Editing to let people know that I will be blocking anyone who feels the need to tell me why this graph is inaccurate. I truly don't care, but feel free to chime in with your useless take and land a spot on my block list! π
325,000 users? Had no idea.
does anyone know why this sudden uptick?
Combo of terrible moderation rules changes by meta, the release of the pixelfed app on Android and iOS, and coverage of that app by major tech news outlets.
Along with people being unhappy with Meta, and the looming TikTok ban, Pixelfed just now released apps for it.
Meta has changed their ToS. Prior, you could not accuse someone of being mentally ill without consequence. Now there is an exception allowing shitty people to accuse someone of being mentally ill if they are gay or trans. It's seriously fucked up.
Also, Mark Zuckerberg, the ostrich fucker, removed the fact checker from Meta services.
Ostrich⦠fucker?
Yeah, I wondered the same thing, and found the answer: https://ifunny.co/picture/mark-zuckerberg-who-fucked-an-ostrich-announces-meta-will-stop-d9KZTB25C
In this, the worst timeline, I am glad that there is no need to add "allegedly", as Zuck is clearly an alpha degen.
https://vernissage.photos/home may be better than Pixelfed. https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/28641458
Who pays for their servers?
The heard "someday" there will be Groups...
I still can't get a loops account.
nothing much on there from what I've seen, has potential though
It still doesn't have a webapp that was supposed to ship weeks ago. The android app is buggy, laggy and doesn't allow direct capture from the camera. I'd say loops is not ready yet.
hmmm.. I never tried out pixelfed. I will now.
edit: oauth not working :/
