Instagram suspended our account, one we've never posted from, just added a link to https://pixelfed.org in the bio.

@pixelfed maybe time to actually work and push updates to pixelfed ?

@pixelfed

Let me confirm your suspicion.

Yes, it was suspended exactly for the reason you believe it was.

We've been cracking down on service providers that provide products or services in direct competition with our own.

Even if we restore it at a later time, expect to be more easily scrutinized.

@pixelfed LoL. They aren't even hiding behind a mask anymore.

Just wait until they get a private army like Russian companies!

@deusfigendi

Yes, we have also been cracking down an inactive accounts too.

Especially, if you're not part of the problem of us being a successful evil corporation, you're not welcome.

@pixelfed if pixelfed joins the diabolic data buisenes, then pixelfed would be welcome

[fluffykittycat@furry.engineer]

@miiko @pixelfed they've been censoring alternatives for a while now. They're evil and they're scared

[amapoladrawingsgab@mastoart.social]

@pixelfed yep, this happens to me while creating and setting up instagram for the first day, forced me to verify my face, put a fake one and disable ^ ^'
