   Instagram alternative #PixelFed's flagship instance pixelfed.social is now permanently closed to new registrations in order to prevent centralisation.

   You can still sign up to PixelFed, just pick another instance.

   Here are some we'd recommend:

   https://pix.diaspodon.fr
   https://pxlfd.me/
   https://pixelfed.de/

   You can find more at:
   https://fediverse.network/pixelfed

   PixelFed instances federate with the Fediverse, so you can follow PF accounts from Mastodon etc.

     You can also search for PixelFed post URLs if you want to interact with them on Mastodon.
