I’m hearing that pixelfed is stepping up to be the new Instagram, but without adverts and unlimited reach. After the latest “innovations” that force you to stop scrolling to look at an ad, I’m keen to show Meta a clean pair of heels.

Anyone made the move?

Definitely worth looking into, I think.

I'll give it a try. Did you choose the first option : https://pixelfed.social?

I haven’t done anything yet, as I’m reading up on which servers allow you to import a large Instagram account.

Which server did you choose?

I try to login and can make my mind up which one to choose

The problem is, the standard server is locked for imports as it’s been crashing under the load. Trying to find a German one. Which is open for imports.

Bluesky is now developing a new app, Flashes. It will probably not be available until February, but it should be a great replacement for Instagram.

I haven’t chosen yet.

I would love to find a good IG alternative. I’d happily pay a few bucks a month for an ad-free IG and something that’s like og twitter (which seems to be this for now).
