A university course is currently trying out Pixelfed

    A few weeks ago, we started noticing a number of applications on pixelfed.ca, where the user would say that they needed to register for a course. I don't have full confirmation, but I'm fairly certain that this is a legitimate wave of signups from students at a Canadian university.

    I'm sharing this post for a few reasons:

    1. I thought it was neat

    Personally, I'm excited that people are trying out Pixelfed and using it in coursework like this. If you are one of the students, now seeing this post, welcome! 🙂 I hope that the project goes well, and that you have a pleasant experience on the platform. Feel free to share any and all feedback.

    1. Some of the posts may look like spam at first

    You might be seeing similar looking posts from different accounts on your feed. My guess is that the course has specific requirements and example templates. However, there's also plenty of real content (ex. artwork, photography, etc.), so I don't think it's going to be disruptive

    1. Please report anything that seems off

    As always, you can report inappropriate content through the UI. For urgent issues, please email us at support@pixelfed.ca. You can also DM admin@lemmy.ca as there is overlap with our Pixelfed and Lemmy team members.

    That’s neat, universities can be both frustratingly slow to change and surprisingly far ahead of the curve, it’s cool seeing courses and professors adapt to the changing world like this.

    It always messes with my head the fact that Pixelfed's logo is virtually identical to Polyend's.

    A year ago there were a bunch of new accounts posting random crap in PieFed, often using the same IP address. Turned out they were from a course. The professor had spoken to me about it a few weeks earlier but I had no idea the students would behave that weirdly.

    And it's nice to see them adapt to a changing world in a direction that I actually like
