I'm leveraging Piefed for something incredibly neat.

You might notice that I'm tagging my photography posts with usernames. In fact, those are not usernames -- they are #Piefed communities.

And to get the full effect of what I'm doing, it's important to visit each individual community for the full aesthetic impact. So here's the links:

  1. @[email protected]: https://piefed.social/c/dustbloom
  2. @[email protected]: https://piefed.social/c/blue
  3. @[email protected]: https://piefed.social/c/lumoura
  4. @[email protected]: https://piefed.social/c/sizz
  5. @[email protected]: https://piefed.social/c/recordpics

More important is how I'm submitting content to those Piefed communities. From pixelfed.social and atomicpoet.org, I'm uploading photos from those two servers: pixelfed.social is my own artwork; atomicpoet.org is interesting art I stumble upon. After I upload a photo, I give it a description in a post, then tag it with the community "username" I want it to submit it towards.

Once the post is live, the originating server sends the post over to Piefed, and Piefed reposts it to the community I tag.

Voila! I now have submitted my post to an aesthetic and curated community, for which anyone can collaborate with me on.

Within a day, we got lots of activity here -- and several people are already interacting with photos posted there.

I've done this with my pixelfed/Mastodon to post on lemmy for easier image hosting. I still can't get over how cool it is that you can essentially "post to 'reddit' from your 'twitter' or 'instagram'"

the Fediverse is fuckin neat lol

I'm more experience with fediversing content to Lemmy but if all the photo oriented Lemmy community could fediverse its content to a proper photo-sharing platform it would be great. I will definitely do it my self.
Thanks for sharing!

Yeah sometime sharing pic between two instances doesn't work well.that the case in comment.

à l'époque où j'avais testé la fédiversion entre PixelFed et Lemmy, il y au moins un an et demi, les commentaires ne fédiversaient pas du tout. Si je voulais partager une photo de hibou sur [email protected], pas de soucis. Par contre, je n'ai aucun moyen de savoir s'il y avait la moindre réaction de la part des lemmings.

Just swapped to linux and flathub has an app for reposting reddit images to lemmy "reddy"

That's clever, does it work with Lemmy and/or Friendica?

It's great seeing intuitive uses of the software more regularly, thanks for sharing!
