Is anyone using Pixelfed: https://pixelfed.org/?

Any thoughts, good or bad?

Cheers

First time I have heard about it.
Thanks for the link…

Heard of it about a week ago, I only know of one person on the Leica forum who’s signed up, but not really used it yet. Reaction is positive given Flickr has a practical monopoly, which is never a good thing.

I thought it was more of an Instagram alternative versus Flickr?

Too complex. A million channels to sift through and individually apply to join? It seems a bit specific and un-general.
I don't know? I enjoy the general mix of things rather than specifically curated ones.

Is anybody using it? I'd like to look before I 'leap' and check it out before going through the registration process.

I tried it when I signed up for a Mastodon account a year or so ago. It's a bit slow and the interface isn't appealing. I've been using Foto as a beta user for some time and that shows a lot more promise.

Here's an overview of a few sites. I may have to go look at some of them.
