A new Instagram-like app, UpScrolled, seems like the wrong direction:

❌ not Free Software
❌ app-only, no web interface
❌ no self-hosting
❌ not federated
❌ seeking advertisers

Meanwhile we already have Pixelfed:

✅ Free Software license: AGPL3+
✅ web interface and a mobile app
✅ self-hosting or find an existing server
✅ part of the fediverse

We don't need a new proprietary walled garden! Grow the fediverse!
