Pixelfed has been making incredible strides over the past few years, and has begun developing a suite of different platforms and services for the #Fediverse. After just one day on Kickstarter, they’ve already smashed their campaign goal.
But they still need your help!

I actually wrote a bit about this in the past: https://deadsuperhero.com/2021/10/peertubes-content-wasteland/
TL;DR - Yeah, it’s possible to fill up your local catalogue of remote entries really quickly through instance following. The problem is not a shortage of instances or videos, the problem is that cutting it down to the good stuff requires a lot of active curation. It’s very easy to just open the firehose and drown in a never-ending stream of junk.
Yeah, I’d say it might have more to do with the fact that making texts posts is a lot easier than making videos. It’s still possible to introduce too much noise, regardless of medium, but there’s a lot less friction when the medium is simpler and doesn’t require much work.
