PixelFed

Overview

PixelFed is an open‑source, federated photo sharing social network built on the ActivityPub protocol. It enables users to post and browse photos, follow other users, like and comment on posts, and interact across federated instances without centralized control. PixelFed prioritizes privacy, has no ads, and lets communities host their own instances while still participating in the wider fediverse.
