Pixelfed has always been and will always be a platform that centers photos and creative artwork first and foremost.
It is deliberately not a microblogging platform, there are plenty of other microblogging platforms.
The criticism? I hear it. But we're not backing down from our vision.
Photo sharing first, foremost and forever.

in reply to dansup • • •Yeah, but keep in mind that first is not only ;)
I’m confident you’ll do a good job in including text message to Pixelfed.

in reply to dansup • • •makes complete sense. We've seen from Google that doing everything will lead to the death of platforms.
Doing one thing and one thing only perfectly with pure focus is the way imo

in reply to dansup • • •: I’ve heard all the replies to my blog post. I start to understand better where our vision differ. For me, the Fediverse was about interoperability of people. To many other, the Fediverse is about enjoying some kind of media.
The fact that you, Pixelfed creator, post this from a Mastodon account is the saddest thing about the state of the Fediverse to me. But seems normal for lot of people who grew with lot of accounts everywhere.
I don’t like it but I hear the rationale behind it.

in reply to dansup • • •But what do you say to this problems?
github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/i…
If someone tags you, with picture or not, you must be able to see it.
That's a Fediverse promise.
This should not be dropped. Ever.
Or what do you think about it?
[Federation]: Mentions of a pixelfed account on mastodon WITHOUT a picture are not federated to Pixelfed accounts

in reply to dansup • • •I actually use Pixelfed as the platform to upload my Game Boy Camera photos.
However, I still have to rely on more commercial platforms to reach a wider audience. But Pixelfed is always my priority.
