I love how the layout of the images is presented on the screen where you can just focus on the content, the scrolling is silky smooth and the best part is that you’re able to zoom in the images.

I’m definitely not ever going to miss using instagram, Pinterest and Imgur.

  • It requires re-auth every time you launch the app.
  • it is nothing more than a wrapper around a browser, designed to display one of the pixelated instances.

Both Impressia and the official Pixelfed app use the same techniques, and are poor excuses for apps. You would be equally as well served by using Safari. And you would have slightly more screen real estate, to boot.
