@dansup @PixelFed I’m not as invested in this topic as others in this thread seem to be, but it’s definitely worth taking a step back and thinking not about what feedback you’ve received but instead about what your app is /trying to be/.

Adding features is nice, but people use different apps for different reasons. You should serve what makes Pixelfed great, not try to make an everything app. ActivityPub is an open protocol; anyone can develop another app if demand is there
