I remember the jokes about how FB purchased a photo filter app and how easy it was to make photo effects. Sometimes it feels like techies not always get what is valuable and what is not as much.
Despite it being where-everyone presumably-is I do not want to use Instagram, so I am not sure what's best to do.. is there a good-enough 'open'/decentralised alternative now?
It's not part of the public internet, that's probably the main problem, but I also have quite a strong aversion to things run by large corporations. At the moment I let google in, but that's it. (and they completely ruined my previous picasa-album sharing of my galleries of fractals, so I'm not hugely happy here either!)
I am more interested to find a passionate niche of ppl that really love the journey than getting general exposure, I guess that's another side of things: 2d fractals don't really have much mass-market appeal, but if you know what's going on there, it's a lot more interesting to follow!
Sure, I've heard the name around HN a fair bit and had a brief look into it in the past, loved the idea but didn't get very far yet. (Gentoo linux user here, not helpless) Do you have any recommendations for docs about getting started with sharing images on pixelFed?
