  Pixelfed kind of sucks though and the creator’s a dick.

    It’s fine to me. I haven’t seen anything bad from the creator. He’s a perfectionist, but that just means I have to wait for features, which is fine.

      I wanted to like it. I’ve tried using it a few times over the last few years but the UI always seemed janky and underdeveloped, both in first- and third-party apps . The official app doesn’t seem to provide any benefit for posting images over posting to mastodon. The android app used to have an image editor but that had been removed the last time I tried it. I don’t really get what the point of it is.
