Was at a random IRL (non-tech-related) event in Berlin yesterday and overheard a conversation (in french) mentioning open source social media and I butted into their conversation and discovered it was someone complaining they had tried pixelfed but it was too buggy and confusing and they were talking about how if any of these "alternative networks" want to make it they need to copy the UI/UX of instagram as close as absolutely possible. ended up having a really interesting conversation with them
