YSK: Pixelfed replaced Instagram for me, the same way Lemmy replaced reddit. - Lemmy.world

Guys check out pixelfed. Its better than Instagram.Same concept of fediverse as Lemmy and Mastodon. Website: https://pixelfed.org [https://pixelfed.org] Servers: https://pixelfed.org/servers [https://pixelfed.org/servers] Even has a android client called pixeldroid on fdroid.

Instagram also has a full account data export feature, and Pixelfed can import from that data. When I used it earlier this week it seemed to ignore my latest posts, which use the webp format instead of jpg or png. But since the import is processed server-side once they resolve that I should be able to import from the same zip and get just those missing posts.
