Ok, yet another fediverse copy of a previous app where none of the people/things I want to follow are at...at least Mastodon has bird.makeup which clones twitter accounts so I can still see the people I follow who don't use Mastodon.

Does Pixelfed have a version of that for Instagram?

Just use Instagram? You can't engage with Fediverse clone accounts.

I don't care too much about interacting overall. Guess I will just stick with Insta

I mean yeah, at this point people are here on Fediverse out of principle, not content. It's like complaining why there are no scrappy reality dating shows on PBS, it's missing the point.
