I have to implement Direct Messages in Loops, and it reminded me of Sup.

Pixelfed and Loops could be the first fediverse E2EE software duo.

Then we ship Sup and give it to the rest of the fediverse, including compatibility with ongoing E2EE efforts.

2026 will be a huge year for the fediverse πŸš€

Account Suggestions that prioritize what you like and who your friends follow β€” not just based on follower counts.
Hide suggestions you don't want. The algorithm adapts to you.
This is discovery done right.

Shipping soon to mobile & web πŸš€

An infographic titled "How Loops Finds Your Next Favorite Account," illustrating the algorithm process in three steps.

The Candidate Pool: On the left, a crowd of diverse user avatars enters a funnel labeled "The Filters." Profiles that are "Already Followed," "Hidden/Blocked," "Inactive/No Bio," or "Not Local" are shown falling out of the bottom of the funnel, while valid profiles pass through.

The Personal Recipe: In the center, the valid profiles enter a mixing bowl metaphor to be scored. Three measuring scoops pour ingredients into the bowl, representing the scoring weights: a large purple scoop for "Shared Interests (60%)," a medium green scoop for "Mutual Connections (30%)," and small spoons for "Creator Activity (7%)" and "Popularity (3%)."

Your Recommendations: On the right, the result flows into a smartphone screen displaying a list of profile cards. The top card is highlighted as a "Top Match" with a 98% match score, followed by other profiles with 92% and 87% match scores

Pixelfed has always been and will always be a platform that centers photos and creative artwork first and foremost.

It is deliberately not a microblogging platform, there are plenty of other microblogging platforms.

The criticism? I hear it. But we're not backing down from our vision.

Photo sharing first, foremost and forever.

Our @pixelfed community is incredible, defending our project while pushing it forward.

I'm committed to listening more. But let's be clear: we're not just fixing bugs. We're dismantling Big Tech's stranglehold on social media.

Pixelfed is sawing off Instagram's branch to plant something better: a platform owned by its users, not corporations.

The fediverse is safer because of @thisismissem

Her tireless dedication to trust and security protects us all, but this work requires resources.

I'm seeking organizations to sponsor her ($500+/mo) to ensure this mission continues.

Her value to our ecosystem is immeasurable.

I personally vouch for her expertise and impact, as many leaders in this space will. We cannot afford to lose her contributions.

Please boost and mention orgs on the fedi with this toot πŸ™

Dear Pixelfed:

I'm not Santa, but I have been working hard on a few presents for you.

I've heard the feedback and complaints, and can't wait for you to open up these gifts on Christmas day.

You won't be disappointed, I promise πŸ˜‰

You'd have to be crazy to compete with Instagram.
Then they made Threads and joined us.

You'd have to be even crazier to compete with TikTok.
Then we got 20k signups and press coverage before we even had an app.

Maybe I am crazy.

Or maybe people just want ethical platforms built for them, not shareholders.

The world needs more well-intentioned chaos. Build with us. Donate. Join. Share.

@mellifluousbox @cwebber @evan @newsmast @michael @FreddieJ @bonfire @ivan @mayel @Flipboard @mike @john @ghost @activitypub.blog @pfefferle @rileytestut @altstore The respect is mutual ❀️

Thank you for mentioning me, it really means a lot.

I joined Mastodon in 2016 and wouldn't have started @pixelfed if it wasn't for the interest and support I found on Mastodon back in 2018.

I owe so much to you guys, and am forever your #1 fan.

Let's continue building the future together πŸš€

The EU has supported me, @pixelfed and @loops more than my own country!

I’m forever grateful to @nlnet, our patrons, kickstarter backers, open collective and liberapay donors for funding us and helping sustain active development for all our projects.

It isn’t easy or cheap to build, run and maintain a dozen fediverse projects, but your support has really helped.

Thank you.

Your support is needed more than ever as we build a better TikTok ❀️
