I don’t even use Pixelfed, but its growth is kind of interesting to me:

The ebb lasted a lot longer than I was rooting for. But now it seems to have caught a recent uptick. Still slight in terms of its maximum peak, but respectable: 47K Monthly Active Users. (about the same as the total number of MAUs on Lemmy!)

Furthermore, it’s also reflected in the half-year Active Users, meaning it’s not just people who signed in a couple months ago who are now checking back in – looks like brand-new active participants.

Any idea what caused this? Another “migrate” campaign? Did Instagram do something stupid again? Or is it just a data glitch?

      I just tried and PieFed cannot access PixelFed posts. Mbin can do it.

      Personally I don’t mind the separation between some platforms, I’m fine with having 2 accounts. The UX is designed to work with the style of content anyways. But I know a lot of people want everything to work with everything.

        Is it possible that because pixelfed is more like microblogs with focus on photos mbin can access them? Because mbin always has microblogs support.
