You can't ignore the strength of ActivityPub and the fediverse.

Pixelfed has nothing to gain and everything to lose if it shifts from its open, fediverse-focused direction to seek VC funding.

I've turned down several offers.

I'd rather be funded by y'all on a shoestring budget than sell out and have @pixelfed lose the very luster that made it shine.

It's your impact that makes our project shine. Forget profits; y'all are the true shareholders.

@dansup @pixelfed As a Pixelfed user I thank you for not selling out. I would not resist, grab the money and run.

@dansup can't you do both? Sell it and fork it, build an even better thing out of the fork with the newly made money? πŸ€”
