And for the record, there was nothing even remotely racist in my comment. Dessalines just can’t accept being wrong. 🤷🏻♀️
UPDATE : I am (almost) sad to report the ban only extends to [email protected] !
Also, I found the original comment, here it is (and if you see what’s racist about it, please tell me, I’m open to being wrong about this, although I really doubt it) :
( Update 2 : cropped the second image properly )
No surprise. Dessalines is the reason I switched from lemmy to piefed once my instance anounced it’s going to shut down…
Is piefed centered on communities instead of people, like Lemmy ? The reason I only use reddit-like social media is because I’ve never cared to follow individuals, but I do care about communities and shared interests.
Well, from my very limited experience point of view it is exactly 1:1 replacement of Lemmy.
It might not support 100% lemmy features, but generally it functions the same.
Probably gonna switch later today then 👀
You can even export your followed communities in lemmy and import them into piefed.
Can I find and subscribe to nifty communities from Piefed in my Lemmy account? And how do I do that?
Piefed (like piefed.social) should look just like another lemmy instance. Not sure how proper linking works /c/[email protected] or [email protected] or https://piefed.social/c/piefed_meta
Yes.
Yes, it is. You can be confused when checking it out because it not only allows you to navigate communities individually like on Lemmy but also bundle of communities for a single feed by topic or custom feeds created by others (likw how people can bundle a list of profiles for its own custom feed on Bluesky, but instead you do it with communities on PieFed)
Communities (Lemmy) = Communities (PieFed)
Topics (PieFed) = by so far what I understood its created by the instance usually and by default when self-hosting your own it will have some topics already organized with feed from communities related to the topic title
Feed (PieFed) = user & instance custom built feed of communities (Lemmy or PieFed) bundled together into a single feed and easily shareable with others
You can check the PieFed instance list here , some Lemmy instances are alreqdy starting to host a PieFed instance on the side too I just dont see lemmy.zip instance for PieFed there yet which is piefed.zip but you can check the others in the notes by the side of their address
I though PiedFed was the fediverse Instagram, I guess I was wrong !
That would be Pixelfed , maybe you just confused the names :)
If you are looking for fediverse Facebook, theres Friendica but in that case I find Friendica better if you’re going to selfhost for you and your friends to use for having a different use case, also supports bridging with plenty of Fediverse platforms and Fediverse-friendly platforms like Bluesky and even pull RSS Feeds into your feed, its quite the tool if you are willing to selfhost or any of your friends IRL are
Don’t forget Nutomic.
I’m sure they are might be nice people IRL but they are authoritarian as hell and have terrible political opinion.
Isn’t Nutomic also transphobic? Not sure that falls under “nice people IRL”
True. I kinda forgot about that.
Damn these devs do so much bad shit, it has like a flood the zone with shit effect where you kinda forget.
Your instance is already hosting a PieFed instance on the side you can confirm here , its piefed.blahaj.zone
i know it is, im just waiting for full voyager support.
Lemm.ee I’m guessing? How do you like piefed.social? None of the apps I use support piefed yet but I’m thinking about biting the bullet anyway
The beta version of voyager supports it. I’m using it right now. You can find the download links for the beta here.
Wow that’s awesome didn’t know Voyager was adding piefed, thank you so much for the info!
By the way Fedecan (nonprofit behind lemmy.ca and sh.itjust.works) is already hosting a PieFed instance you can confirm here , its piefed.ca
Lemm.ee indeed. So far it’s been quite decent alternative to lemmy. I used voyager on mobile, switched to Interstellar, which is not as polished yet honestly, but it’s still very much usable. For web interface I find the defaults much, MUCH better on piefed than on lemmy. I disliked lemmys default to be so bad I’d rather used something else like Alexandrite or Photon.
To be honest, since Lemm.ee anouncement my main goal was to ditch lemmy (thanks to dessalines) and stay with fediverse. The other consideration was mbin (like fedia.io), but after some reading it seems it’s very limited by manpower and probably won’t see much development in near future.
