I run a community on my instance called Vegan Home Cooks which is ultimately just pictures of what people cooked that day. I was wondering if there is a way to leverage the new interest in Pixelfed to drive users to it and maybe bridge it some how. I haven’t really tried Pixelfed yet and was wondering what your experience has been with it

    The Pixelfed developer has been teasing Lemmy compatible groups for some years now. Apparently the code already exists, but for some reason it never gets merged.

    At one point last year it looked like it would finally be released soon and I even set up a Pixelfed instance on my server to test it, but then somehow they decided working on Loops and Sup. was more important.

    I got so annoyed by this lack of focus on basic functionality in general and a few other things regarding it that I deleted the instance again and do not plan to bother with anything this dev puts out again. Best of luck to them though, but I have better things to do with my time…
