Happy to see!
I wondering what caused such jump.
Because news broke that Meta lobbied for the TikTok ban. So people are now boycotting Meta platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Since Pixelfed is an Instagram clone and recently launched the app, it has gained a ton of popularity. The timing of the app launch honestly couldn’t have been better, because it gave all of the fleeing Instagram users a nice convenient place to land.
They're making the landing even softer
They released an official all on the app stores
lol i search pixelfed and first result is Rednote, thanks Google play!
I think it's been out for a while.
Anyways, when I try to log into the main recommended server (where I already have an account), before I even get to the login page, it gives me this error
Which is a pretty funny thing for the official app to say about the official main instance 🤣
Instead I just installed the PWA from the browser. It works ok.
I just signed up after seeing an article saying links to the website are being blocked by Instagram (IIRC). I figured it must be worth looking into if they've gone that far
