In April 2025, PixelUnion was a launch post on Reddit and a service that, until a few weeks earlier, only friends and family used. Bram’s mother and grandparents were among the first users. His grandmother was happy to see all her old photos back on her phone.

Eighteen months later, journalists in the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland have written about PixelUnion, tested it, and in some cases criticized it. We did not pay for any of that coverage. This post is a thank you, and an overview of who wrote what.
