Pixelfed: “groups” are coming and they will be compatible with Lemmy (who knows if they will also be compatible with Friendica)

@fediverse

Groups are not new to Pixelfed, we have webUI support but the feature wasn’t polished enough for use, until now ✨

:pixelfed: Groups will be compatible with #Lemmy, #Mbin, #Smithereen and other projects, and will resemble Facebook Groups in our official app!

Stay tuned, we’ll be shipping the updated Groups support in the app and webUI this weekend 🚀

    My understanding is that these groups are separate from the normal Pixelfed feed.

      Sure, but I still suspect that we’ll get a large influx of crafters and other artists that will be visible in Lemmy directly. Still very much excited

        I’ll really really appreciate this. I like having a few federated services to bounce between when I’m bored, but not a huge fan of actually using pixelfed since it’s more akin to social medias I never used. Having pixelfed content more easily accessible in Lemmy will make it a lot easier for me to interact with larger portion of the Fediverse
