Pixelfed has always been and will always be a platform that centers photos and creative artwork first and foremost.

It is deliberately not a microblogging platform, there are plenty of other microblogging platforms.

The criticism? I hear it. But we're not backing down from our vision.

Photo sharing first, foremost and forever.

@dansup that person’s criticism is going a bit too far imo. The protocol does not require every app to support every kind of content. I do wish there was a different object type used for photo-specific posts with a caption vs notes that happen to have media attachments. That would make it more obvious they are different types of content for all apps trying to display them.

@dansup Understandably, but isn't posed as an alternative for things like Instagram?

@dansup Why not just ask every time someone follows a non-photo first federated accout: "Do you want to see only photo posts or all posts?"
