I’m a little underwhelmed by the iOS app itself, but the content is great

Hopefully Pixelfed continues to bloom into a solid community!

The app doesn’t really feel native, and doesn’t have features like clicking to enlarge an image. If it’s open source I’d look into helping though

I don’t know. Pictures of people’s dog and what they’re eating for lunch. It’s like subscribing to getty images.

The Impressia for Pixelfed app has been serving me well the past 6 months.

I was wondering about that app as I saw the listing. I'm glad someone likes it.

[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (5 children)

That's odd. I've had the app for like 3 months.

It's as a reaction to the news about TikTok possibly being sold and people jumping to "Red Book", the other Chinese platform. Maybe some people will read the TechCrunch article and consider Pixelfed.

I like pixel fed, but like all federated websites, it doesn't have a lot of content yet.

I'm still trying to figure out why anybody uses ANY software of Chinese origin.

But all it needs to be is "fun" I guess. People literally don't think past that. Then they all do the surprised Pikachu face when something bad happens.

I've always hated TikTok, and avoided it like the plague. I'm not convinced it's a whole psyop or anything, but my trust of it is basically negative.

As for government meddling, I'm not sure yet how I feel about it in this case.

Is that like a federated version of flikr?

Yeah I tried the beta before. I just got a new smartphone so I'm happy it's available I the app store.
