Is Pixelfed sawing off the branch that the Fediverse is sitting on?
No. But I hear the community: you want text-only posts.
We are going to build this as an opt-in feature. If you want microblogging, turn it on.
If you prefer the classic media-only experience, nothing changes.

Give me a few weeks, I promise you won't be disappointed.
