I almost never look at the app store but I popped in today in the wake of the TikTok ban and was shocked to see this.

I only heard of Pixelfed because of a post somewhere that was saying Facebook was blocking links to the website. I made an account and started using it for fun to spite Facebook. Now this could have simply been a bait post to drive engagement to Pixelfed **or ** Facebook is dumb and did some kind of Streisand effect.

It doesn't matter either way

And if you didn't already know, you now know about the Streisand effect.
