    I"ve been on Pixelfed for three days and, sadly, it’s pretty underwhelming.

    I’m going to give it a few weeks though and build up a feed.

        Old enough to remember when you could get to the “end of Twitter”, because you’d swiped through all the active posts of the day.

          You might be spending too much time on Lemmy if you’re still finding it lacking in content. Unless you’re referring to the amount of content in niche communities, in which case I’d agree.

      Remember, there is no algorithm pushing people towards you, look around, follow people, and see who they follow.

        My problem with decentralised social Media currently is that it’s entirely unencrypted and publically viewable.

        I don’t mind so much on services like Lemmy where it’s a bit of fun to make comments and post random things without it being directly linked to your identity (though I am aware the content is still likely being scraped by someone somewhere).

        I’d really love a Facebook/Instagram replacement, but end-to-end encrypted where only the people you’ve given permission to can view your content.

        No idea how this would be achieved, but PixelFed is pretty useless unless you’re posting publically.
