You guys are awesome.

Any updates on when Pixelfed and Friendica will be ready? I’m waiting for the fedecan instance before I sign up for those :)

Pixelfed soon. We have a domain registered and I've started provisioning the infra.

Friendica isn't on our todo list yet, not sure if it will be or not since none of us are regular Facebook users.

Edit: Enough people are asking about friendica that I promise to investigate more after pixelfed is up.

fwiw I would join a friendica instance in a heartbeat and lobby for people I know on fb to sign up.
