Dear #3dPrinting-verse,

valhalla@social.gl-como.it

is there something I should know about prusa / printables.com?

I was vaguely thinking about making an account and publishing a few stl files for convenience (the original files are on my git repo, and they will remain there, but they are published as openscad source code), is it something I should avoid?

I don't think that there is a fediverse platform for 3d-printing files, right? mediaGoblin never got activityPub compatibility, iirc?

openess@skrivel.se

@valhalla

There is @manyfold. I have no experience with it but I think it's a federated 3D-models platform.

And if there's anything to know about prusa I'd like to know too. That's my first goto if I'm looking for a download (and also they made my printer so ).

valhalla@social.gl-como.it

@openess @manyfold ooooo, that's very interesting!

manyfold@3dp.chat

@openess @valhalla it is indeed! Take a look at https://manyfold.app or sign up to our public instance https://3dprint.social

valhalla@social.gl-como.it

@manyfold @openess already done :D

(btw, is the "u;" in the account name something that needs to be there, or some kind of glitch?)

manyfold@3dp.chat

@valhalla @openess the name we ask for gets used as the *creator* name (which is what people would follow), not the account username (which doesn’t get used for much). The prefix is intentional but we know it’s ugly, one day we hope to come up with something better!

@manyfold another question: is it supposed to federate with the fediverse or just with other mayfond instances?

I tried to follow the user from my friendica account and it failed (and @fabrixxm did a few more debugging tests, he may have more details), and I'm not sure on which side the issue would be

manyfold@3dp.chat

@valhalla @fabrixxm it’s supposed to be followable from anywhere, but there may well be bugs! Did you follow a user, or a creator handle?

valhalla@social.gl-como.it

@manyfold @fabrixxm I think I tried @ valhalla @ 3dprint.social 3dprint.social/creators/valhal… and @ u;valhalla @ 3dprint.social

manyfold@3dp.chat

@valhalla @fabrixxm hm, ok the first one should be ok, just managed to follow it from here (Mastodon). Could well be a bug with other interop… could you pop any details you can into an issue on our GitHub repo? https://github.com/manyfold3d/manyfold

valhalla@social.gl-como.it

@fabrixxm can you add the details you've found last thursday? should I open the issue and they you'll add to it?

@manyfold

@fabrixxm and here is the issue, when you have time to do those tests again and add the data you got from them:
