My favorite is PixelFed. I'm an artist, so Instagram was important for me, but for a few years now it's absolutely terrible (no reach at all with their special algorithms). PixelFed fixes all that, it replicates the feeling of IG as it was 8-10 years ago: chronological feed, tag-based, no extraneous features. I'm really enjoying it, as I can finally grow again my followship as an artist: https://pixelfed.org/

    How can I find you there ? I joined not long ago and I lack interesting people to follow. Also, curious to see your work :)

    Hm, is there a play store link? I'm not sure how to put an app on my phone that's not from the playstore

    Don't know about Pixelfed specifically (dont have it installed) but you can get FDroid from the play store and then use it to install other packages not approved by googul

    Where do you live where F-Droid is in the Play Store? In the US, you have to download the apk from the F-Droid website.

    Do you have any suggestions as to how to find people on there? I have it installed and am trying it out, but I'm running into a lot of the same problems I was having on Mastodon; it seems difficult to discover engaging content.
