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

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

🚨 Manyfold v0.147.1 is out, with a security fix for #Rails CVE-2026-66066. Update your instances! 🚨

2026-07-30 11:40:43 UTC

Averaging out over a few weeks, we get a Docker pull for `latest` every 30 seconds. We have no idea what that translates to in terms of actual instances, but it seems good. Or maybe it's just one really really zealous instance somewhere. checking for updates. 🤷

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!

we don't have Bambu yet, because (a) they're a bit walled-cloud about it all, and (b) @npub1zps…43k4 doesn't have one to try. But it's definitely a big one to get done, either via the developer mode connection or via https://bambuddy.cool

2026-06-19 12:20:53 UTC

The next release of Manyfold will include the ability to send GCODE and SL1 files (as appropriate) directly to printers via @npub17mn…mfy0, Klipper, PrusaLink and Odyssey.
It could really do with some pre-release testing against real machines, so if you'd like to try it out, swap to the `edge` tag, join the support channel (https://app.element.io/#/room/#manyfold-support:matrix.org
), and let us know if it works!

#3DPrinting folks! If your printer is networked, what API does it provide?
I've not included Octoprint or Klipper, because we already have those!

2026-06-17 13:10:26 UTC

- reply

there isn't at the moment, but some folks in the support channel (https://matrix.to/#/#manyfold-support:matrix.org) have discussed the need for one.
In general though, if you start with the default path template and enable "parse metadata from path", it should give you *something* usable which you can then reorganise by filtering the detected tags.
The support channel will be happy to guide more though, if you want.

very very happy to clarify, it's important to challenge this stuff! Thank you!

2026-06-17 11:31:33 UTC

Manyfold is making the connection direct to the printer, browser isn't involved. So, if you were away from home and had access to Manyfold, you could still start a print. But it's all behind the appropriate authentication and policy checks, so attackers shouldn't be able to send anything to your printer.

2026-06-17 11:28:49 UTC

any other concerns it raises, do please let us know, we may not have thought of everything!

2026-06-17 11:28:02 UTC

- reply

you can configure printer connections in the settings, and then it will show a link for compatible file types.
At the moment it's just for admins, there will be good controls in place before other users can use it. Most likely we'll add a "printer" role that admins can grant to other users.
And it's totally on the user to be sure that the GCODE is physically compatible with the printer! We will add a confirmation dialog to make sure users know that!

2026-06-17 10:56:10 UTC

The next Manyfold release is gonna get... physical!

Note: when upgrading to v0.139.0, it might look like all your models have been removed from their collections. Don't worry, an automated process is running in the background and they will be back once that completes - shouldn't take more than a few minutes.
