Hello! I’ve been mostly away from Lemmy/Piefed for a bit (important to take a break for mental health) but, was hoping that someone could point me to Piefed plugin examples/docs.
I have been experimenting with open-source small language models (recently, Hugging Face’s SmolLM series) both professionally and on my own time and had some excellent accessibility use cases pointed out to me (ex. generating image alt text if absent) that I’d like to look into the practicality of making optionally available to Pixelfed. Because the models that I’m looking at are so small (I can run them on my android phone!), I’m confident that they could be used server-side without resource issues. And I’d also like to see if I can do any more fun, non-AI stuff with plugins too.
Thanks!


Piefed has a simple plugin system added a few months back, general docs for dev can be found here:
