two to build out Pixelfed more if you didn’t want to anymore.
“Pixelfed itself has also grown, and there are now reportedly 8 people joining the team.”
Oh well that’s good!
They will be implemented when a typescript or python clone will be created
