@Murdoc @alexisbushnell #Pixelfed is the equivalent of the original #Instagram. Instagram used to be a platform for photography enthusiasts.

After the takeover by #Facebook, the platform became increasingly commercialized. More and more #advertising moved onto the platform. Algorithms, which were trained on the basis of the posts viewed, determined what was displayed in our timeline.

Pixelfed wants to pick up on the original spirit of Instagram and focus on #photography, but also address modern developments such as #stories in the form of videos. 📸

Algorithms that analyze user behavior are completely dispensed with. Protecting user #privacy is an important feature of Pixelfed. 🛡️

In turn, their official handle links to their #Threads account.

Someone in the WordPress foundation needs to contact #Meta & have their account verified & activate #ActivityPub on their Threads account.

They also need to install the ActivityPub plugin so we can follow updates from the #Fediverse.
