The reports are coming in from all over the Fediverse. While pixelfed.social is understandably working to accommodate the huge influx of new users, other Pixelfed instances are operating just like normal.
Users report these Pixelfed servers are running just fine:
https://gram.social/
https://pixey.org/
https://pixelfed.au/
https://pixelfed.art/
https://pixelfed.de/
https://pixel.infosec.exchange/
Don't worry about being on the main insrance, all Pixelfed servers talk to each other.

@theaardvark @TekellJ @mastodonmigration my instance https://pixtagram.social is running well, and will be open for registrations from time to time to keep it from getting bombarded.

@mastodonmigration I've been thinking about moving my account off of Pixelfed.social, had it there for over a year and @dansup has been doing a great job with everything, I have no complaints, I just can't decide if this would be a help to him or extra server load that he doesn't need right now.

@bllgvn @mastodonmigration @dansup the migration seems to be broken. I tried doing it when moving over from pixelfed.social to Pixey, I followed the steps, and my old account lost all followers and my new one didn't get them.

@bllgvn @mastodonmigration @dansup @noodlejetski this is also happening to me but then maybe it takes 48+ hours?

@AllysonShaw @bllgvn @mastodonmigration @dansup I don't see any reason why it should, the same process on Mastodon is nearly instantaneous

@mastodonmigration @noodlejetski @bllgvn @dansup update! The migration is complete but it did take 24 hours. Also I’m not sure what an alias or redirect looks like on Pixelfed-now it just looks like I have two Pixelfed accounts.

Where is this current exodus coming from?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from Phosphenes@glasgow.social
@Phosphenes @mastodonmigration I would guess from the TikTok users concerned over the impending ban of the app in the USA. Time will tell if the law banning it stands or is overturned as well as whether it will be enforced or ignored if the ban stands.

I thought Pixelfed was just a photo sharing network. Can it replace any other functions of Facebook?

Pixelfed is more of an Instagram alternative.

@Phosphenes @mastodonmigration I think it's a case of the "Streisand effect", where Instagram blocking links to Pixelfed had the unintended consequence of bringing attention to and making people curious about Pixelfed!

While all our privatized media are being taken over by tyrants, I got curious today about federated video and found PeerTube.
Does anyone know of a PeerTube instance that takes registrations to be a creator? I have searched many and found none. 😕
My content is pretty anodyne: https://glasgow.social/@Phosphenes/111205180793515214

DONATE! Donate big. This is a bloom of freedom, empowerment, and rejection of corporate control, surveillance, manipulation and cost.
Pixelfed servers are holding on, help appreciated.

@mastodonmigration I can confirm pixelfed.au works well.

@mastodonmigration It’s also important to check a server’s rules and ensure that they align with your values and that you are in a position to commit to them. Some servers forbid content that is illegal in the United States — and while this makes perfect sense for US-based servers, as a Canadian it’s not something I can commit to at this time.

@mastodonmigration so tiktok dying people are looking at pixelfed as the new solution?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from sri@mastodon.social
@sri
Not exactly. A few days ago Facebook made the mistake of blocking links to Pixelfed. This generated a 'Steisand Effect' response. This has also all exacerbated by a backlash against Mark Zuckerberg for his recent actions regarding moderation on Meta.

@mastodonmigration Those are not the concerns people have. The concerns they have are whether these lesser instances have any staying power, or are nerd hobby projects running off a raspberry pi they pulled from a junk drawer. They're worried about leaving to switch identities and whether that is complicated. They worried about migrating and losing all their pictures again. These are not small issues. They're among the biggest and federated services don't have many good answers right now.

@Infoseepage
pixey.org and gram.social are run by @stux who also administers the mstdn.social. pixelfed.infosec is administered by @jerry. Those are good bets of these are your concerns.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from mastodonmigration@mastodon.online
@mastodonmigration @stux @jerry I'm an early pixelfed user, so I'm already locked in to using pixelfed.social, similar to my being a longtime mastodon.social user. I get the pluses and minuses to being on a mega-instance.
The concerns I voiced are real concerns for everyday users, and reduce the appeal of federated services relative to other offerings. If the fediverse wants to grow and be a serious competitor to Facebook and friends, they need to be addressed in a more user-friendly manner.

@mastodonmigration I was totally surprised yesterday to find that my pixelfed.de login still works. I normally post travel photos to my own web site, but might as well start using the #pixelfed site as well.
