I haven't uploaded mine yet either and I've followed many accounts. I need to get a bio in there, at least, until I can get a good pic or two!

@FediTips

This may be a wider problem. Established users appearing blank on Pixelfed but assuming that because they know who they are, everyone else does too 😊

Bio first, then explore.

Accounts can sometimes look blank even when they're not, due to the way federation works.

This is especially true of new accounts without any followers, which is exactly what you'd expect during an influx of new people.

To check what an account actually looks like, go to its profile page, click ... and then "open in browser" or "open original page" (or similar phrases). This will show the account on its own server, which is the fullest newest version.
