@Raroun @Friendica Support within the past fortnight i discovered a new theme has been added, gnome, which is a much nicer alternative to the existing dark & black themes. despite me being a kde plasma fangirl, heehee. thanks for it.

one minor quibble with it is that unlike all the other themes, this one does not readily highlight the new items in the Notifications menu dropdown, instead subtly using just the theme's accent colour at the extremities. that works, but IMO it would still be desired to assign an obvious contrast background colour to the new items, like the other themes.

given clearly i am wishlist-dreaming atm, one other desirable enhancement would be to let users pick their own custom accent colour, for this & other themes.

Alright, it worked to switch the branch to stable for those two images (or whatever this is called in Docker) and there was no outstanding DB update before or after I switched the branch.

Anyone else did update the #Docker based setup of #Friendica to the 2026 version yet?

@Friendica Support @Raroun overnight [it's now my saturday 10am, midnight germany] there's been a subtle change in the timestamping of all posts in all my timelines. previously they displayed their posting time as "x hours ago", & i could only see the actual posting time by hovering on that item. now, they directly display the posting time... & i like this a lot. has there been a software update that did this, or was an administrative config change made?

this is not a complaint, not a problem -- i like this change -- it's just a surprise, so i am curious. thank you.

omg, it only took me a month and a half with 50 or so failures wipes restores wipes and finally a fresh install after losing 3 database backups and imports, lost a few days of posts over all, but I finally got my #friendica instance upgraded to Friendica 'Blutwurz' 2026.04-dev - 1589 with php 8.5.2, and so far it appears to actually be working this time, i love friendica, I just wish the @Friendica Admins @Friendica Developers @Friendica Support had made it a bit more flexible every little change breaks everything, and it becomes a nearly never ending chase to customize and keep current, anyways for now I think my quite little instance is upgraded and running;

Hello !Friendica Support
can I switch the docker branch now?

I have right now:

app:
    image: friendica:2025.07-rc-fpm

and

cron:
    image: friendica:2025.07-rc-fpm

Can I switch this to:

app:
    image: friendica:stable-fpm

and

cron:
    image: friendica:stable-fpm

And just do a docker pull?

#Friendica #Docker

Which setting of GD and ImageMagick in #Friendica is causing that big JPEG are not processed and hence uploada fail after the Upload finished?

Upload limits are all high enough, but the 40...40 MB file uploads and then nothing more happens.

I might have asked that question already some years ago.

[strong]Frage | Friendica: Verschwindende Kommentarbenachrichtigungen[/strong]

Ich hatte drei Kommentare zu einen Kommentar von mir. Da ich jedoch die letzten drei paar Tage keine Zeit hatte, wollte ich sie heute beantworten. Wollte, weil auf einmal die Kommentarbenachrichtigungen weg sind und ich die Kommentare nicht mehr finde. Wie finde ich sie wieder bzw. habe ich überhaupt eine Chance sie zu finden?

#Frage #Friendica #Benachrichtigungen # Kommentarbenachrichtigungegen !Friendica Support

Hey if anyone is interested we setup instances for Mastodon, Pixelfed, Friendica, Peertube, Nextcloud and more, See - https://webape.site/

We do so for a cost so we can afford to also make the many trade-free services and projects we have. See https://tromsite.com/

If you are interested or may want to help, you can also share this. We setup a separate VPS for each instance and provide updates, support, or custom requests as much as we can, for each instance. Plus an email server for each of them.

Wo finde ich eine Anleitung zu Friendica-Nachrichten-Relais?

Relaisserver sind großartig, um Inhalte in deinem Server zu verbreiten, besonders für kleine Server - stimmt! Entsprechend würde ich nach dem Tod von gup.pe gerne ein Nachrichten-Relais aufsetzen, welches Beiträge mit #​Brettspiele auf kleinen Instanzen sichtbar macht.
Nur: Wo finde ich eine Anleitung, was nach Festsetzung des Kontotyps zu tun ist? Und wieso kann ein Relais-Konto keinem anderen Relais-Konto folgen? Hier erscheint neuerdings die Fehlermeldung

Dies scheint ein Relais-Konto zu sein. Diese können nicht von Nutzern gefolgt werden.

Vor ein paar Versionen ging das noch.

[strong]Frage | Friendica: Wie stelle ich bei mir das 'Titelbild' ein?[/strong]

Mir ist aufgefallen das ich inzwischen bei immer mehr Kontakten ein 'Titelbild' angezeigt bekomme und zwar nicht nur bei den üblichen Verdächtigen wie z. B. Mastodon, sondern auch bei Friendica Accounts. Wie bzw. wo stelle ich das ein?

Danke für Eure Tipps und Hilfe im Voraus. 😀

Habe gestern meine #Friendica Stable auf "Blutwurz" geupdated (ich musste diesen schönen Namen jetzt einfach mal schreiben) 😉

Ich nutzte das #bookface scheme unter Frio.

Dabei ist mir aufgefallen, dass das ich in Desktopgröße einen kleinen Darstellungsschönheitsfehler habe.
Da steht oben jetzt einmal in english "compose" und daneben noch mal in Deutsch, "neuer Beitrag" (siehe Screenshot!). Wie kann ich das vielleicht fixen?

[strong]Frage | Friendica: Werden nicht alle Bilder eines Beitrags nach Lemmy federiert?[/strong]

Mir ist eben aufgefallen das in einen Beitrag der zu Feddit.org (Lemmy) federiert wurde dort ein Bild fehlt. Ich weiß dabei nicht ob es nicht vielleicht an Lemmy liegt. Hier die URLs zu den Beitrag.

Just noticed the new friendica version has been released 😀. See https://github.com/friendica/friendica/releases/tag/2026.01

For u3a.social I'll be doing an upgrade on a test instance as soon as I can and then plan for the live upgrade (I'll also want to switch to native rather than docker database).

The nice thing about test upgrades is you get to test your backups !

Hello !Friendica Support can someone share with me the activity pub troll domains, those bad actors I should put in the server block list?

would I add *.example.org oder *example.org or which is the correct way?

#Friendica

Hey all, in two week this years #FOSDEM will happen in #Brussels - there will be a Social Web Dev room on Saturday and a brief update about Friendica.

I heard whispers that @Michael 🇺🇦 and @Fabio will be there. Question who else? And would you mind to grab some fries and call it a #Friendica community meetup?

!Friendica Support

@Wilhelm thanks... somehow I kept missing things on Pleroma. The reason I switched to Pleroma originally was to play around, but then when my Friendica @utzer@social.yl.ms burned I was stuck on #Pleroma... also looked at Mastodon, but it just isn't checking all requirements I have. So I am back to Friendica and now Docker. I need to improve the setup, but I think it works quite fine like it is for now.

I love the "stay local" function, don't know why that is not a thing on Pleroma and the really reliable search for post URLs is such an underrated feature. Pleroma has this as well, but often it just doesn't work. Same is the search for users by handle, love #Friendica there too.

[strong]Frage | Wie funktioniert das mit den Content Warnings bei Friendica jetzt noch mal?[/strong]

Wie genau funktioniert das mit den Content Warnings eigentlich genau in Friendica? Ich weiß das Mastodon lange das Abstract dafür missbraucht hat, gibt es da inzwischen eine bessere Lösung? Hintergrund ist das ich zwar den NSFW Hashtag nutzen könnte, aber der eben alles verbirgt und nicht erlaubt dem User Informationen zu geben was da verborgen wird.

Bluesky Connector

Hallo !Friendica Support,

ich habe den Bluesky Connector auf meiner Instanz aktiviert. Von Zeit zu Zeit passiert es, das einer meiner Bluesky Beiträge geteilt wird. Davon bekomme ich wieder und wieder eine Benachrichtigung. Wenn ich die Benachrichtigung als "gelesen" markiere, bekomme ich kurz darauf wieder die gleiche Benachrichtigung. Die einzige Möglichkeit das zu unterbinden besteht darin, den Beitrag auf Bluesky zu löschen.

Hello @Raroun hope you're well. every now & then, when i have joined a different #Friendica instance in the past, i ask this same question of its Owners / Admins. always it's the same negative answer, but i live in hope!

on Masto & Sharkey instances, if the Admins are willing, it is technically possible to add FOSS emojis to the servers. consequently, on many of my instances i've been able to include these in various posts when applicable:

:linux: :archlinux: :kde: 😛lasma: :zenbrowser: :floorp: :firefox_nightly: :firefox: :thunderbird: :fedora: :opensuse: :debian:

so... is there yet any way that such emojis can be added to your instance, please?

Problem with second account, automatically switches to primary account

Hi !Friendica Support
I am the admin of my #friendica instance,I registered an additional account . But when I go to switch to my secondary account, it automatically switches back to the primary account .

A few months ago everything was working fine, then suddenly I had this problem, I thought it was an account issue and deleted it. But it always happens to me

What could it be?

VideoThe account is not even in the delegation

Hi guys,

I'm amazed how much work was done since last release and since there are quite lot of QoL improvements I would like to see an actual #Friendica release so we can upgrade our instances.

I don't expect any ETAs and such, but I think it's quite a while since last release and would like to point out that not everyone has enough balls to run on develop version
