  • Sean is really going the wrong way integrating that with pixelfed as the reels counterpart would have been better as the pixelfed servers aldready support big enough file size for a 30s or a minute videos . Like lemmy definetly has got a chance coming out on top against reddit but pixelfed will never overtake or be on par with insta if it goes this way people need groups and calling features etc. because insta is mainly about being a social platform rather than sharing pics my guess would be even tho pixelfed aspires to be insta which is pretty clear it does based on its ui ( don’t argue its supposed to be a place for nerds to post pics because atleast the dev doesn’t see it that way and is often advertised as a fediverse instagram alt ) but it’ll stay as only a place for nerds to post their pics and eventually be unactive and die out .

    The devs on fediverse seem unable to grasp the concept that it is not big enough for a thousand projects to spring up suddenly and will do more harm stretching the aldready thin userbase than good . Maybe try making the aldready good softwares than reinventing the wheel ? Its not like we can’t fork it in the future no need to have a couple of alternatives built for just incase scenario or anything . But still i hope it works out well enough for the devs and gets some of Americans as tiktok is banned there no i think and maybe there is a market for alternative .
