Looks excellent. I have been waiting for that to be finally released. They have been teasing it for at least 2 years now.

I guess I'll try setting up a Pixelfed instance next month ๐Ÿค”

Why?

[โ€“] sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Because while I find Lemmy great, it's not for everyone. Some of that is the people, some of that the form factor. With PixelFed groups, we'll have a new influx of users and groups to interact with. What's not exciting about that?

I mean it's the same groups and the same people. The only thing new is the interface. Which is designed for sharing photos.
