These are the major updates coming to the next Pixelfed app build along with several bug fixes!

John Oliver's Last Week Tonight mentions #Mastodon and #PixelFed as alternatives that are "not as desperate to fall in line with trump".

Honestly 3 things that could make pixel fed better from what I’m thinking 💭 could be

A. Livestream feature 🎥

B. Let us upload videos instead of just photos 🌁

C. Some type of way to make cash 💰??

We're not only building Pixelfed, but also Loops, a TikTok alternative!

We need your support now more than ever, please spread the word about our Kickstarter!

The future is federated, and belongs to the people.

Boost if you agree ✨

My patrons already have access to the process pictures (all paid tiers), and next week Apprentices and above will get the full process video with commentary! ✨

Someone explain PixelFed to me. Can I use it to make it easier to post photos to Mastodon on this account? Or is it a completely different thingy? (By thingy I mean platform or instance.) I don’t find it easy to post photos or short video clips here. Would PixelFed fix that? Or is is just a different realm where people share pictures?

By popular demand, a single post to boost global switch day across multiple platforms on February 1st 2025.


For those who can no longer get behind Musk or Meta's new policies and feel like switching (e.g. from #Whatsapp to #Signal, from #Instagram to #Pixelfed or from #X to #Mastodon) I made you some graphics to use freely in communicating with your contacts.

Let’s lead by example 🙂

Bigger and better!

This past week I have heard the same question thrown around over and over again: "what's the point of setting up a #Pixelfed account if the software is interoperable with the rest of the Fediverse? Why not just post photos on Mastodon or Sharkey or __?"

Well, #Pixelfed allows you to have a beautiful, curated feed of your photos.

See:
1️⃣ my self-hosted Pixelfed feed
2️⃣ the way my #Mastodon feed appears on Pixelfed

as evidence.

Thank you @dansup for giving us an awesome Fedi photo platform 🙏

Yeah, I got into Yale. Big deal.

Imagine being able to use our app with your @Mastodon account.

During an internal pre-hackathon, our team member @trwnh came up with this idea.

Shipping soon ✨

Browsing the local feed firehose right now is crazy banana pants.

It's like a big worldwide party going on! 🎉🥳

Holy shit #Pixelfed

😲 This is just nuts! 😲

When you click on 'email' or 'password' you get thrown to "sudo mode" (good luck explaining that) and it looks entirely different. No clear way to 'go back'. You no longer see different profile options. "sudo mode" takes over your browser tab entirely.

What a weird flow.

alright, I'm seeing renewed interest in #pixelfed so I figured I'd explain the #fediverse in a way that makes sense to people. with pictures. sit back, it'll be interesting, I promise! 🧵

(note that this isn't about bluesky. they're built different and I don't know enough about how they work)

With this current Fedi exodus from Meta platforms and X, I'd like to ask: Could we PLEASE remove the file size limit for posting photos and other images to Mastodon and Pixelfed? They get compressed anyway, so why should the user also have to their own compressing before uploading?
@Gargron @dansup @pixelfed

A reminder for people who want to limit their #Meta intake:

#WhatsApp > #Signal (https://signal.org)
#Instagram > #Pixelfed (https://pixelfed.org)
#Threads > #Mastodon (https://joinmastodon.org)
#Facebook > #Friendica (https://friendi.ca), #Hubzilla (https://hubzilla.org)

"So the posts with that hashtag exist?"

"Yes."

"Can I see them?"

"......No."

#Pixelfed

Edit:
@dansup is there a setting i need to change? Maybe i missed something. It's funny annoying either way.

Everybody wanna be a fedisite

Small steps, big progress. 🌱

Every journey starts with a single step.

We're crafting our mobile app that seamlessly blends the beauty of photography with the power of the fediverse.

And it keeps getting better, thanks to your feedback!

You can expect a new app build this weekend, hopefully the last one before we release it to everyone 🚀

Everyone deserves to feel safe and respected online.

That's why we're introducing new comment controls to Pixelfed next month.

This new safety feature puts you in charge of your interactions, creating a safer and more welcoming space for everyone.

Hello #pixelfed !
We are building tools for Pixelfed to help you save time, manage your posts and much more to come!

Excited to be here
