I had a random idea for a potential Fediverse platform: what if someone took the idea and design of Upscrolled, but as a decentralized, federated alternative?
Pro-Palestine protesters, users. etc are flocking to US, given the crackdown towards them on other platforms and sites.
Having a federated alternative to Upscrolled could potentially bring in more users, as well as introduce more people to the Fediverse.
Not to mention that there has already been talk of companies (ie Apple, Google, etc) removing US from their App Stores.

EDIT: I made a post on the Upscrolled Subreddit, about whether or not Upscrolled should consider potential federation.
What’s special about upscrolled other than being Pro Palestine? The screenshots just look like Instagram. So you could probably create a themed Pixelfed instance to get the same effect?
Upscrolled implementing federation would be interesting ofc. But unless I miss something, it doesn’t seem that it’s doing anything new?
