For some background, I came out as trans to my sister in June and last month I managed to talk about it to my parents. Two weeks ago I bought these clothes and today I wore them outside for the first. It was in a therapy group where I already came out so it wasn’t too scary, but I was still kinda stressed when I got there. Anyways I’m really happy about it
Also, unrelated but I tried to cross-post this from [email protected] but apparently you can only do that with link posts on piefed. Does anyone know if there’s an easier to do this other than copy and pasting the posts content ?
You look great!
Regarding your tech question, afaik lemmy and piefed are separate protocols, so if you have a multi-protocol app, crossposting might work better. (EDIT: Or, I’m told, they’re both ActivityPub-based and meant to work together, but at this point in time there are differences in the details that complicate things a little.) Otherwise an instance would need to be compatible but run a bridge that handles that. I wish these things were better connected, thinking specifically of the divide between ActivityPub and Diaspora, as well as Bluesky’s formerly defederated state.
Piefed and lemmy are both group actor based activitypub platforms, and Piefed is explicitly designed to be compatible with lemmy, simply because lemmy has the traction/momentum in the activitypub niche they both exist in.
The difference isn’t protocol based, it’s just a piefed design decision and one that could easily be changed if a dev gets the chance to put some time in to it.
Ah ok, then it could easily all work seamlessly one day.
I think they already work pretty seamlessly? They could drift apart over time, but I believe there is some amount of coordination between Lemmy and PieFed devs.
Thanks
Okay, that’s kind of annoying, unfortunately the app I used before (eternity) doesn’t support piefed yet and is rarely updated. I’m sticking with the web app for now
Voyager supports both as well, although some of piefed’s more unique features aren’t there yet.
Also, your outfit is awesome!
fwiw F-Droid has an app called Blorp which apparently supports Lemmy and PieFed
Blorp dev here. I approve of this message, and OP’s outfit is fire
