✨ Pixelfed Stories

Share your daily adventures through photos and videos that disappear in 24 hours.

It's a simple way to give friends and followers a peek into your life without cluttering your main feed.

Perfect for those moments that are worth sharing, but not necessarily saving forever!

You can configure many settings without having to restart your server or run commands 😎

We even have a list of default rules you can import with a single click!

Our Wikipedia page is at risk of being deleted because it may not meet notability guidelines.

Can we get some help?

We're not that familiar with Wikipedia or its processes, but we think our project is notable enough for inclusion.

✨Groups by Pixelfed

Imagine if you could bring Facebook Groups to the fediverse, using your Pixelfed account!

Pixelfed Groups will be a separate and optional package that admins can install if desired.

Groups will ship with:

- Private Groups
- Mobile App
- Web UI
- Client API
- Federation (w/ Lemmy + others)
- Extensive mod tools

But wait, there's more, we're standardizing our Groups implementation so other projects can take advantage of our App and Client API.

Shipping Soon!

Happy beta testing! 🥳

PSA: We switched signing keys for our Pixelfed for Android app.

If you are having issues updating to the latest version (1.0.0.44), we suggest deleting the Pixelfed app from your Android device, then re-installing the APK from https://pixelfed.org/mobile-apps

We've submitted our app to the Play Store for an open beta, and look forward to distributing the app via Play Store and F-Droid in the near future!

We appreciate your patience during this beta period!

We're preparing for Loops and deploying a new server.

Did you know our Patreon barely covers our hosting costs?

We are able to provide services like https://pixelfed.social, https://fedidb.org and https://fediverse.info because of donations from our supporters.

If you enjoy these services, please consider donating!
