@pixelfed if pixelfed joins the diabolic data buisenes, then pixelfed would be welcome
@pixelfed I heard Instagram are mass purging inactive account.
Lots of influencer are repoeting thousands of lost followers.
@pixelfed i had uninstall instagram and started uses pixelfed as a healthier alternatve
@pixelfed they're sore losers
@pixelfed LoL. They aren't even hiding behind a mask anymore.
Just wait until they get a private army like Russian companies!
Let me confirm your suspicion.
Yes, it was suspended exactly for the reason you believe it was.
We've been cracking down on service providers that provide products or services in direct competition with our own.
Even if we restore it at a later time, expect to be more easily scrutinized.

@pixelfed maybe time to actually work and push updates to pixelfed ? :)
@pixelfed I have had several test accounts without any posts and all of those were closed in a month or so. Banning dormant accounts is one way instagram is trying to prevent all kind of scraping and bot accounts from emerging on their platform. So I would say you would have been better off by posting something
@pixelfed Maybe they need room on their servers for their shitty AI.
@pixelfed In a way I see that as a good thing. Obviously the work being done by Pixelfed and other federated platforms is being viewed as a threat to the monoliths that run these big tech platforms. Keep up the fight, you'll have my support as long as you do
@pixelfed They must be super scared of you as a competitor.
@pixelfed This is exactly how a good phish would appear.
Maybe it's not allowed not to post? 🤔
