My feed on Pixelfed is way better the second week, now that I've followed a couple dozen folks and put some posts out there.

And pro tip: Post and tag a cute picture of your pet and people will see your account.

They need some starter packs like BlueSky because all I’m seeing are some art photography highly likely ai generated - and I have no idea where to find content that has any value. On searching the hashtags I’m getting mastodon posts containing links that can’t be clicked.

Kick ass! I'm all for more Fediverse stuff getting popular, and if this has any competition, just means more features will be added across all of them.

Is this the fediverse's answer to Instagram?

[–] bruhsoulz@lemmy.ml 62 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (26 children)

Yes.

-Instagram has pixelfed. -Reddit has lemmy -X has Mastodon/Misskey/Pleroma (&forks..) -Tiktok has loops (app still super rough around the edges and sadly on limited to one instance rather than having its own software from what i understand) -Youtube has peertube (so far the least used i think)

Does anyone have recommendations who to follow on pixelfed?

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Yesterday I revived my old Pixelfed account, and I have set myself a challenge, upload one photo every day for a month.

I have plenty of photos from the last decade to pick from

I don't know if this will mean that my account will be active in the long run, but I'll give it an honest try.

I posted this earlier in the thread:
