I also know of it as an Instagram-type experience, and it's quite good at that, too. From my limited usage, I don't think it could replace Google Photos, though

  Right, that's what got me wondering. I've got an account on the flagship Pixelfed instance, and I started thinking whether that's a plausible use case - setting all uploads to private (or, I guess "unlisted" is the only available option) and effectively using it like Google Photos. I guess it's a bit of a stretch but my preferred attitude is to be open minded and generally to cheer on the activitypub projects. They are, in the end, a force for good.

    Certainly, but it's a free service hosted by volunteers, and I think uploading gigabytes of private photos would hurt the service for no benefit to them.
