A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I’d trust some random people running an activity pub server just as much as I’d trust Meta with my personal photos: I won’t.

I'm pretty sure Pixelfed wasn't intended to be a place to share your personal photos - it's meant for sharing photos you want to share with the public - could be a circle of friends or the whole world. Photos like pictures of your cats, food, landscapes etc. It's a place to share photos with friends, or a place to connect photographers with other photographers.
