🍄🌞🦎


you wake up.

you're still a lizard sunning on a red rock. it was all a dream

the concept of selling "feet pics" to pay back "student loans" is already losing its meaning as you open and lick your own eyeballs to moisten them

time to eat a bug.

Question for friendica devs


Do you know if it is possible to implement a feature here where a user could upload their data from another platform (specifically Facebook) and get automatic "memories"-style posts (which they can choose whether or not to post) here on the anniversary dates of the old posts?

I think it would be a big selling point for people moving away from Meta to have such a feature. A lot of us spent the better part of 15 to 20 years there and don't want to lose everything.

I'm a web developer myself, and I don't think it would be too crazy of an ask, but I don't know anything about the format of a FB user data or post-history export.

This question was originally asked to me by @Julie (thanks!)

in reply to j. Gavin Moore

@j. Gavin Moore No Friendica dev myself, but damn, that would be cool. This is exactly what Pixelfed is doing with Instagram.

Memories


If you go to Settings>Additional features>Network Widgets and enable the Archive one, you get the ability to view your timeline for a specific date in the past. If your profile is older than a year, you can also click on "on this date" to see what went in your feed exactly a year (i.e. 18.01.2024) before (or whichever specific date you selected.

If you also select Personal afterward, you can see all your interactions on the desired date. It also shows your likes tbh, but hey, it works!

Here's how it looks on my end

Also, you're much more likely to have the devs see if you post on !Friendica Support. I'm no dev myself.

I'm referring to Facebook (Meta) and X as 'sociopath media companies' from now on.. for accuracy

At least in the popup post window on the web I couldn't get them to work. Trying again in replies 😁 success! Thanks @Ruud
