| summary | Pixelfed is a decentralized social networking platform that aims to provide users with more control over their online presence. It's built on top of the existing photo-sharing standard, Microblogging, and uses the ActivityPub protocol, which allows it to interoperate with other platforms like Mastodon and GNU Social.
Key features include:
1. Decentralized Network: Unlike centralized platforms like Facebook or Instagram, Pixelfed doesn't rely on a single company's servers. Instead, it's composed of multiple independent servers run by various organizations and individuals. This design promotes data privacy and reduces the risk of censorship.
2. Photo-centric: As its name suggests, Pixelfed focuses primarily on sharing high-quality photos. Users can upload images, add captions, and tag other users, similar to Instagram or Flickr.
3. ActivityPub Protocol: This open standard enables communication between different servers, allowing Pixelfed users to interact with those from other decentralized platforms (e.g., Mastodon, PeerTube).
4. End-to-End Encryption (E2EE): For private messages, Pixelfed supports E2EE, ensuring that only the sender and receiver can read the content of their conversations.
5. Open Source: The platform's source code is publicly available, enabling anyone to inspect, modify, or contribute to its development.
6. Privacy-focused: By decentralizing data storage and using end-to-end encryption for messages, Pixelfed prioritizes user privacy compared to traditional social media platforms. |
