I've received 5 VC offers "to chat" regarding Pixelfed in the past few days.

Not for sale.

Pixelfed belongs to the people.

I'd rather be broke and true to my beliefs, than sell out.

That's why I'm organizing a Kickstarter to fund the ethical development of Pixelfed, Loops and more.

It's time that someone stood up to them, instead of joining them.

Are you with me?

@dansup I hope you're extremely proud of the work you've done but I wonder if you can address the disconnect between the Loops TOS and the philosophy you're describing here.

@Gustodon @dansup he said he will fix it soon. he used some automatic generation for the ToS because he doesn't have a lot of time for that, but obviously the ToS are wrong and he said he will fix them.

@nextgraph Thank you. I really appreciate the additional information.

@nextgraph @Gustodon @dansup
And it didn't occur to him that an automatic generator would be biased in favor of the status quo he's supposed to be trying to fight?

@pteryx @Gustodon @dansup i see you are a wise person. i am sure you would be more than welcome to join his efforts and help him with handling some tasks, as he might be overwhelmed in the process of suddenly scaling up, due to very recent conjunction of events, namely Meta allegiance to Trump/Musk, ban of TikTok, and him being almost ready with 2 wonderful apps PixelFed and Loops, developed in the course of the last 7 years, all alone.
