@dansup maybe we should do a poll about this. I certainly DO want to see image posts from other platforms in Pixelfed even if they are from articles.

I am of the opinion of Dan. If we have specialized platforms like Pixelfed, it’s to focus on some specific purpose (here, photography). If you want a generalistic platform, there are other apps such as Friendica. Otherwise we end up with all apps doing everything but not very well.
Open to a poll of course!
