Sad the dude behind it is kind of a Jerk. Was bullying a kid on Mastodon just a few weeks back and he got a bunch of backlash for it. Dude also got a bit of a Messiah complex, had to unfollow him 🥴
Yup. Been following Dan for a while and this has only gotten worse. Problem is, his attitude absolutely informs the way he manages and handles his projects. Even one glance at the issues page for Pixelfed shows that.
I think at some point, a lot of the Fedi will realise that toxicity and hopefully we’ll see fork efforts like Pixelfed-glitch get more support. Because Pixelfed and Loops are good ideas, executed by someone who really doesn’t have the ability to properly execute on them. I don’t anticipate that these current user numbers will stay given the current, quite broken, state of Pixelfed.
Pixelfed is great, but it needs developing…some pics don’t load, comments don’t comment, likes don’t like. I’d love it if this got fixed, dark mode got added, more users and other bits and pieces. Are you saying that this won’t happen then?
Please let’s not start the personal attacks on the developers. Lemmy was a shit storm of that and it really sucked when I joined. Take the gift of the software and move on.

Also a shame to find out he’s a prick.

Yeah there is something very ironic about commenting this on Lemmy
I mean no shade at you, like morality is subjective. But Imma still do me, Im greedy like that when it comes to what I expect out of people.
But people love the drama, it is provocative, it drives engagement
