The decentralized Instagram alternative is a great option if you want to back up your feed, focus on photo-sharing, or cut loose from Meta's empire entirely. And making the leap is surprisingly easy.

All those long nights working on backend scalability and performance improvements are about to be put to the test

    Kbin/Lemmy is the only Fediverse thing I’ve been able to get into…Mastodon and Pixelfed just don’t have the things/people I want to follow. I only use Mastodon here and there thanks to the bird.makeup instance which clones people’s twitter accounts. If I didn’t…that feed would be a ghost town…Is there one that clones Instagram for Pixelfed?

      Defo check out firefish.social if you’re not into Mastodon. It’s got a lot of lovely features I wanted out of other mastodon apps.
