Pixelfed is a great picture sharing app that is currently experiencing explosive growth. People are saying, it reminds them of the early days of Instagram before it was enshittified.

But growth like this costs money, and here there are no deep pocket VCs writing big checks. Public social media depends on community support:

"Another thing that's missing from Pixelfed: ads and any kind of tracking. The developer team promises those "features" are never coming. In a Mastodon post, developer Daniel Supernault said "Pixelfed is a lot of things, but one thing it is not, is an opportunity for VC or others to ruin the vibe," adding that he turned down VC funding and plans to never add ads. "Pixelfed is for the people, period." "

Think about supporting #PublicSocialMedia.
