For example on IG can only make a limited list of "favorites, but on Pixelfed I can make as many lists as I want with as many users as I want.
Perhaps the best feature is the lack of advertisements. When I go on IG, it’s literally 80% promoted BS that I don’t even follow.
Basically it’s an app designed and developed by users with features that we want, instead of an app owned by an evil corporation overtly exploiting users to the maximum extent possible while literally supporting genocide.
tell them to move to loops and pixelfed 😁
joinloops.org
for anyone else wondering
What are the benefits of both? Just that they are ethically better alternatives or doo they have features that are better/ more fun/etc?
they’re just fediverse versions - so you can host your own server, federate, no ads. otherwise the same
The fediverse has better features.
