PixelFed has increased the Fediverse's monthly active users by over 40% in the last few weeks, how do we feel?
-
There's an official app now.

The Discovery section definitely needs work, but the ability to follow hashtags offsets that somewhat. I’ve found loads of great photographers to follow off the back of following hashtags that I’m interested in.

Same problem with Mastodon tbh

You can post from PixelFed into Lemmy but you won't see replies and that's too bad.
-
well, i'm against individual workarounds for common problems, there should be common solutions.
otherwise you just start alienating 99% of the users who won't put in the effort to install an extra app just to get that filtering, or if using the web interface on mobile, it's just not possible.

Well it doesn't seem like there's been another Reddit exodus, especially from looking at the user numbers for Lemmy. There hasn't been a big screwup lately like with Meta or Twitter (but I think Bluesky is absorbing the Twitter refugees currently).

Well on Lemmy the quality of content dropped. Low effort posts started becoming normalized. Lots of people entered who dont know what the Downvote button is for.
-
Wut. That doesn't sound secure
-
Bluesky is doing well though.

Oh thanks for giving me a proper term to use when pointing at my biggest problem with the Fediverse.
Has it ever been discussed by any developers? Is it technically possible for ActivityPub? Would the costs be exorbitant?

You can just open the Pixelfed links using your Mastodon instance.
