        Maybe I am just noob at using it. But calling pixelfed a substitution to instagram, is maybe just a little reach..
        Pixelfed I found buggy, slow and dead community wise?
        Anyone to prove me wrong?

          The Lemmy devs? I'd suggest to read what they actually write. They are good guys.

          I also don't think it matters. For example, I don't really like the behavior of the Duckstation dev. It's a PS1 emulator. But I don't have to agree with him in order to use it.

                Piefeds default is images and text are bigger, like a card style while lemmys default is like old reddit and compact.

                They've got their complaints in multiple comments in this thread but it basically boils down to wanting reddit but not being on reddit. Which also gets to a lot of other complaints about people moving because it's different than current reddit

                  I use compact on Piefed. It's a click in settings. I don't think this really means anything.

                    I understand, but most of us are here from the efforts of all those who built Lemmy and it was deliberately left off here as an alternative

                      Loops is mid. The community is pretty inactive, and the iOS build is quite buggy and lacking.

                        I've never used it but apparently people like it, but it's got some pretty interesting development choices, I'll just leave it like that.

                            Lol, posting Piefed as an alternative to reddit to Lemmy...

                            Also, PeerTube is super obtuse to get an account and has almost no reach. You almost have to personally know someone who has a server or host your own. There's a reason why video hosting has gotten so corporatized: it's expensive. That said, almost "no one" used Mastodon for nearly a decade and it's finally starting to take off, so maybe it just needs another decade or two.

                              What's a good peertube instance that federates with a lot? I tried tldvids but its got like 2 regular uploaders and i cant find most channels I search for.

                                It's honestly bonkers to have a community hosted on Lemmy this hostile to Lemmy as software and the developers.

                                Is this bait? There is hardly any hostility here towards the software and the Lemmy devs want to push the world towards being an authoritarian hellscape. If anything they dont get enough shit.

                                  It only released onto the AppStore 3 days ago. I’d argue they deserve some time to get it right.

                                    Demonstrably true. Try saying anything contrary to a tankie talking point on .ml and see how long before you get banned. May I suggest “Russia was wrong for invading Ukraine” for starters, or “China committed unjustifiable atrocities against peaceful protestors”.

                                        It's like Lemmy, but it can interact with Mastodon and has some other features that Lemmy lacks. It's pretty cool, only reason I don't use more often it is I'm happy on my instance otherwise I would swap in an instant.
