I honestly forgot Threads even existed.

I'm constantly reminded of it by instagram when they insert the most unhinged incendiary thread posts on my feed. Quite a way to advertise. "Hey, do you like to be angry and argue with strangers? Come join Threads!"

If anything, this seems like a good reason to leave Instagram.

I just got into photography and wanted to post some stuff to Flickr. Any idea how pixelfed is for that? I really like being able to sort by camera or lens and seeing the exact settings used right under the pic

I'd say Pixelfed is great for photography; unlike Instagram its userbase is actually photography-focused, but unfortunately you cannot count on people to include all details in their posts.

[–] SeducingCamel@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll probably just go for that, if it's already photography focused that sounds great

Good luck! Remember to hashtag your posts generously at first, because there's no algorithm!

Hell yeah just made an account

Considering a significant portion of their userbase adores ragebait, it probably works out quite well for them lol
