Tip: friendica.au on mobile devices


Unfortunately, Friendica isn't well supported by the different mobile apps that exist for the fediverse. If you use Chrome or another Chromium-based browser (e.g. Vanadium, Vivaldi), you can do the following instead:

  • Open friendica.au in your browser
  • Find the option Add page to home screen
  • Select Install

This will install friendica.au as a web app which behaves similar to a native app.

Play around with different theme settings (under Settings -> Display) to find the one that works best for your mobile device!

Welcome!


Our Friendica instance is less than a week old and still under development, but people are starting to find us - so welcome to our first users!

Even though things may still change a bit it should be mostly stable. So if you found us, feel free to bring in others who might be interested and help bring this place to life!

Also check out aus.social and pixelfed.au for more Australian fediverse. As you are probably aware, you can connect with anyone on these and all other fediverse instances from your friendica.au account.

Let's grow the fediverse into a viable alternative to the big tech social networks!

Lyn doesn't like this.

Hi Lynfox,
unfortunately you cannot change your username, you'll have to delete your account and register a new one.

What's more, once a username has been deleted, it cannot be registered again so you only get one attempt at the one you want.

In your case, I suggest you register your preferred user name (lynfox should be available) and make sure you can log in before deleting the old one - just to be safe.
