Folks Pixelfed is getting slammed.
Since Meta started blocking links to #Pixelfed it seems the world has discovered this wonderful public Instagram alternative picture sharing social media application (see Striesand effect).
But things that are public, rely on us to fund them. @dansup does not have a bunch of VC billionaires writing big checks for more server capacity.
If you can spare a few dollars to support public social media, right now is the time to do so!
Support Pixelfed
We're an open source project that is funded by people like you!

@mastodonmigration @dansup And maybe pick an instance other than the main one. I've mentioned gram.social before.

From looking at the funding options seems like the simplest way to send #Pixelfed a one-time donation is this link:
Would also encourage becoming a recurring subscriber, using any preferred method, but now is the time to rush them some money to tackle this Instagram migration wave.
Good luck Dan! We are pulling for you!

@mastodonmigration @dansup Just added monthly support for Pixelfed.
-
@mastodonmigration @dansup this is also likely a surge of people migrating from TikToks imminent ban. If you aren't following in TikTok, there is some sentiment of never Meta, bluesky not being quite the right fit, Neptune as an interesting future (creator payment friendly afaic), and Red Note as a protest move
-
@dansup and Pixelfed also have an imminent TikTiok alternative called Loops.
Loops by Pixelfed
Loops, explore and share short videos on the fediverse. Available soon!
(loops.video)
Seriously, this guy is a giant killer. Send him some support.

Meta now admits it was blocking links to Pixelfed...
Apparently, it was a 'mistake'...
Meta admits it deleted links to decentralized Instagram competitor Pixelfed
Meta accidentally deleted links to Instagram-competitor Pixelfed on Facebook, which is at least a little suspicious coming after Meta's recent moderation changes.

The tech bros of this age are just reincarnations of the railroad barons of the (also horribly corrupt) gilded age.

@mastodonmigration @dansup The mistake was people having anything to do with meta.

In this case. It is just putting a link to pixelfed in a FB post, but understand what you are driving at.

@mastodonmigration This isn't the first time lol
-
@dansup @mastodonmigration it is to their advantage to block any links to #PixelFed #Mastodon or really anything on the #Fediverse
I am very surprised they opened #Threads to #TheFediverse

@mastodonmigration @dansup Donated!

Sent some money. I don't know that I want to set up another social media account just yet, but this is super awesome work and I totally want to support it.
The fact that Zuck is so scared says you're on the right track.

@mastodonmigration @msbw @dansup one of my pixelfed post tests didn't get removed but others did. Comment links too. It definitely caused discussions about pixelfed on Facebook.
