#Vernissage now supports uploads with #C2PA Content Credentials and displays certificate and provenance details. The attachments show the panel for a camera photo and an AI-generated image. Explore the first example: https://vernissage.photos/statuses/7704370278968592687 Here’s hoping this standard becomes more widespread - knowing where an image comes from matters!

📷 The October 2026 #Vernissage report is here! Read about this month’s costs, community growth, and plans for C2PA support. 💚 Thank you for every kind of support! Donations covered 52.5% of October’s costs. If you enjoy Vernissage, please consider contributing to keep it independent and ad-free. Just photography and the people behind it.

Once again, a grant application to support #Vernissage has been rejected. This time, #NLnet declined funding for #C2PA photo provenance. I’m genuinely sad and disappointed. #C2PA is an open standard, unlike Apple’s proprietary Reference Image solution. I’ll implement it in Vernissage anyway, but on a much smaller scale than I had hoped. 😔

For now, I don’t plan to apply to #NLnet again. Maybe #Vernissage simply isn’t well known enough to the people making these decisions. Being an independent open-source developer is tough. Corporations benefit from our work without giving much back. I honestly thought finding European funding for a European open-source project would be easier. It’s exhausting and, frankly, discouraging.😔

🚀 Direct Messages have arrived in #Vernissage! The latest version is now live on vernissage.photos⁠, and the updated iOS app with Direct Messages support is also available on the App Store! Next up: improving support for mentions without attached photos. 😉 #Vernissage #Fediverse #ActivityPub

I am discovering #Vernissage and I just created my account there. I was surprised by the News section, which gives full transparency about donations and how the money was spent: https://vernissage.photos/news/7681636639113743034 Their discovery timeline is just beautiful! I was amazed. A question for artists: why isn't Vernissage better known? Are there barriers I haven't noticed?

Does anyone know if #vernissage has a photo quota or account quota? I tried searching but couldn't find anything. #askfedi

A quick comparison of our Pixelix Themes. We have a light, dark and a AMOLED theme. Which one do you prefer? #Pixelix #Vernissage #Pixelfed #iOS #Android #Themes #UI #Fediverse #FOSS

A lot of new people have joined #Vernissage recently - which is wonderful to see! ❤️ But I haven’t noticed many new patrons. If you enjoy the platform, please consider supporting it on Patreon. Nothing online is truly free: Big Tech pays the bills with ads, addictive algorithms and your privacy. #Vernissage has none of that - but hosting still costs money. I’ve also added new Patreon tiers for anyone who’d like to support the project even more. Thank you so much! 😊

Hello Pixelfed, this is our first post here! Pixelix is a client for Pixelfed and Vernissage. The app is available on the Play Store, the App Store, on GitHub and F-Droid. We (@(@daniebeler@pixelix.social @hiebeler05@vernissage.photos@pixelfed.social) have been developing Pixelix for more than 2 years and will share updates, features, and other things about Pixelix on this account. #Fediverse #Pixelix #Pixelfed #Vernissage #Android #iOS

Pixelix is now free! After two and a half years of developing Pixelix and having it as a paid app, we've decided to switch things up and make Pixelix free for everyone. We’re really excited to see where this takes Pixelix, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us so far. #Pixelix #Pixelfed #Vernissage #Fediverse #OpenSource #Android #iOS
