No dark mode, no use.
PixelDroid is a client that supports dark mode.
There are tons of apps which don’t have a dark mode and you are writing off fediverse app just because it doesn’t have it. Fediverse apps should be supported instead being judged harshly.
And I don’t use them, either. I’m a contributor to multiple Fediverse projects, including Lemmy-based apps and full identity management with ActivityPub. We do not deserve to get held to lower standards if we want the Fediverse to grow, especially when it comes to features that are about things like eye comfort, which can be a mild accessibility issue for some.
Dark mode is a basic necessity in apps today. It’s not a convenience, but a necessity for adoption. There are many people who are going to open the app, then never use it again because of something that’s bog-standard in the libraries and should only take a few hours to work in, which should have been done before an announcement.
So yes, I speak up, because I want this to succeed.
Edit: And yes, I’m very excited to see the growth achieved in the other post. Fantastic news.
@corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca, @'ing you so I’m not responding in two places 😉 I appreciate the work of the team, but it doesnt change the fact that to many, this is a showstopper and I’m pretty surprised it wasn’t considered as a basic UX requirement pre-launch (see other comments in response to you).
If all the things in the work queue, you’re balking on a COLOUR SCHEME?
That’s like stopping the construction crew for using the wrong colour work boots, man!
No dark mode, no use.
BTW, work boot color is absolutely regulated depending on context. For example here in Germany, if you work in sterile or food-related industries then shoes are to be issued and used with a color that cannot inherently hide stains by the material you’re working with, to prevent accidentally carrying contaminations into other clean zones.
So yes, you would stop the construction crew for using the wrong color work boots.
Absolutely NO sexuality explicit content. This includes, but not limited to, images/videos/chat around sexual acts. There are other places on the internet for this.

https://pixelfed.org/servers -> Adult 😉
Someone could just start a NSFW version, right?
There’s an “Adult” section in pixelfed.org’s instance list
Seems fair. There are many places for erotic/porn content on the web. And for a federated network it is good to not force instance owners to manage avoiding the hosting of nudity by federating it.
Nudity isn’t inherently sexual, and they pointedly have not mentioned it in the quoted text. It sounds like only explicit sexual content is forbidden, not nudity.
I do think even this is an overreach for a federated network, though, assuming Pixelfed is enforcing this on all instances (is that even possible?). It should be on the instance owners to make that decision. I couldn’t find where the quoted text is sourced from, however.
