Regardless of the negative aspects, Meta joining the Fediverse will definitely make the numbers of active users explode. This will probably bring the network and its concepts to many people and also a matter of public debate.

    Have you checked out Pixelfed lately? The main developer is going like gangbusters over the last couple of months. It’s maturing quickly. I don’t think that guy sleeps.

      Been hearing a lot about pixelfed. So is it comparable to say Instagram or is it a microblogging platform like Mastodon.

        Mostly an Insta clone. Every post starts with one to ten pictures, with text below. So it’s more suited to posting photos than text.

        I actually think it’s better than Instagram in some ways now. That being said, some of the instances are a little slow, but that’s not the fault of the software.
