This app could potentially supplant Tik Tok overtime. As Tik Tok’s censorship following it’s acquisition by US investors such as Oracle, Silver Lake, and Abu Dhabi-based MGX, and UpScrolled already having questionable ethics, this may be the path forward.
Isn’t piefed open source? You might be right, but we’ll see, yeah?
Edit: What would be the benefit of waiting to become open source? Piefed seems to be a great platform, that’s why I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt. But again, I could be wrong and he’s super greedy.
Pixelfed (Instagram-like) not PieFed (Reddit-like)
The benefit is less distractions and pointless organization for a project in the early stages
Open sourcing things is a pain in the ass. It’s common to get the core project working before doing so
Pixelfed ≠ Piefed
but it is open source
edit: Looks like Loops is open-source as well :

You’re right, I thought it was the Piefed guy.
