Any thoughts on Pixelfed support for image/video hosting in kbin? (kbin.social)

It seems that the developer for Pixelfed is creating a kbin app. Any thoughts on integrating upload/hosting support for pixelfed into posts here? I haven't seen anyone else mention it, but it seems like integrating between other open source and decentralized ActivityPub software might help adoption of the fediverse overall.

That would be super useful! I’m drawn towards the platforms like kbin that have managed to juggle multiple features of the fediverse (threads+microblog). At the same time I think it’s important to make it feel like an organic part of the user experience so that you don’t end up with a mega-fediverse app that technically does everything but none of it particularly well. Seems like there’s a lot of great developers on it though and media hosting via pixelfed I think would definitely make sense eventually.
