PixivFE

A privacy-respecting alternative front-end for Pixiv that doesn't suck.

Questions? Feedback? You can PM me on Matrix! You can also look in Known Quirks Of PixivFE to see if your issue already has a known solution.

You can keep track of this project's development here.

Features

• Lightweight - both the interface and the code
• Privacy-first - the server will do the work for you
• No bloat - we only serve HTML, CSS and minimal JS code
• Open source - you can trust me!

Hosting

You can use PixivFE for personal use! Assuming that you use an operating system that can run POSIX shell scripts, install go, clone this repository, modify the run.sh file, and profit! I recommend self-hosting your own instance for personal use, instead of relying entirely on official instances.
