Is there something specific about the Pixelfed interface that you prefer over the Mastodon interface?

@FediTips First thanks for taking interest in the matter! 😊

I would like to navigate with a #pixelfed-like interface without having to create a pixelfed account and start following a lot of accounts and all the hassle.

I don't see a reason for a separate account only for that, mastodon is already capable of posting images, sending DMs, etc.

if I could just have a different frontend for doing it, that would be amazing!

Pixelcat app does it, but the development stopped.

@FediTips sometimes I just want to navigate memes videos/images and friend's pictures in an interface that is more convenient for those formats on a mobile screen.

Also it is a lot better for posting images: #Pixeldroid, for instance, has some cool filters baked in the app. Just click the icon for 'new post' and it opens a camera with lots of cool options.

Ok, thanks for that, interesting!

If you were on iOS I'd suggest trying Impressia, not sure what else to suggest on Android if you've tried Pixeldroid 😦

I assume you've tried the official Pixelfed app?

@FediTips I haven't! I will try it and report back.

About iOS, I don't own any apple products (they are too expensive down here)

@FediTips Pixelfed app doesn't support Mastodon servers unfortunately :(
