With some hacking at the database and APIs, I've put together a python script that allows backfilling of posts. I've now pulled in the most recent 50 posts of anyone that one of our users is following.

You may now bask in cats. https://pixelfed.ca/i/web/profile/797991200484212751

Hopefully that'll help it feel a little less empty!

Confused. How does this work if I'm on another instance?

What do you mean? If you're a pixelfed user who followed another user on an outside instance, you'll now see their last ~50 posts instead of just what they've posted since we stared.

If you're an outside pixelfed user, this doesn't impact you at all. It's only for pixelfed.ca

Kk the latter. Answer is I can't.
