If you love #Pixelfed as much as I do, you’ll love this Surf feed. It’s a great way to discover new photographers to follow there. Adding more all the time.

I've been asked the same questions a few times, so in response to people's questions about #pixelfed :
Q.Why bother to have a separate Pixelfed account when you already have a federated Mastodon account?
A. I use this primary account as a space to blow off steam, relax, direct the busyness in my mind (which usually comes out as a tidal wave of nonsense and silliness) and also as my beloved Fedi community. I really like the idea of there being a different space where I can be a bit more serious and don't feel the compulsion to turn everything into a joke. I'd like the space to post images I find poignant or beautiful without my usual brand of chaotic madness. And I find posting photos more of an *at* rather than a *with* engagement. 😊
Q. Why post your images online where they're available to be scraped?
A. It's a choice. Whilst I'm obviously not keen on scrapers, the only alternative seems to be to live in fear of them so not to post publicly. Which I am not going to do. I was told recently some of my posts are making their way to Bluesky without me. Whilst I choose not to engage in that platform I've set up a mirror account there so that people can at least reference who I am back at my Fedi home accounts.
Please feel free to ask any other questions and I will happily respond here. Vive la Fedi. 😊
Has anyone found a #pixelfed client for iOS that supports adding a location?
Not even the official app does 🫠
If you're wanting to join Pixelfed, you don't have to join pixelfed.social. There are other Pixelfed servers you can join instead, which will help spread the load and keep the network safe from being taken over.
For example here are three Pixelfed servers that have reliable people running them:
https://pixelfed.de
https://pixey.org
https://gram.social
There are even more listed on the official Pixelfed website at https://pixelfed.org/servers
To all of those people running, moderating, and maintaining #Mastodon, #Pixelfed, and other #Fediverse instances, no matter how small:
Thank you

For those who can no longer get behind Musk or Meta's new policies and feel like switching (e.g. from #Whatsapp to #Signal, from #Instagram to #Pixelfed or from #X to #Mastodon) I made you some graphics to use freely in communicating with your contacts.
Let’s lead by example 🙂

2025 #Introduction update:
Currently finishing up what has become a 14-year project of producing an 18-minute #FreeCulture #OpenMovie #SciFi #Animation pilot episode using #FreeSoftware authoring tools like #Blender3D #Kdenlive #Audacity and more.
Hopefully episode 2 will go faster!
I have a professional account where I talk mostly about that at
@TerryHancock@m.filmfreedom.net
net and a "Production Log" at
Also a #Pixelfed for the project at @lunatics
[1/3]
more #Pixelfed feature support: display post location and licenses if supplied and identify admin accounts
After @zuck changed #Meta’s content policy around offensive content, I noticed that the number of sites that @threads previously blocked have now been unblocked: https://www.threads.net/moderated_servers
Sites previously blocked for trolling 🧌, or promoting vulgar content (like Baraag whose existence is evil) are also now unblocked.
Curiously, all #Pixelfed instances are still “muted,” although #Fediverse handles will still show up on #Threads.
#pixelfed dev tip: to get the extra account and post fields you need to pass _pe=1 (see how their react native app does that in api.ts)
Oh !
L'app #Pixelfed est dispo pour mon smartphone que je croyais trop vieux (bientôt 8 ans) !
Et, autre surprise, ça a l'air de marcher bien mieux que l'interface web !
Created a new Pixelfed account for documenting my car Tanoshimi 楽しみ
Not enough car accounts on Pixelfed so I decided to contribute.
