I’ve signed up on Pixelfed to give it a whirl — come say hi!
The first thing you see is the server list, a la Mastodon, so I don’t think it will take off with normies. It’s also really struggling with an influx of new users so it’s quite slow to navigate around. But still, we’ll see if it sticks for me.

From everything I’ve read elsewhere, the refurbished prices are phenomenal value. The Hardware I don’t know if I lucked out with mine, but it’s in perfect condition. No scratches or scuffs, not even on the included carrying case. Speaking of the case — it’s nice, even if the charger nook on the back seems designed by someone who’s never seen an Irish plug in their life.
