 Today is the 1 year anniversary of peerverse.space! That’s my very own @pixelfed server. It’s the Fediverse server I’ve managed for the longest time. Check out my bio: “I created this instance so that I could share what I love with complete and total freedom.” I wrote that a year ago, and it remains true even now. I was highly motivated to replace Instagram, and peerverse.space has done this in spades. Congrats to me! Long live peerverse.space! 7 comments
@atomicpoet @pixelfed nice! I was hoping for a paid hosted instance service (like masto.host), but maybe I should give it a look. Are you running on own machine or in cloud? 🤔  @atomicpoet @atomicpoet @pixelfed Sorry, I didn't phrase the q correctly. I am trying to understand your reasons what Pixelfed offers that Mastodon does not. I mentioned about me is to tell you I am unable to deduce by myself and need your input. @aswath Just as Mastodon is a federated alternative to Twitter, @pixelfed is a federated alternative to Instagram. Mastodon is a microblogging platform. @pixelfed is a photo gallery platform. Unlike Mastodon, @pixelfed lets you edit and apply filters to photos. You can also add custom licenses to your work and create your own portfolio too. Anyway, I highly recommend that you create accounts on other Fediverse alternatives so you can figure out what differentiates each of them. @atomicpoet @pixelfed Thanks. I do have an acct, but being a casual user, I didn't know abt filters & licensed portfolio. |

When I started peerverse.space, people questioned whether @pixelfed had the ability to attract interaction.
Well, it does.
I share my life, and I get more than enough responses.
But I’d still use peerverse.space even if it got none because likes and comments aren’t even the point.
The point is to share what I love without anyone else preventing me from doing so.
