Why pixelfed.ca when pxlfd.ca was already there? (self.pixelfed)

Not trying to start a war here, just curious why the new instance was created. Different purpose, different goals, or just 'cause?

Cool! As long as there wasn't some deep ideological divide, that would make me want to swing one way or another.

Thanks for the input.

Pixelfed also has a bit of a different approach on scaling. It favors a larger number of smaller instances, as a way to distribute the load of hosting the photos.

A default config is limited to 1000 users.
