@Yoz I've been on Pixelfed for about a year; highly enjoyable. All the good of instagram without the celebrities and "influencers". I also follow my Pixelfed account from my mastodon so I can boost to all of my mastodon followers as well.
@meggied90 I'm not a photographer in any sense; I literally post the same things I would have posted on instagram - restaurants, things I see on daily walks, family photos. I follow people who post their exercises/run routes, dogs, whatever. I got the same initial vibe you mentioned, but I assure you, it has been an extremely welcoming community to me.
YSK: Pixelfed replaced Instagram for me, the same way Lemmy replaced reddit.
Guys check out pixelfed. Its better than Instagram.Same concept of fediverse as Lemmy and Mastodon....
