I’m using the Test Flight beta app, curious on others’ overall experience with the platform so far. I never had an Instagram account so I’m not really sure yet what I even want from it. I’m just excited on all things Fediverse and I’m happy to be part of the growing numbers.

Any tips for content discovery? Seemed like that was the limiting factor off the bat, I like to start new platforms with the equivalent of a trending or all, didn’t seem to have that here.

Happy to take links for your favorite users that deserve a follow!

It's been a couple months since I tried it. There were too many dick pics for me. And, really, not enough pictures from creators I know. However, I did get to see a bunch of beautiful photography and a few pet pics that were good.

I chose a smaller instance when I joined. Haven't seen a single dick pick. But ended up blocking some hashtag to avoid Reddit NSFW content stealing.

I think the key to Pixelfed is following hashtags and being busy. I post the occasional pick and generally leave it at that. But it's a very nice platform.

I had a similar experience, also hard to find interesting things because searching tags didn't seem to work well. Maybe there isn't enough stuff uploaded yet.
