Pixelfed got featured on the Wired and here's what @dansup@mastodon.social, the author of @pixelfed@mastodon.social, says:

[...]

All those long nights working on backend scalability and performance improvements are about to be put to the test

I wasn't anticipating this attention for a few more months, but I'm ready ๐Ÿ˜Ž

The photo app that is terrible at telling me what is NSFW and what isn't.

Literally, I had a picture on Pixelfed that was marked NSFW and opening it revealed a fucking tree.

Then I scroll down and I think, "oh it is another NSFW tree." No it was an image of two people fucking." I don't care if there is porn but the algorithm to determine what porn is on Pixelfed is shit. Make it work better or just give me a damn toggle to turn it all off.

Ideally there should be no algorithm for this stuff but it would make moderation harder
