Isn’t it just a Pixelfed instance but yellow?
possibly, but couldn’t that be said about instagram and tiktok too?
I was legit asking if it just was a Pixelfed instance or a fork of the project with new features.
Same Dev, different product (name and features) , codebase maybe similar/same.
It is created by the samw dev as pixelfed - wouldn’t be surprised if parts were reused to bootstrap quickly.
