     @sun @kaia @volpeon Kaia is probably referring to this post: https://mastodon.social/@dansup/113887449806026585
     
     The gist of it is that the Pixelfed add will now by default assume you want to register on the main Pixelfed server and logging in to a different server will require the user to go through a menu.
     
     Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't planning to quit fedi. As most as he can anyway. Initially Loops source code wasn't public at all while already deployed and advertised and the current way he handles the development resembles closed-source development a lot. (1)
     The FediDB source wasn't updated in years and the code running the website is different. (2,3)
