I have two questions here:
1) Does Finland have this as well?
2) If not, how many seconds from now will they? hehehe!

How Sweden’s ‘secondhand only’ shopping mall is changing retail

secondhand

I sometimes use Etsy to seconhand shop from other nations. The results are still less expensive than buying new. My favourites have been a dress from Finland, a dress from France, and the most awesome, something Dr Who would wear vest from Italy.

In a lonely world, widespread AI chatbots and ‘companions’ pose unique psychological risks

"Nearly all AI models were built without expert mental health consultation or pre-release clinical testing. There’s no systematic and impartial monitoring of harms to users.

Cover Photo Add-On for Friendica

Screenshot of the Cover Photo Add-On User Interface

I got a little sidetracked from working on a new theme and ended up making this add-on that finally creates a user interface for setting/changing/showing Friendica's built-in profile Cover Photo. Every other social media platform out there shows these, it's about time Friendica did too. I'm looking for any server admins who want to test this on a live server.

Okay, you might know them as a "Header Image" (Mastodon, Tumblr), "Banner" (Bluesky), or "Cover Photo" (Facebook). I'm sticking with "Cover Photo" because that's what I called it in my Bookface scheme for Frio, and because the words "header" and "banner" are used in Friendica's code to refer to half a dozen different things. For example the back-end functions are things like "uploadBanner" and "getDefaultBanner" but the data is stored in the profile's "header" key because the "banner" key is for something else. So "Cover Photo" it is!

Until now the only way to set/change/see this image in Friendica was if you were using one of the third-party mobile apps that supports Friendica it could be (somewhat) managed through the API. But there was no interface for doing it through the Friendica website/webapp and none of the available themes would show it. I've been working on a new theme for Friendica that would support showing it and ended up making this add-on to show it in every theme.

I have tested this in both the 2024.12 stable release and the 2025.07 release candidate. So far as I can tell it works equally well in either of them. This is how it shows the "Cover Photo" on the profile in all of the main themes:

It will also show the image across ALL the top of the Profile sub-pages
* /profile/username/
* /profile/username/profile
* /profile/username/conversations
* /profile/username/photos (but none of the photo sub-pages)
* /profile/username/media
* /profile/username/calendar
* /profile/username/notes
* /profile/username/schedule
* /profile/username/contacts (and all sub-pages)
* /contact/00 (where "00" is the contact ID number)
* /contact/00/conversations
* /contact/00/posts
* /contact/00/media
* /contact/00/contacts (and all sub-pages)

You can paste a public image URL into the box if you're pulling it from elsewhere or you can browse for an image in your Photos library. Either way Friendica makes a copy and puts it in a "Banner Photos" album. On submission the add-on will check whether it is a local image or not, and if it is local it will check the permissions and warn you if you selected a non-public image.

You will likely also want to go into your Friendica Settings > Account > Security and Privacy and tick the box for "Make all posted pictures accessible". Other platforms don't know how to handle Friendica's photo permissions. What this does is make sure if you posted a publicly accessible image that it is actually publicly accessible to other platforms.

On my development server I have my stable and RC Friendica installs connected to a WordPress install sharing over ActivityPub. In my testing it successfully shows the Cover Photos for the ActivityPub users. I'm assuming it will show "Header Images" from Mastodon as well but I have not been able to test this. I'm also not sure if you set a Cover Photo with this add-on whether or not it propagates to other platforms.

I included translations for a dozen languages, but these are AI translations so I can't say if they're nonsense or not. I only know English.

Oh, and another important thing is it won't show you any Cover Photos for anyone, including yourself, if you don't at the very least tick the "Enable Cover Photos on Profiles" checkbox in the add-on!

Lastly, if you already set up a Cover Photo using the [class=coverphoto]…[/class] method in Bookface you can also use the add-on, but on some Profile pages your BBcoded one will override the Friendica-native one. You could also set them to the same image and nobody would notice.

Ok, I don't know what's going on here. I did not see this on my Dev Server but am seeing it on a live server:

I see a flash of the thumbnail image and then it's replaced with this. The thumbnail image is there if I switch themes from "Frio" to "Vier." I also had to set a coverphoto more than once and refresh my "Photos" multiple times to get it to show the "Banner Photos" album at all.

My add-on does not create the "Banner Photos" album nor does it generate the thumbnails. I believe those are handled by the Photo::uploadBanner() function. Or it's something in how "Frio" generates the Photo albums since "Vier" isn't doing this. I don't know. I can't reproduce this on my Dev Server.

in reply to Random Penguin

Random Penguin

in reply to Random Penguin • 3 months ago • •

Okay, I've narrowed it down. This is only happening in "Frio" because of the jQuery "justifiedGallery" framework. It is adding a dash and a random number to the end of the image URL, but it is also throwing an Uncaught TypeError: this.resetImgSrc is not a function. I've searched through every JS file for both Frio and the Friendica core and can't find "resetImgSrc" defined anywhere. Why this is only affecting the Cover Photo thumbnails I have no clue. I don't know where that dash and number are getting added to the thumbnail image URL either.

More investigating I guess...

in reply to Random Penguin

Random Penguin

in reply to Random Penguin • 3 months ago • •

This is only happening in "Frio" and has something to do with the jQuery justifiedGallery framework and to do with a dash and number added to the end of the thumbnail image URL. It looks like the thumbnails for those cover photos already have the that in the filename and then something is trying to add another one and then the URL doesn't point to an actual file anymore. I need to figure out where that URL is getting altered or why the URL is coming into the page already appended.

The good news is this doesn't affect the actual cover photos, just the thumbnails in your photo albums and only in the Frio theme.

And much to my frustration these things are not happening on my Dev Server which makes me think some Admin setting or server config might be a factor.

Except the thumbnails actually show in the Photo modal, just not in the Photos page. Very frustrating to debug!

MISSING THUMBNAILS FIX FOR FRIO

Okay, I've figured out a fix for the missing Banner Photo album thumbnails. It is being caused by the jQuery justifiedGallery script, which is adding a sizing suffix to the image when there is already one there. So I just added a check for the suffix before adding it and that fixed it.

Admins who want to patch it right now just replace the script at /view/theme/frio/frameworks/justifiedGallery with this one:

github.com/randompenguin1/frie…

I have also submitted a PR for this change.

This only addresses the missing thumbnail issue. It does not fix any of the other image gallery issues.

I think this may have something to do with Banner/Cover Photos not going through the normal image upload process when Friendica generates the image copy? Not sure about that.

It isn't instant, it takes a bit of time to propagate, but these DO go through to Mastodon and presumably any other ActivityPub platform that shows cover photos.

in reply to Random Penguin • 3 months ago • •

ok, that was easier to test than I feared..
In the same go I also installed the Bookface scheme, because I wanted to have the cover photo shown as banner in the background.
It works as I expected, so that is great! However, I tested with three different images with different dimensions (one panorama, two normal-size) and all of them are getting blurred on the profile page. Is this something you are aware of? Or is it because I should you specific dimensions on the image?

in reply to 𝕔𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤 • 3 months ago • •

What's happening is if you select an image from your Photos library in Frio/Bookface the image being set for your profile is being scaled to 640 pixels wide. This is only happening in Frio so I suspect it's yet another error being caused by the jQury justifiedGallery script.

Because none of the other themes use that framework and they all process the image properly. Also, if you go to the Photos section on your profile and click an image until you get down to where it just displays the raw image in your browser, copy that URL and paste that]/i] into the add-on the image will not be resized to 640 pixels wide. If it was really big it may be downsized to 960 pixels wide because the Photo::uploadBanner() scales the images down to that.

I need to look into where/how the 640 pixel resizing is happening, but again it seems to be the gallery in Frio that is doing it.

That said, the Photo gallery modal doesn't work right in [i]any theme. Vier won't let me select a sub-album, only images showing as "Recent" on the first page. Frio

𝕔𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤

in reply to Random Penguin • 3 months ago • •

ok, tried your workaround and it did not work.

but then I reread your message and it sounds like, that images wider than 960 will be scaled down. Does that mean that screens wider than 960px will use a stretched version of the 960px image? if so, that could explain why my image is blurred?

in reply to 𝕔𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤

Random Penguin

in reply to 𝕔𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤 • 3 months ago • •

The downsizing is hard-coded into the Friendica core Photo::uploadBanner() function. There's nothing I can do about that. Bookface scales the image up to 1920px wide which would make it look a little blurry. If it's the 640 pixel wide image it will look really blurry.

In a future update to Bookface I'm likely going to limit the width of the cover photo to 960px instead of 1920px to prevent the blurring issue.

The workaround should work if the image is publicly visible. It should work with image URLs from anywhere actually. But you have to make sure you are all the way to the raw image where it is the only thing in the browser window and the URL in the address bar ends in ".jpeg" or ".png"

I would also recommend server admins either leave this Admin Setting at "-1" or if you do wish to limit the dimensions don't set it any lower than 960.

Ugh! And yet *another* problem I just discovered with the Photo gallery modal. If the image you select has a caption stored it will fail to get the URL properly. I need to fix the JS code that extracts the image URL. That never occurred to me because on my Dev Server I never enter captions for the images I upload. But I do on a live server and it just bit me.

Stay tuned for an update soon. I want to see if I can fix another issue with the modal image browser before I push an update.

in reply to Random Penguin • 3 months ago • •

I never noticed this before but apparently you never could navigate to sub-albums in the Photo Browser modal in Vier? I just tried it on 3 different servers. The problem is the links go to "#" (nowhere) instead of the sub-albums. If they're supposed to have JS listeners attached to them they don't.

Anyway, that's a separate problem that has nothing to do with my Add-on.

UPDATE TO VERSION 1.1

DOWNLOAD HERE: gitlab.com/randompenguin/cover…

Thanks to all the great feedback here I've already got some fixes in place:

Improved client-side JS error handling
Normalized the script to all be in jQuery (instead of a mix of vanilla JS and jQuery)
Added handling for image URL data from Frio version of browser.js script.
Fixed the regex that extracts the image URL in other themes so it now handles a caption having been set on the image.
Preview now shows the image you just selected from Photo Browser modal.

Some of the other issues can only be fixed in Friendica itself. I've already submitted these as PRs and some are already merged into the dev branch, but Admins can also go grab these scripts and manually replace the files on their server to get the fixes right now:

@Random Penguin Hmm, still not seeing it, I set it up on my personal blog @🌴 Seph 💭 👾 but its not showing up. Assuming @#SpaceHost Help installed the most current version, not sure what's going on. I did have a little trouble selecting a pic, uploaded it, clicked on it, and nothing happened, but when I closed the window, it was there, which is not how pic selection usually works. Once I got the pic properly set as public, it installed, or at least said it did, but I can't see it on my profile nor via my Mastodon.

I don't know if it makes any difference that server is running Friendica 2024.08, I only tested the add-on in 2024.12 and 2025.07-rc.

Try setting it again. In my experience it doesn't always succeed in creating the "Banner Photos" album on the first try. No clue why. My add-on doesn't actually do that part, it's in the Friendica code.

Also make sure you actually ticked the "Enable" checkbox in the add-on and that other platforms can directly access your Friendica public photos, go to Settings > Account > Security and Privacy > Make all posted pictures accessible and tick that checkbox if you haven't done already.

It took a couple hours before my Cover Photo would show up on Mastodon.

@Random Penguin Does it create the space on the profile for it, or is that supposed to already be there, as my profile looks like this:

No space for a profile image unlike your sample images.

@Random Penguin

in reply to Kāpitan

Random Penguin

in reply to Kāpitan • 3 months ago • •

Yes it creates it using the page header hook. It first checks the page name and if it's on one of the profile pages it next checks that the Cover Photo add-on is enabled. If it is then it checks whether the profile array's "header" key has a value or not. If it has a value it inserts a span with the image in it plus a link button to the add-on settings.

(My add-on specifically does not use either User::getBannerUrl() nor Contact::getDefaultBanner() because those will show the default platform banner if you don't have a cover photo of your own set and I only want to show the image if you've set one).

If it is not showing up it means either the "Enable" checkbox is not ticked in the add-on settings or it never set the "header" image in the profile array. The only solution I can offer is to just try and set an image again.

@Random Penguin
Thank you very much for this add-on. It's love at first sight 😀

A note: if a remote profile is called up, the banner sticks directly to the first post. I created a little space with this code in line 68.

$html = $cover_photo = '<span class="coverphoto" style="display:block;width:100%;margin:0 auto;margin-bottom:10px;"><img src="'.$profile['header'].'" style="width:100%;max-width:100%;"/></span>' . $edit_button . $html;

Perhaps this will be of interest to you.

I guess the seamlessness of it didn't bother me, but I can see how it makes the image look like it's part of that first post.

Rather than always adding a 10px margin I made it add it only on other people's profiles, because on your own there will be the edit button - and exactly how much space there is (if any) between that button and the image depends on what theme you are using and how it styles that button type.

So that section now looks like this:

if ($owner == $uid && !preg_match($regex,$_REQUEST['pagename']) ) { // person is looking at their own profile
	$margin = "0 auto";
	$edit_button = '<a href="'.DI::baseUrl().'/settings/addons/coverphoto" class="btn settings-submit btn-sm" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><i class="fa fa-camera" aria-hidden="true"></i> '.DI::l10n()->t('Change Cover Photo').'</a>';
} else {
	margin = "0 auto 10px auto";
	$edit_button = '';
}
// build coverphoto code
$html .= $cover_photo = '<span class="coverphoto" style="display:block;width:100%;margin:'.$margin.';"

I guess the seamlessness of it didn't bother me, but I can see how it makes the image look like it's part of that first post.

So that section now looks like this:

if ($owner == $uid && !preg_match($regex,$_REQUEST['pagename']) ) { // person is looking at their own profile
	$margin = "0 auto";
	$edit_button = '<a href="'.DI::baseUrl().'/settings/addons/coverphoto" class="btn settings-submit btn-sm" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><i class="fa fa-camera" aria-hidden="true"></i> '.DI::l10n()->t('Change Cover Photo').'</a>';
} else {
	margin = "0 auto 10px auto";
	$edit_button = '';
}
// build coverphoto code
$html .= $cover_photo = '<span class="coverphoto" style="display:block;width:100%;margin:'.$margin.';"><img src="'.$profile['header'].'" style="width:100%;max-width:100%;"/></span>' . $edit_button . $html;

You may also notice it is now $html .= instead of just $html = in case there are any other add-ons or functions that hook into page_content_top. Otherwise the coverphoto add-on would overwrite them.

Anyone see these? How are they asking to verify one’s account? Does it involve submitting account credentials?

🚨 Mastodon Support Scam 🚨 It looks like there's another wave of fake Mastodon support accounts asking you to verify your account. Do NOT click on any links in these posts. Please report them to your server admin as soon as possible.

They tell you you need to verify your account to continue using it, and link to a different site with "mastodon" somewhere in the URL, the website asks for credit card credentials.

Thirty years ago, this week, an article diagnosing the "Californian Ideology" of Silicon Valley was published. This scathing critique has become a badge of honor for the new tech right.

As I argue today in Tech Policy Press, it has never been more relevant: techpolicy.press/thirty-years-…

Thirty Years On, the Californian Ideology is Alive and Well

In the seminal essay, Barbrook and Cameron insisted that there are other ways to build technology, and to do it democratically, writes Nathan Schneider.

This makes me think there are some very weird contradictions going on. Am I correct to think a parent in the UK could easily gift their child a mature game in a physical format, but not a mature Steam game? Would either even be illegal? Or only the Steam one because it’s digital?

It seems like all PC games are currently digital, but most console games are still available in a physical format. So a 13 year old could presumably be gifted mature games and could trade them with friends.

I think I heard that 16 year olds in the UK can enter bars? Can parents give a 16 year old alcohol? I’d imagine that would be more harmful than gifting a 16 year old Halo 3.

Quick update:
There was a miscommunication concerning the future of ARM devices in the recent Mastodon post announcing the discontinuation of the PinePhone Pro.

New devices from PineStore will continue to come with ARM SOCs and will not be going away in favor of RISC-V models. Devices will continue releasing with variations like the PineTab2 and PineTab-V.

This should have been communicated earlier so we apologize.

Have a great weekend!

I do understand of shutting down PinePhone Pro due to low sales, but does the base PinePhone line still live, not being discontinued (like some of the "news sites" interpreted)? E.g. can we expect PinePhone 2?
The closest alternatives are very expensive. Android is Windows in mobile world.
