Pixelfed’s time to shine. We all succeed with this one!

For those who want to know, Mastodon is first, Peertube is third and Lemmy is coming in at fourth place on MAUs

So wait, is it like using lemmy? I mean with choosing a server for your account. (Looks lke it, yes) Does it have a "front page" like lemmy? (It does)

Is it subject oriented, or person to person like twitter. (Person oriented, and tags for subjects)

Edit: Im editing in (my findings) while taking a looksee.

Edit. F it. i signed up.

I was never one to use Instagram, specifically because of the meta bullshit... looks like maybe I'll try pixelfed as a first time for the format.

If someone would have told me this like a couple of years back, back when most people (besides the foss community) didn’t know about it, I deffo wouldn’t have believed you lol.

It’s nice to see some alternatives getting promoted though.

That number has to be low. There's been nearly 200k new signups in the last few days. Pixelfed's blowing up right now. The local feed on p.s is a never-ending stream of first posts.

Maybe someone can help me out. I'm in the app, is there a way to see a feed from all of pixelfed and not just local? I'm on pxlmo.com

Time for me to jump onto the bandwagon. You'll never know because it will not be under this pseudonym.

I never tried PixelFed and just signed up to pixel.tchncs.de. As a client I downloaded Pixelix from F-Droid. Now I'm there with an empty feed. How do I get started?

There's a section with trending profiles and one with trending hashtags but both sections seem to have pretty generic content like #art, #photography, #photos etc.

Don't get me wrong, it's nice photographies and all but it feels really anonymous and a bit random to me. Is this the normal PixelFed experience or am I doing it wrong?

What is it?

Fediverse version of imgur?

What's the best Pixelfed instance?

Yeah, pixelfed is definetly the most normie friendly. Even my friend was able to make an account.

I made an account but I don't really see the appeal. It just feels like a bunch of random photos at the moment. Nothing I really feel like following, as it will just be more random photos.
