Any thoughts on Pixelfed support for image/video hosting in kbin?
It seems that the developer for Pixelfed is creating a kbin app. Any thoughts on integrating upload/hosting support for pixelfed into posts here? I haven't seen anyone else mention it, but it seems like integrating between other open source and decentralized ActivityPub software might help adoption of the fediverse overall.

I think Pixelfed already works, or is on the roadmap. Ernest has mentioned it before: https://kbin.social/m/fediverse/p/568136/I-m-curious-about-Pixelfed-Do-I-need-a-new-account
That would be super useful! I’m drawn towards the platforms like kbin that have managed to juggle multiple features of the fediverse (threads+microblog). At the same time I think it’s important to make it feel like an organic part of the user experience so that you don’t end up with a mega-fediverse app that technically does everything but none of it particularly well. Seems like there’s a lot of great developers on it though and media hosting via pixelfed I think would definitely make sense eventually.
