Pixelfed embraces open source, every aspect of our platform is licensed under the AGPL.
Beyond that, we are working together with a Pixelfed Fork (aka Pixelfed-Glitch) to better serve our community with a collaborative approach.
Forking is a right everyone has, and it's pretty special that we are able to work in tandem (with PF Glitch) to deliver the best experience to the community, regardless of the source repo.
