You are many to join #Fedilab. We will improve the UX for adding several accounts. We have been warned about this issue.

If you have several accounts, Fedilab has an interesting feature for you.

Just long press action buttons (boost, like, bookmark, reply, follow, etc.)
That will allow you to finish the action with another account without switching.
The app will do everything in the background for you (search, federate, do the action). So you will never lose what you were doing.


The new website for #Fedilab has been published. More content will be added.

The third party Android app Fedilab (which lets you use Mastodon, PeerTube, Pixelfed, Friendica etc) is now free on Google Play, and continues to be free on F-Droid too. If you haven't tried it yet, this might be a good time:

➡️ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.fedilab.android

➡️ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/fr.gouv.etalab.mastodon

(It was previously paid on Google Play and free on F-Droid.)

There's a review of the app on the fedi.tips website:

#FediLab

I paid for it at the beginning of 2023. Not worth zhe money.
Totally unstable on my Samsung. The devs could never keep up with the frequent OS updates (often got a notice re/ this) and always very slow in comparison to Tusky or the current official Mastodon app.
The only plus: nice features. (Missing translation function on Tusky.)


Free Software doesn't mean Free as in free beer.

And for this freedom we all should be proud to fund #Fedilab

Five bucks should be okay, if everybody does so.


I have been using the #Fedilab App from #FDroid for a long time. Now, even if, the Play Store version is Free, I am happy with my existing version and won't switch to later.


Today, we made the choice to make Fedilab free on Google Play. #Fedilab

I apologise. I'd like to ask: is this normal behaviour for a program with proxy enabled, where only text is downloaded and all media is downloaded directly?

If I block Fedilab with a firewall so that it works exclusively through a proxy, then access to media content is completely blocked. Is this the way it was designed or is it a bug?


Hello @apps

I've a big whish. Please add the possibility to follow a single person from another instance (which is potentially blocked by my instance), via the timeline feature.

It's possible to follow a complete Mastodon instance with #fedilab, but it would be nice to follow only a single account (like @potus@threads.net), because following @threads.net makes no sense (for me).

It seems that #Fedilab started to fail for some instances. That happens on older devices (Android 5 and 6).
We will reintroduce conscrypt to patch the security provider for older devices.

BTW, link opens in #FediLab and then works in the standard browser FYI.

(FediLab, alas, is unusuable on a current #Samsung smartphone, keeps crashing for months on end as the developers never can keep up with the frequent OS updates.)

First thing I do when I set up #Fedilab. 😂
