I'm trying to move a lot of my social media habits to the Fediverse in light of digital ID/mass surveillance bills being pushed in Canada, and I remember hearing about Pinetta, a federated Pinterest alternative awhile back. Does anyone know what's happened to it? It doesn't look to have had any updates in a few years. I'm wondering if it's been abandoned?

Does anyone know of any other federated Pinterest alternatives? Pinterest has been how a lot of small businesses survive over the years. It'd be wonderful if there was a federated alternative to it.

·pond is under development: you can follow its development on Mastodon or something: @pppond@mastodon.social, and join its Matrix chat at #pppapp:matrix.org

Fun fact: its creator made Prismo, which was a federated link aggregator even before Lemmy. Unfortunately, Prismo content never made it to Lemmy as former ceased to exist and latter federated only later.

Thanks for letting me know about this! I'll definitely keep an eye on this project. I'd love to see more federated alternatives pop up for small businesses. A federated marketplace of sorts would be awesome too. If you catch wind of any federated marketplace projects popping up, feel free to send it my way.

Since the repo lists its 2023 plans as “…”

I’d say it’s probably dead.

Pixelfed?

Pixelfed might work since it's more image sharing. It's definitely the most developed, though, I feel like it's more of an Instagram alternative than a Pinterest alternative.
