Does pixelfed have an app or is it a browser only thing?
There's a few third-party apps, with Pixeldroid being the most popular, and their official app is in beta.
Awesome, thank you so much. I want to leave Instagram and just found out about this one the other day.
The official app, despite being in beta is really nice. @dansup has done an amazing job of it in a short amount of time.
It was nice. There was no way to never show those NSFW account in the public feed. There wasn't even a button to block those accounts. I even checked my settings on the site and found nothing
@donut4ever @igalmarino Last I heard, @dansup and the @pixelfed crew were working to get the Pixelfed app into the Android and iOS app stores. There's currently a version of the app that you can sideload if you so desire...
I just installed their official app. It's in beta, but it is so lovely. Reminds me of Instagram when it was first launched. I'm sticking with the official app. Learned my lesson from lemmy. Too many apps is no good. Lol
@donut4ever @ajsadauskas yup, really like the pixelfed app. As for lemmy, I'd settle for one working app. I was using connect, then it updated. Lemmy doesn't play nice with old phones.
PixelDroid for Android. It's available on F-Droid too
Thank you. I found it, but I think I'll just use the official app for now and see. I like the vibe on pixelfed. It's pretty much the old Instagram.
