I keep looking at Pixelfed, and even as a relatively technical person, I have absolutely no idea how to get going with it.
Right now, go to pixelfed.org and there's a "Join" button in the top right corner, click on that and there's a message telling me "To join Pixelfed, you need to pick an instance.
You can find a list of instances on the sites below." - click on either of those and it's a completely baffling list of stuff with no obvious way to continue. At this point I always give up.

Hah, you're right, you end up in some slow-loading dashboard (hooray fancy graphed realtime numbers!). I clicked on a random hostname, it's another dashboard page with the hostname in large, the same hostname as a link as a subtitle. I clicked the link, and hey, it's a page that looks like Instagram's sign up page, with the difference being that this one says: "Registrations are closed." I tried a few more sites, even the one with the most number of users, and they all say this. Only the 5th site I clicked on allows me to register. Ah only now do I notice the column "Open Signups" in their fancy dashboard...
