    It’s a ghost town (much like this comment thread). ;)

    Being an early adopter can be boring sometimes.

    Yes I’m on it, and don’t post much, I guess to dip my toe to check it out but while I take photos for myself I don’t look at the photos of others. I was never on IG at all so …

    Sign up on mobile was absolute trash, completely buggered and I had to sign up over the web in the end (which then told me my username was taken FFS). A big put off.

    Love what the dev is doing, but he needs to get the basics right before plowing ahead with features.

    I like it but I wish I can migrate my account. When I moved to a friend’s instance I had to manually upload all the photos and descriptions . I wish it was like peertube where I could just sync .

      “Fed” pertains to federation so it kinda works. Compare that to Lemmy or Mastodon that have no relation at all to the fediverse (AFAIK).

        I’m a huge fan of the fediverse and I didn’t even get the fed reference haha. A typical user surely wouldn’t get it either!

    I have posted some pictures I’ve taken from hikes, and check in now and then when I feel like posting something or looking at pictures.

    My experience is very different from what other people here seem to report. I am just posting into the void, I have posted 11 pictures to date, and I never linked the account to anything or told anyone about it. Still I have more than 50 followers, only from people who stumbled over my content and decided to follow. I’m only following half of that number, so it’s not a politeness thing.

    I’ve also gotten a few comments, though mostly people just click like and/or boost. It seems every time I post something I gain at least a follower or two.

    So overall I’m pretty impressed by PixlFed. If you have something to share it’s a good platform to do so. And there’s nice landscape photography on there, at least.
