Comment on My change to the Fediversa

I’ve been on Lemmy for a few months now and am really enjoying it. I think I’ll stay.
I’ve also been thinking about starting a Pixelfed account so I can share some photos I’ve taken recently. In my poking around the last few days, my first impression is that the bones are there, but it’s still rough around the edges. For example, clicking a hashtag in a photo caption to browse all photos with that hashtag is currently broken on the largest Pixelfed instance, and even on the smaller instances, browsing hashtags doesn’t appear to be federated, so there’s basically no way to discover photos of a certain hashtag or for others to discover my photos. Not that hash tags are the most important thing, but kind of a bummer from a discoverability standpoint. I may bite the bullet and sign up anyway, we’ll see.
