Plain old pictures are out; content is in.
A photo is content. 🤨

Only problem with that: nobody uses it. None in my target userbase.

Buy they do have Internet, don’t they? It’s just a website. You share your photos, they can click on the link to see them. And even then: Pixelfed can be added to your home screen as a PWA. 🤷♂️

I have a simple request to anyone at Meta who is listening: please, just give us our photo sharing app back. lol. Wake up, they’re not interested in what users want, they’re interested in selling your data and targeting ads.

I never really changed the way I use it. I just post pictures and watch pictures. I’ve never viewed stories or tried any of those other features. It’s the pictures I’m there for.
