      iOS vs Android, and region I expect. Although I’m in the UK, and I can’t imagine it’s that popular here.

        I’m also using iOS in the UK. I just tried searching for Pixelfed in the App Store and the ad was for some sort of golf tutoring app.

        The top search result was the Pixelfed app and the others all other Fediverse apps.

        The ad on top is selected from a pool of ads from companies that paid for their placement up there. If you run the search again, it will probably show an ad for Snapchat or Instagram or something.

          Yeah I understand why it’s there, and that you will see different ones. Just posting here because its target demographics are likely comically different from those that are interested in Pixelfed.

            I don’t think “hates Trump” is a metric that Apple tracks, but I get your point.

              Ha probably not, but you never know. I bet they can determine my ideologies from the publications I’ve blocked on Apple News +, but who knows what they use to build up a profile.

        Yeah, I’ve just scrolled down the iOS App Store, I didn’t see anything for the fediverse.
