Pixelfed: “groups” are coming and they will be compatible with Lemmy (who knows if they will also be compatible with Friendica)

@fediverse

Groups are not new to Pixelfed, we have webUI support but the feature wasn’t polished enough for use, until now ✨

:pixelfed: Groups will be compatible with #Lemmy, #Mbin, #Smithereen and other projects, and will resemble Facebook Groups in our official app!

Stay tuned, we’ll be shipping the updated Groups support in the app and webUI this weekend 🚀

    He’s mentioned this before, but I’ve never been able to find an actual PixelFed Group (it doesn’t appear to be the same thing as what they call Collections). I’ll have another look when pixelfed.social enables them this weekend (but I suspect parsing titles for the posts will be a nightmare).

    Also, ‘smithereen’ is tagged but I’m not sure of its status (all I found was 1 private instance run by the dev, federated with 1 “explicitly-free-speech” Akkoma instance).
