I almost never look at the app store but I popped in today in the wake of the TikTok ban and was shocked to see this.

    Can somebody help an old out here. I want to look at pictures of art people make and stuff like that. I really don’t care about some randos selfies. Right now, there are image heavy lemmy groups that fit that bill. Should I go check out Pixelfed for more content? Or is it a fediverse Instagram thing only?

    Lemmy really works for me in the sense of following topics instead of people.

      Pixelfed doesn’t have any sort of “communities” or other way to curate content (not even hashtags) so you’re just going to see whatever people are posting.

      As another commentor mentioned, you can join a specific instance intended for a specific type of post, but there’s nothing stopping someone from joining there and posting selfies other than good will.
