However, it's still either meant or made out to be an Instagram clone. And Instagram pretty much is the one and only all-purpose social media daily driver for most of its users, for almost the entire Millennial generation. It was created as an image-sharing platform, and it's being used as a social network, just like the Zoomers use TikTok as a social network.
Thus, all those former Instagram users who were lured to Pixelfed by rather clueless Mastodon users use Pixelfed as their all-purpose Fediverse daily driver, probably also because they fail to wrap their minds around requiring multiple accounts and multiple logins for multiple Fediverse server applications.
This idea of only requiring one Pixelfed account to do pretty much everything in the Fediverse clashes hard with Daniel's idea of what Pixelfed is and shall be. Then again, the former idea was probably also fostered by Mastodon users who use Mastodon for pretty much everything in the Fediverse, regardless of whether Mastodon is fit for it or not.
And just like many Mastodon and Pixelfed users don't want to have more than one Fediverse login, many Mastodon and Pixelfed users don't want to move someplace that's more of a jack-of-all-trades, or they simply don't know that such places exist.
Then again, the really fully-featured jacks-of-all-trades in the Fediverse are Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte. But they're also at the opposite end of friendliness towards converts from corporate silos. They have steep learning curves Hubzilla, the most powerful of them, has the steepest. It's easier to adapt from Twitter to Mastodon than it is to adapt from Mastodon to Forte.
Also, other than (streams) and Forte being totally obscure, obstacles in joining them are also that (streams) barely has any public servers, and these servers are intentionally being kept away from server listings like Fediverse Observer and FediDB. And Forte doesn't have any public servers, full stop, only personal, single-user servers.

No, and I never will.See, my original images are renderings from extremely obscure 3-D virtual worlds. First of all, I have very good reasons to write my image descriptions that long see here:
Besides, how is someone supposed to accurately describe my images who has never even heard of the underlying technology of these worlds, much less the specific places which my images show, not to mention the contents of the images
See, in my long descriptions, I also give all necessary explanations so people neither have to look up anything themselves nor ask me anything to understand the images and the descriptions. For example, I don't simply mention where an image was made. I explain it, and I explain it at multiple levels (explanations of explanations etc.) because the topic at hand is so obscure.
People who know nothing about the images can't give any explanations because they know nothing about the images.
For example, tell me how you'd describe the object to the right of the avatar in this image: . Then we'll both laugh. And then I'll give you a copy of how I've actually explained and described it.
Lastly, other people would describe my images by looking at the images. I'm far ahead of that. I describe my images by going in-world and looking at the real deal. I can see vastly more details. I can and do transcribe text of which people who look at the image don't even know it's there because it's so tiny.
This also enables me to identify far more elements in the image than complete laypeople who only have an 800x533 image to look at. I can tell you, quote from an actual image description, "there are two identical aa palms in square terracotta pots with wide rims" while nobody else can even spot the plants in the first place, much less identify them.

Two and a half years ago, I racked my brains on how to describe four images of nebulae within three images. In descriptions that'd end up almost 40,000 characters, over 25,000 characters and almost 10,000 characters long respectively. I almost decided against posting these images because I felt incapable of describing these details appropriately.
I still think these detail descriptions are far away from being as good as they could possibly be, also because there's another image in the image which I've described in almost 4,700 characters.
It took me two days to research for and write these descriptions, one day for the first image, the other day for the other two.
Link to the post in question (caution, the image descriptions are extremely outdated by my current standards):
In all seriousness, I've rendered images that I intended to post, and I ended up not posting them because I couldn't realistically describe them. I've even refrained from making images of other scenes, simply because there was no way I could possibly describe them appropriately.
Not Hard. LOL.
Oh, and by the way: I'm working on a wiki about alt-texts and image descriptions with a special focus on the Fediverse. I expect it to have some 50 pages or more, and I have more than 50 references for the wiki now. Here's the link to the wiki:
Not Hard.
