#Friendica needs new contributors!
I'm not used to do this, but with the large influx of new users and node admins recently coming from #Twitter, our small team is now behind the curve for handling support requests, bug reports and bring about much-needed features.
The project is built on a #PHP / #MySQL platform, but we also need people to be able to assist others just using the software to give developers some space.
If you're willing and able to help, please follow @Friendica Support and the project on Github: https://github.com/friendica/friendica

@Danie For me the majorities of these AI generated pictures looks weird, them looks artificial, there is something wrong.
I would say from a human point of view are wrong. But at this point, what is the different between a well crafted 3D landscape generator and such algorithms AI?
Also software like Mandelbulber can create beautiful (abstract) landscape, I am really missing the point of all these AI related projects.
Some years ago there was another AI like this one able to create faces, all these faces looked like cousins of Brad Pitt and George Clooney eventually. 😂

Also, can't wait for sodium sulfur batteries to really take off!
Sodium Ion Batteries are, apparently, now in production. As in, this isn't theoretical. Customers are purchasing and using them now.
How Na-Ion batteries differ from Li-Ion batteries:
First, Na is very similar to Li but heavier so in general they operate the same way. But, obviously, there's no Li in a Na-Ion battery. But apparently neither is there any cobalt or copper or graphite.
No Li, Co, and no Cu means Na-Ion batteries are much less costly in terms of materials but also in terms of labor and environmental hazards.
But Na is heavier than Li so what about energy density? Well, there's a claim here that these Na-Ion batteries have comparable energy density to Li-Ion batteries. Which would mean there must be a mass-savings in some of the other constituents of the battery, right?
Well, whatever. It's something I'll be keeping an eye on. If it all works out this could be a very good thing indeed.

Apologies for the fundamental question, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for online.
I'm trying to help test the new Fedilab app, and one error I've been having is that I'm unable to upload photos from the app. The developer said that my instance does not return supported MIME types. An update was provided that prevented it from crashing from not detecting the MIME type, but the draft window just closes, so I'd like to try to fix it on my server.
Is there a way to fix this on my server easily, and where is the MIME type file located? Which mime types should I enable?
Thanks!

•I don't want to say that again, that the code base is very complex. I rather thought that you can not only win people over for the code here, but that there are some tasks, as you have already listed.
I have to say I've looked at the code quite a few times and I haven't really gotten through what works where, how and why the way it works. Although I do daily development with my own applications based on PHP.
If I were to join at some point, I see the junior jobs as a starting point, as you have often described, and then ideally as an encapsulated development without any problems that can arise with the core.
Start slowly and feel your way and not from 0 to 100 and then cause chaos all over the core. Because it's always such a thing with self-developed applications where you can already understand the workflow in your head and in contrast to other developed software that still evokes many dark corners in your head.
That's why I understand your post and I think I'll hold back there, also to motivate people here, to screw the code base is not trivial and only people who have been doing this for a long time should do it. Because a broken Friendica is of no use to anyone.

•What can they do in the Friendica project? :thinking face:
My technical background is that I have been writing some web applications for the company since about 2000 with PHP (from version 3), mySQL/MariaDB and Postgres. I also use JavaScript and HTML, and since version 2.x Smarty as a template engine.
In addition, I used to write scripts with Perl and now 99.9% with Python. :smiling face with smiling eyes:
Version management used to be in Subversion and since GIT has been around, only in GIT, but since Github was taken over by Microsoft, I don't use the service anymore, I host it myself first with Gogs and then with Gitea. :thinking face:

Thus, it would probably also be time to set a sign here and if an own system is already available, then this is even easier.

•For the upstream branch, I don't see any impediments anymore. It's fully merged to Woodpecker as CI/CD and most of the time, it's working fine
For the Docker images, it's really hard currently. Because I use a "standard" CI/CD action script/binaries from the Docker maintainers themself and they hardly relay on Github. Currently it's not possible to automatically test the Docker images. And as "official" and "best practice" Docker image, as Friendica is part of, we need a github repository to relay on (but we could make a "mirror" repo, so that's not a real issue :) )

•/etc/hoststo point to my local machine. Then in a/etc/apache2/sites-available/friendica.confI setup a virtual host on that host name and even setup a self-signed SSL certificate so I can run #Friendica locally. To be able to receive mails locally, as I have #Linux running here, I had to a bit patch Friendica to disable a regex check on the entered email address. Now when I want to locally federate with e.g. #GNUSocial I just have to repeat above steps and I remember I was able to setup "remote" follow between these two local instances.

This allows us to move them from release to release and prioritize or categorize them accordingly.
But also if it takes longer or certain dependencies still needs us to write under tasks.

•Well, it's a pity that there aren't more people here who can or want to contribute more time to the project.
Basically, it's a really great idea that you can host Friendica like, for example, a Wordpress. So the number of servers should actually be higher than they are currently due to this possibility.
But of course the code part is very complex and probably needs to be cleaned up and improved at one point or another.
So it is clear to me that this cannot be achieved due to the small number of heads, that one makes a big cut as I had suggested one time or another.
My goal would be to understand the code more and maybe start with a small junior point, but if something like that isn't really on the agenda and it's better not to experiment with the code, then that's the way it is.

•By the way, you do have js front-end code, so that's something I should be able to pick up. Also, I'm generally at my best dealing with complex interactions, front-backend interaction, algorithms, data structures, that sort of stuff. (And refactoring tech debt and complex code into something more readable, but maybe that's not the best place to start an unfamiliar language.) I'm terrible at infra, configurations, and fancy CSS. Just in case you have an issue that would be a good fit for that. But I don't mind picking up something else.

•how is the plan, if i want to change something in friendica - esspacially with the junior jobs.
Git Checkout - make own branch and then i think a merge to the develop branche can not be done by the non core team developer

•You clone the repository, make your changes in your project branch. Test the changes till you are satisfied and push them to github. There do a pull request and some core developers will review your code. At the end of the review the code will be merged (or not) and along the way, some changes to the work might be asked for.

•I have been considering it already, but I'd have to relearn (modern) PHP, since I haven't used it since around 2004 (PHPv4, I think).

•If a VS Code devcontainer setup that launches a LAMP environment with Friendica preconfigured would be useful, I'm happy to contribute that for starters.
That, and I'm curious how to populate a node with test data. Can I just dump and import my main account, or is there a better way?

•As for populating a node with test data, creating a few users and following remote accounts are enough for most purposes. Although dumping your main account and importing it would be a great way to test this seldom-used feature!
