⚡ Profile Directory https://pixelfed.art/web/directory

⚡ Explore posts https://pixelfed.art/web/explore

We're pretty excited about https://pixelfed.art, and building a trusted community of art and artists on Pixelfed.

That being said, we have to shout out the OG art community on the fediverse, https://mastodon.art. They have built a rich and diverse community of artists and use their following to promote them. It's amazing.

We don't see them as competition, quite the opposite, they are family and we encourage all to find the platform that best fits

Embrace artists, wherever they may be ❤️

⚡ Introducing https://pixelfed.art - an official art focused Pixelfed instance

Registrations will open later this weekend! #pixelfed #pixelfedArt

Available soon via PR #3910

A new TestFlight build will be rolling out later this week with these updates, along with a new backend release (v0.11.5) to support in-app registration!
