Comment on Pixelfed Uptick in Monthly Active Users

  only in theory, Pixelfed doesn’t use groups, so Lemmy cannot access their content since Lemmy can’t follow users

    Ugh, yeah I totally mixed the two up. Thanks for the clarification.

    Im not sure piefed can as well? But it would be cool if it did.

      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.

      I like the opposite being able to fetch pictures from lemmy and piefed from pixelfed app
