Editing to let people know that I will be blocking anyone who feels the need to tell me why this graph is inaccurate. I truly don't care, but feel free to chime in with your useless take and land a spot on my block list! ๐

Yes, it's the most confusing part, if you want to discover Pixelfed accounts from other servers, you have to go to another server's home page, then click on "Explore" which will show you popular posts by that server's users. I have done this and now I follow a bunch of accounts from other servers, but the process is very convoluted and the average user would not bother I guess.
The web version of Pixelfed does have a "Global Feed" page but that's 99% Mastodon posts because the "Global Feed" is actually global relative to the whole Fediverse.
Yes, I think for new users that is very confusing. I find that somewhat confusing and I think I have an idea what's going on.
Yeah, fediverse platforms aren't going to seriously compete against the big corporate ones until the user experience is as simple.
Exactly. I agree. It needs to be simplified. As easy as creating an account.
