Federated 3D print files (Manyfold)

I just thought this was cool and wanted to share it here. It looks like there's an instance up now, go add stuff to it if you can!

Oh cool. Finally answered the question on where to reasonably publish my models. Now I just need to make them

wrote last edited by [email protected]This rules, can't wait to see how federation works!! It seems like each project shows up in the fediverse as an actor? Like for example this project: @[email protected]
I kind of naively thought they'd show up as posts or something. Maybe what this means is, all the subcontent of the project show up as posts instead? If so, that seems pretty neat! Like potentially the 3d files themselves federate out as posts?
Not sure why I'm wildly speculating when all this is surely documented somewhere lol

I really like that the 3d preview has a scale!

But speculating without reading documentation is so fun! I love doing that, then reading the docs and realising how wrong and backwards my ideas were.

Love the idea, unfortunately it relies on cdn.jsdelivr.net to work so I won't use it. It also is trying to access the server: analytics.eu.umami.is to view. I can see the 3dprint.social website, but not any images. I personally never use a website that requires a 3rd party connection to any server that could be accessed by other websites. The standardization of this practice is none of my concern, but it is wrong on many levels of ethics and big picture politics that ultimately impact democracy. Specifically, I may decide to trust your server, but I will never give you agency, real or potential, over me and implicitly trust others as a result of that relationship. Anyways, that is my personal choice, speaking as a user, but as a Mod: also why I'm not going to directly promote this site as it is configured currently. This is no different than my stance on Printables or Thingiverse.

these projects just need help. if you find their code repo or matrix or workspace they are often very receptive to specific feedback like this.
open an issue as next step. your critique is valid but critique is only so helpful when you're a small dev team trying to do ambitious things. would rather see merge requests.

You can't follow a post. Making the project am actor lowers the amount of federated data. If a user was an actor and you wanted to federate a project, you'd have to federate all their projects.
