All those long nights working on backend scalability and performance improvements are about to be put to the test

I've been using Pixelfed for a few months now and it's super refreshing right now. Lots of interesting content without constant "influencers" promoting stuff or people trying to sell you things.

Same here, though an overwhelming amount of bird pictures I find lol

My posts are 99% my dog Loki and various plants and fungi that live on my property. So birds would be a step up from what I offer lol.

Couldn't find an android app. Is there one, or is my country not supported?

Use Pixel Droid. Download from F-Droid.

When I first visited the site on my android, it installed a Pixelfed app for me, just like it did for kbin. This might be something to do with me using the Chrome browser though? I can't say, I'm not super tech. But I've been using that just like an app.
