Having new contributors is an amazing feeling 😁
For the past 7 years, @dansup has been building Pixelfed himself, and out of his own pocket.
Now, we have multiple new contributors to our mobile app, backend and frontend!
2025 is going to be a great year for the fediverse and social web ❤️
We've received more offers to acquire our platform/assets.
We belong to the people.
Our Kickstarter is launching soon, help us prove that we, the people, can build healthy and vibrant communities, without being controlled by vested interests who don't share our values.
Recent events have proved how vital these open and federated platforms are, help us continue building for the people.

Instagram had its decade.
Pixelfed is what's next.
Not because of one person.
Because of all of us.
The future doesn't have to be billionaire-owned.
The future belongs to us.

While it's not open source or federated yet, we are working on that.
If you are on Loops.video, you will be able to migrate your full account to another Loops server without losing your followers, videos, comments or likes!
It's pretty amazing what is possible with open platforms and protocols ✨

We know how it can look when a flagship instance sees such rapid growth, but at the same time, we are bringing hundreds of thousands of new users to the fediverse.
We believe this compromise is essential if we want the fediverse and social web to flourish.
People need real alternatives, that are simple and easy to use.
And we're building them. ✨
