My favorite is PixelFed. I’m an artist, so Instagram was important for me, but for a few years now it’s absolutely terrible (no reach at all with their special algorithms). PixelFed fixes all that, it replicates the feeling of IG as it was 8-10 years ago: chronological feed, tag-based, no extraneous features. I’m really enjoying it, as I can finally grow again my followship as an artist: https://pixelfed.org/
Do you have any suggestions as to how to find people on there? I have it installed and am trying it out, but I’m running into a lot of the same problems I was having on Mastodon; it seems difficult to discover engaging content.
You can follow me if you like book illustration art: https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli Another way, is to search for tags. For example, if you like fishing, you search for that tag, and then you find ppl that post interesting fishing stuff.

How can I find you there ? I joined not long ago and I lack interesting people to follow. Also, curious to see your work :)
Thank you!!! Here is my art account: https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli
Thanks, found you. Nice work you’re doing. I’m new so I don’t have much to feature, but I hope you’ll like my photos :)
Is there interoperability between pixel fed and lemmy at all? I’m so sick of Instagram, this piques my interest
There is interoperability between PixelFed and Mastodon for sure. I often get a lot of likes from there, rather than PixelFed itself.
