I think the announcement post should have stayed pinned longer. I waited a long time for your Pixelfed instance. One evening, I did a random Lemmy check and saw the announcement post pinned at the top of my feed. The next day, it was gone. I'm sure there are some people who are interested in a Pixelfed instance run by the Lemmy.ca team and may not even realize it's already live.

Good to know :)

I'll see if we can make it more prominent, maybe in the instance sidebar, or by pinning more pixelfed.ca related announcements as they come up.

I worry about pinning things for too long, since it can crowd up people's feed and make them ignore the posts if they pop up too often. There's a balance to it, and we might have taken that one down too quickly
