      PieFed is the libs’ great white hope to save them from the scary tankies and even worse, Asians

          True, but Lemmy seems to be more stable and has a longer track record. Also, many of these so-called features are the piefed developer putting their thumb on the scale for the cause of liberalism

            Piefeds fine now. Hasn’t gone done in weeks?

            Not sure how topics, feeds, events, scheduled posts, flairs, hashtags are inherently liberalism.

              I have neither used it nor investigated it, just read some of the posts announcing it, and also heard about stability issues second hand. When I read the initial announcement, I remember a good handful of lib’d up features, but I do not claim that all are that way.

              In general, I support additional fediverse software, but piefed has a lot of “hostile fork” vibes. Based on the dogshit moderation I have received from the boosters of piefed, I will certainly not be recommending any of its servers to anyone I know

                Piefed.social, the largest instance by default blocks hexbear and lemmygrad - but other piefed instances may remove these blocks if they so choose. Dbzero already has a mirror server set up on piefed software.

                And yeah, it had issues a month or so ago, but it’s as stable as any lemmy instance since then.
