Swept up by all the excitement over the sudden growth of, and interest in, #Pixelfed, yesterday I opened a publicly accessible Pixelfed server, https://gr8.pics
If you are interested in a new home for posting photos, one that is decentralized and connected to all ActivityPub servers, come on over and kick the tires. It must be good if Zuckerberg is afraid of it, and blocking Pixelfed links, right?
As far as I know, Pixelfed doesn't do server relaying, so photographs and short videos come in only through follow relationships, which is why I'd like to get people to start posting photos and following people elsewhere in the Fediverse who post pictures. Currently, the local and global timelines are limited. Over time, it will become filled with photos and short videos as more people make it their photo home.
Although I haven't tried it yet, it's supposed to import your #Instagram account.
The server is less than a day old. It may have problems I haven't found out about. But, if you're in a pioneering mood and would like a decentralized home for your photos and short videos, well, maybe worth checking this out. The server is small, but seems to be handling what there is effortlessly, but I'll scale it up if I see stress.
Proud to add a Pixelfed server, https://gr8.pics, to my other decentralized servers to support decentralized media:
