Pixelfed’s time to shine. We all succeed with this one!
Hopefully the whisperings of Lemmy gets into the ears of folks.
Waiting for the resurrection of Reddit VS Instagram meme war as Lemmy VS Pixelfed
The cool thing is that it's not like versus, it's like co-op!
It's a great opportunity for #pixelfed to add #group support, so those sharing their videos can share it directly to a community/magazine reaching to a wider audience. Same for #loops. Obviously, not at the moment, where everyone is trying to keep things up and running. @[email protected]
Pixelfed still has to fix really basic stuff first. Like pulling changed profile pics from remote instances, federating properly and consistently, not having three different UIs from different stages of development at once, making sure settings do what they’re supposed to do…
and free-text search, not just on hashtags and usernames.
They're close to releasing it... for the last 9 months.
Sad the dude behind it is kind of a Jerk. Was bullying a kid on Mastodon just a few weeks back and he got a bunch of backlash for it. Dude also got a bit of a Messiah complex, had to unfollow him 🥴
Please let’s not start the personal attacks on the developers. Lemmy was a shit storm of that and it really sucked when I joined. Take the gift of the software and move on.
Yeah there is something very ironic about commenting this on Lemmy
I mean no shade at you, like morality is subjective. But Imma still do me, Im greedy like that when it comes to what I expect out of people.
But people love the drama, it is provocative, it drives engagement
I mean this is just dismissive. Taking a stand against bullying teenagers is not a provocative take. Jeez
Yup. Been following Dan for a while and this has only gotten worse. Problem is, his attitude absolutely informs the way he manages and handles his projects. Even one glance at the issues page for Pixelfed shows that.
I think at some point, a lot of the Fedi will realise that toxicity and hopefully we’ll see fork efforts like Pixelfed-glitch get more support. Because Pixelfed and Loops are good ideas, executed by someone who really doesn’t have the ability to properly execute on them. I don’t anticipate that these current user numbers will stay given the current, quite broken, state of Pixelfed.
