PICASTRO - The brand new Astrophotography Instagram - a first glance!

Today a new App was released called PICASTRO. It should be an alternative to Instagram for Astrophotography without ads, fakes, AI clones and without killing your pics with compression. I had a first glance and will tell you my opinion about it.

Personally I don't care for Instagram at all. I like to frame my Astro images in a manner that works artistically for me and because it doesn't fit predefined requirements they get rejected. Besides it's a lot like Facebook which I think is pretty trashy as well. And I think the worst place to view my images is on a bloody phone. I don't care if it is the popular medium for people to share images. That just doesn't cut it for me. Seeing my pictures on a full screen computer is the only way to see them unless they are framed and mounted on the wall. And if all the places out there to archive pictures online ,I prefer Astrobin which is a much better place to display pictures in all their beauty and not have them destroyed by Instagram compression methods. It's a much more classy operation.

Thanks for your honest opinion. Sounds like it has some potential in time.

Not even registering works for me on Android.
But from what you showed in your video, it seems to have a long way to go before it could be of interest.
What I would really like to see at some point is a mobile app for Astrobin... 😅
