Pixelfed got featured on the Wired and here’s what @[email protected], the author of @[email protected], says:

All those long nights working on backend scalability and performance improvements are about to be put to the test

I wasn’t anticipating this attention for a few more months, but I’m ready 😎

    Hope this gets Pixelfed the attention it deserves. The app has improved so much in the last few months.

    Kbin/Lemmy is the only Fediverse thing I’ve been able to get into…Mastodon and Pixelfed just don’t have the things/people I want to follow. I only use Mastodon here and there thanks to the bird.makeup instance which clones people’s twitter accounts. If I didn’t…that feed would be a ghost town…Is there one that clones Instagram for Pixelfed?

      Defo check out firefish.social if you’re not into Mastodon. It’s got a lot of lovely features I wanted out of other mastodon apps.

        The apps are listed on the official website. The official app is in public beta, but I hope it gets a public release soon. You can follow @[email protected] on mastodon for updates. There are also 3rd party apps, but I haven’t tried any.

    Awesome! Now, if only I could move my Mastodon toots or PixelFed photos to another server. Sure, I can redirect my accounts, but then I’m stuck with the old content on another feed.

    Has this actually worked for anyone? I click on Review Uploads and the website either crashed or nothing happens.
