To finish this week on a good vibe, a few quality of life improvements and fixes have been deployed for Primfeed.

Have a great weekend ahead everyone. 💞

With the videos out of the way, I had time to focus on the Maturity Ratings update I had initially planned for February.

You've raised your voices, I've heard it, and the moderation team and I simplified the Maturity Ratings. We created a page with a breakdown, with examples, for each rating to help you decide what's the best rating for your media.

On top of that, I've added Tooltips when you put your cursor over the ratings and the toggles on post creation, giving you small hints without you having to reread the Terms of Service everytime.

The main changes are:

Thank you 💞

Rules are not optional, and while we want to be a better and more welcoming platform for every residents, having more than 60% of your posts moderated is unacceptable.

You can't depend on the moderators to choose the correct ratings. It's your responsibility as a user to choose wisely.

As promised, Primfeed will now take action against people abusing the moderators team's kindness by locking their account until they reach out.

You’ve been waiting for it, and it’s here. Starting now, you can share videos on Primfeed!

Videos play a huge role in our community, whether it’s to share your latest release, a ride on a pod in the mainland, or you’re making machinima, and I’m so excited to finally add videos to Primfeed.

This has been a long and stressful technical journey for me to make sure that bringing videos is viable and working as expected for the more than 11,000 residents actively using Primfeed every week.

Videos are available to both premium and free users, with the following limits:

I can’t wait to see what you will share on Primfeed, and if you didn’t see it, the Primfeed Community Meetings are coming back! Make sure to know more about the event: https://www.primfeed.com/events/41e8a2a4-ce2a-4f24-8e33-31ca1ec1089e

Thank you 💞

A quality of life update has been published today:

It's been a long time since I checked the feedback portal, but this is the best place to gather feedback and notice bugs. If you haven't already, report any bugs you might have or ask for a new feature. I will also clean it up, removing old or duplicate feature requests and keeping only the ones that I know I will be working on this year to make it easier for everyone to vote and read the portal.

Use your Primfeed account to log in here: https://feedback.primfeed.com/

Thank you for your patience and even though I'm still late for the videos, this is still the big feature planned for the next weeks and I'm actively working on it, it takes more time than planned. ❤️

Today's update introduces something that I wanted to do for a long time: a clear and nice settings panel. 🥹

It may sound a bit useless, but part of my plans for 2025 is to give Primfeed more polished interfaces and take more time to work on each of them. 👍

Thanks to the categories, your settings are better organized and easier to use. There is a clear separation between personal and business settings.

This also allows me to add more settings later (e.g., by giving you Access to your blocking list).

Anyway, thank you as always for your continued support for Primfeed, and the videos should be released within the next 2 weeks. ❤️

One of the main perks of EasyBloggers is its integrations with Primfeed, and today, I'm introducing a new integration to grow your store using Primfeed.

Every logged-in resident on Primfeed in your bloggers' posts.

Any customer looking to buy something featured in a post can request a demo right from the credits before visiting the product locations.

Once they've tried the demo and are happy with it, they can return to the post and click on a product's location.

Since the beginning, Primfeed has been a closed platform without any preview when you share your link on apps or social media. The only way to see the shared content was to be logged in. 😞

For a social media, this restriction was a considerable downside for discoverability, or just knowing what to expect when you click a link. I appreciate your patience during the recent update that made Primfeed unstable for a few hours. This update was necessary to prepare today's update and improve your experience.

Today, I'm excited to announce a significant enhancement to Primfeed. Now, every resident can open their profile and content to the public. You can change this setting by navigating to the "Edit your profile" button on your profile. If you open your profile to the public, your content will be visible to anyone, even if they're not logged into Primfeed.

Each type of link (events, profiles, or posts) now has its own preview when shared on messaging apps or social media. It means that your content will be more visible and engaging, as people will have a better idea of what to expect when they click on your link. This is a huge step in making Primfeed feel like a proper social media, and this is my favorite update so far.

If this is not the case, I'm looking forward to anyone making Primfeed their primary social media where they share their second life, pictures, or thoughts.

Thank you for your ongoing support. I'm working on a blog for Primfeed to go more in-depth about the updates for Primfeed, EasyBloggers, and Second Life. The first article will be available later this month! ❤️

One of the top requested features since the opening of Primfeed is now live: You can now gift Primfeed Pro 🎁

To do so, visit Primfeed's main store, click the payment terminal, and select the Gift button. Enter the recipient's name, and voilà!

The gift option is one of the nice updates residents have been waiting for, and I'm sure you will also appreciate the next one. Someone is telling me that Primfeed is about to go public … 🤫
