I don't personally use it but pixelfed is an Instagram type of site. It's part of the fediverse as well.

    Can I use this login for that site or do I need a new account?

    You'd need to create another account, pixelfed is currently working on a "login with mastodon" feature that will probably be released pretty soon, but even with that you're still technically creating another account, you'll just be able to log into it using a mastodon account and copy your bio, profile pic, follows, and things like that if you want.

    But yeah, there's nothing for lemmy

    i even found out the other day that pixelfed does stories and live streaming!

    though those things are based on reading the configuration settings in documentation, so i have no idea what those features are like….

    also worth noting that as usually with fediverse platforms, pixelfed data is accessible from other platforms like mastodon

    ie you can retoot a pixelfed post afaik, and i believe that at least in kbin that means you can have a threaded conversion about a pixelfed post?
