Honestly its kind of amazing how far piefed has reached already with the exceptionally tiny donations. @[email protected] has done an awesome job.
Almost at 100$ a month :) https://www.patreon.com/PieFed
Thanks :)
Just set up a recurring donation yesterday 🫡
Now that is cool!
Nice!
It’s crazy how long Lemmy is under development, and then kind of out of nowhere Piefed showed up. (I know it was probably a bit different but that’s how I experienced it)
Its started to gain some traction after June of this year.

I remember some semi popular lemmy servers have decided to shut down, which left some holes…if I were to guess. Piefed is also pretty easy to standup.
Yep, 100%. I’m waiting for the API to mature to the point where I can do everything the native interface can do. I really don’t want to waste my time making a second-class app.
Unfortunately, while I do have Python experience, I don’t have the spare time to contribute to the API code. At least not right now. Hopefully that changes soon.
Hello,
So is Tesseract development fully back? Last update I had was that is was in maintenance mode
Seems like it. I was planning only on maintenance, but with the huge amount of work I’ve put into the current dev branch, I can’t really call it maintenance anymore.
Well, good news I guess?
*magnificient news!
Hopefully one can figure out a good balance in browsing the fediverse as running an instance can be tough but developing the Tesseract frontend and engaging with civil communities may be the right play.
Do not be afraid to block the bad instances, maybe consider checking out Infosec.pub and Lemmy.cafe for extra piece of mind until your master piece is ready for Piefed. Quokk.au is considering defederating from .ml. So that could be your ultimate home.
Thanks. I’ve largely been active here for development/testing purposes lately, but agreed. That’s also why I’ve put so much effort into expanding and making a very powerful/granular filtering system in this release. Right now, I can filter entire instances, entire platforms (e.g. Mastodon), people/instances/platforms in specific communities, filter users/communities by regex pattern, etc. Makes it nice to filter people out of specific communities without blocking them entirely.
Eh, I know I made a big stink about it (which I stand by lol), but technically Dubvee’s still online since I need it for developing/testing the admin and mod capabilities. It’s mothballed but still able to be brought back if I ever choose to and get some more admins on board.
To be fair, it’s getting better, [email protected]
