As with all the fediverse stuff, it feels like early Instagram when you weren't bombarded by a million ads and celebrity bullshit all the time. It feels like a great community of amateur photographers coming together to share and be inspired again to take photos. That's why I like it.

Sounds great. How does sorting work on it? Is it just who you subscribe to and show what was the most recent?

Yeah it's either the latest from who you follow, local timelines or the federated one.

Cool! Just joined the largest instance via Verrisage (sp?) hope to see you around! Going to post some 35mm shots of mine soon.
