The beta for groups will release later this week, which won't be federated initially. Federation will be added afterwards.
Looks like it will have some interesting features like videos, polls, and events, as well as moderator tools like limiting what a user can do.

I hope we get more instances thats more art focsed rather then tech. I see a lot of protential with that.
lemmyloves.art was just created and there’s also literature.cafe, but there definitely should be more focused instances being created, instead of general-purpose ones.
In case you haven't seen it yet, I've compiled a fairly sizeable list of focused instances. More would be cool, but there's a fair number to check out already.
!pixelart@lemmyloves.art and !digitalart@lemmyloves.art look great! ! fiction@literature.cafe and !nonfiction@literature.cafe too
Thanks for the shout out! I agree, more niche hobby focused instances are better.
Today there was a post about an art instance for Lemmy 😊
Maybe someone will create one on Pixelfed too
Aw thank you for the shout out! I run lemmyloves.art as well as literature.cafe I contemplated making an art focused instance on pixelfed over lemmy but the software just generally isn't there yet imo. Maybe someday I might give it a shot provided if I get donations to help sustain my current instances on lemmy. I like pixelfed and it's rapid development though, it's extremely promising.
I just made an account on literature.cafe last night. :) Haven't gotten around to logging in and doing anything yet, but I like having a couple alts to see unique local feeds and such, and yours looked so interesting! I love how federation allows for those kinds of interest-specific instances. Can't wait to explore yours. :)
Yes the dev made huge progress the last few weeks I wish you good luck with your instance. I subscripted to pixelart already 🌞
If it reaches a certain critical mass. These things always have a tech bias at the beginning because it's the nerds who invent them.
