Ratings and reviews

What a refreshing app experience. No ads, no constant fighting with spammy content. Photos show up in a stream with no usernames or info, you can tag your posts and filter by relevant content tags like black and white, film, landscape, food, portrait, etc. Like and comment, explore great photos and a kind environment of creatives sharing a huge breadth of work. Works well, no bugs or issues so far in my use, and an optional subscription but free otherwise. Can't wait to see how it grows!

So far, so good. I love this app. It's minimal, and I don't have to deal with ads, spam, influencers or accounts trying to farm engagement. I don't like the fact that people can follow you but sometimes it says "unidentified user". I'm not sure if that means they hadn't confirmed anything on their account yet, if it's somebody that deleted their account or if it's a hidden account.

Probably the cleanest and easiest to use social app focused on photography. A lot of times when platforms like this come around, they set themselves so far apart that they feel foreign and intimidating to pick up. In its current form, Foto reminds me of a proto-instagram. A bit barebones, but it's easy enough to navigate without ever feeling overwhelmed. That being said, I'm excited to see what additions come first to this platform. Keeping my fingers crossed for carousel-style posting🤞
