Which platform(s) should we use for discussing PieFed development? Question poll (piefed.social)

Please only vote if you have contributed to PieFed in some capacity (e.g. coding, translation, reporting bugs, discussing bugs) or might in the near future!

Currently, we have two different developer chats on Zulip and Matrix. This means, that new devs will be confused about which channel to join and experienced devs have to actively look around in both channels for questions to answer. This seems like a really inefficient system, so we should at least decide on one official communication channel.

Personally I find Matrix to be a pain in the ass and prefer Zulip. But it hasn't managed to attract as many users as Matrix has despite pushing it quite hard for months. Also PieFed development has started to bleed over into PieFed naturally, such as !piefed_css@piefed.social and !piefed_plugins@piefed.social. So we're in an awkward place at the moment.

31% A PieFed community, only
3% chat.piefed.social - Zulip
10% Matrix channel
18% PieFed + Zulip
21% PieFed + Matrix
13% PieFed + Zulip + Matrix
3% Zulip + Matrix (what we have now)
3% Zulip

Oh nice idea, it will fit nicely my fediverse community ! We can play a lot with flairs :3

We can use them to hide content, to categorize content, we could add a related hashtag, make a search with include, exclude...

mastodon's hashtag and piefed's flair are alike. On mastodon, you can create a timeline where you can mix username, hashtags, so maybe the next feed feature would include some hashtag ? :)

The bell notification is a very good idea, i would like to expand it to hashtag. 😋

    Maybe the list is overhelming but the bell notification for flair is already great idea.

    Since several months, I stopped suggesting new ideas on codenberg since there is already lot things to do. It will also add more API and the dev team is small. But yeah we can play with flairs. :)
