You guys are awesome.

Any updates on when Pixelfed and Friendica will be ready? I’m waiting for the fedecan instance before I sign up for those :)

Pixelfed soon. We have a domain registered and I've started provisioning the infra.

Friendica isn't on our todo list yet, not sure if it will be or not since none of us are regular Facebook users.

Edit: Enough people are asking about friendica that I promise to investigate more after pixelfed is up.

Actually I am ashamed to tell that I am on Facebook, but more out of necessity and to keep in touch with relatives 😬

I deleted FB from my life a few years back, but I'm like >< this close to trying to set up a domain and my own friendica just for family. Back in the days of chronological order, FB was really nice for sharing photos and life event stuff. Now, saying that out loud (so to speak), maybe Pixelfed would satisfy that too - no idea because I never used it's corpo cousin!
