Pixelfed users, the official Pixelfed app is now available from Google Play at:
➡️ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pixelfed
(It's also been submitted to the Apple app store and should be available there soon. An F-Droid version is also in the works.)
If you're wondering what Pixelfed is, it's like the Fediverse's alternative to Instagram. Pixelfed and Mastodon users can follow each other and interact because they're both part of the Fediverse. More info at:

@FediTips Is it okay to say that F-Droid already has a Pixelfed app named "Pixeldroid"?

@HeyLaiverd
Nothing wrong with Pixeldroid (I link to it from fedi.tips), I'm just trying to keep people up to date on the status of the official app as it has only just come out 🙂

@FediTips unfortunately the Mastadon server my account is on isn’t compatible. Any suggestions? Is it just a case of wait?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from stephenbooth@me.dm
@stephenbooth
I'd advise signing up directly for a Pixelfed account.
The "Mastodon sign-in" on Pixelfed isn't really a sign-in, it actually just creates a new Pixelfed account with some of the info from your Mastodon account.

@FediTips thank you. It turns out that even though you login with your email address you can’t use that as your username but if you try it doesn’t tell you, just bounces you back to the register form with no message (both in app and browser to the site). I’m in now as Stephenbooth.uk

Yeah, it may have bugs and things as it's the first version 😅

@FediTips good news for @dansup : The Google Play Store in France finds pixelfed now by search (last week it was still impossible).

@NatureMC
Yeah, I waited a bit before posting about the app for exactly this reason! It has taken a while for it to become available everywhere.

@FediTips @NatureMC I'll wait for the F-droid release then.

@FediTips can I log in using my mastodon account or does it need a new account?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from marion_grau@climatejustice.social
@marion_grau
You need an account on a Pixelfed server.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from FediTips@social.growyourown.services
@FediTips @marion_grau what's the difference same protocol right?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from Mik3y@kolektiva.social
@Mik3y @marion_grau
The ActivityPub protocol is how servers talk to each other. The software on the server is how it actually does stuff. Pixelfed software is made by totally different people to Mastodon software, and offers a slightly different set of features.
It's like Androids and iPhones both use 5G phone networks to communicate, but the software that runs on each phone is totally different.

@FediTips can we now just use our basic mastodon client for both?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from Mik3y@kolektiva.social
@Mik3y
You can use Mastodon apps with Pixelfed accounts, but some features will be missing and the layout on Mastodon apps won't be optimised for Pixelfed accounts.
