Pixelfed got featured on the Wired and here's what @dansup@mastodon.social, the author of @pixelfed@mastodon.social, 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.
Yeah. Firefish is to Mastodon what Kbin is to Lemmy
Cool, thanks for the info!
Is there an android app?
Yes, but it isn't on f-droid or google play.
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 @pixelfed@mastodon.social on mastodon for updates. There are also 3rd party apps, but I haven't tried any.
Pixelfed for iOS (Beta) still refuses to upload any of my photos from my iPhone.
Ultimated Privacy Achieved!! lol
Thanks for this, registered on the .de site and the app seems to work. Now to post some photos....
@bady i haven’t used instagram in some years, it i still have a lot of photos and memories saved there from way back when. i might do this…
they got stories?
I am fairly certain they do.
The backend capabilities are there. The front end for the Web view must be enabled by the admin and the mobile apps currently lack the feature.
Yes. Scroll to the end https://pixelfed.org/features
Has this actually worked for anyone? I click on Review Uploads and the website either crashed or nothing happens.
