I tried to use it, but honestly without an algorithm, it’s simply an empty page. And I don’t want to follow hashtags, since there’s usually too much semi-relevant garbage linked to those. So either I have a curated feed of only the people I follow, which gets boring, or I got nothing at all.
I kind of like the boring aspects of it. I scroll through the feed to the end of new stuff, and then i’m done for the day. It’s a bit like I treat emails. I do miss the inspo of the sewing and knitting community of instagram, though.

You can follow other people. My Pixelfed isn’t empty.
Yeah I follow all 3 people I know that use it. Hooray.
Oh, I follow people who have content I like. I’m using purely as a photographic content thing, which I thought it, and Instagram originally, were for.
