I thought that Pixelfed was more like an alternative to something like instagram (maybe it's the same as imgur but I've never been a big instagram guy :downcast face with sweat: ).
Thx for the second one, it seems really cool even if it's not open source.
They seem kinda different, but both are in the end just a place to upload pictures. The difference is that instagram and pixelfed have more user-centric / following type features than imgur, which was meant originally just to be a quick upload bin. Although now imgur is trying to be kind of a new social network in itself with having "tags", votes, and comment threads.
