What’s the alternative closest to the completeness of Instander at the moment? I have been using the last version of Instander still supporting v7a which is v16.0 for many years now and as it seems there is a chance it will finally stop working soon.

      Is their one app, for pixelfed, Lemmy and mastadon, that respects your privacy? Or is 3 separate apps better?

        FediLab is an explicitly general Fediverse app, though it’s not designed for lemmy. There’s also plenty of native cross-fedi support, as all activities are translated into ActivityPub events.

        Frankly I’d recommend a separate app for Lemmy-likes and Mastodon-likes. The difference between following communities and following accounts seems to result in a lot of jank, if crammed into one app.

          Yeah weirdly enough even though i post more to Pix than to Insta, millions of users haven’t switch. 🤷‍♂️

            I’d contribute to the thirst traps to get everyone to come over but I don’t think anyone wants to see a hair overweight dude get nearly naked.

      My favourite Band for example. They only use Instagram and Facebook. It’s infuriating. I just log in via browser every few months.

        Make a page for them, auto paste their content, then tell them they have a following on pixelfed, and hand them the account.

        The thing is that you don’t need to close you FB/Insta/X/whatever account to open one in any Fediverse service, but they don’t get that.
