        TL/DR; c/pics and c/photography are the only places I share images.


        Wow - that’s quite the compliment for a dude who just likes to post holiday images. I don’t post my pictures anywhere else, as I don’t believe in letting Meta and others commercialize my photos or feed their AI monsters with it.

        I like it here, I like the federation, I like that nobody restricts my upload size or compresses my images and I really like the vibe of the whole place and that I can just pay a buck a month to cover my costs instead of lots of ads and data scraping. Some months ago I thought c/pics is great but it could do with more content. So instead of complaining I started posting my own humble tries here, following the motto mediocre content is better than no content.

        I’ll take your question as encouragement and keep posting.

          Pixelfed is federated and the app is pretty good. It’s an Instagram alternative. May be nice to have a designated spot for all your work.

          At least for me, if I see something I like, I dig deeper to see what else they have.

          Regardless of how you post now or in the future, thanks for sharing.

            I tried that but found that it is still too unpopulated. The instances I found just had posts by the same five people. But I agree, the software is great, it just lacks an audience :)
