And eventually:
Friendship ended with Lemmy
Now Piefed is my new best friend
Beautiful thing about the fediverse is that people can choose and no one get’s excluded if you do not agree with the popular choice. Hope it stays that way.

Nothing says community like splintering the already tiny community into 90 smaller
distrossub-communitiesIt’s all one fediverse, the only difference is who crafts your frontend.

Splintering nothing. I’m on Piefed right now. The Fediverse means it plays nice with Lemmy just fine. Same with Mbin.
Care to explain what piefed is and how it differs from lemmy? I thought it was just one of the instances in lemmyverse
PieFed is an alternative platform in the same social media category of Lemmy, “Forum and link aggregator”.
It’s younger, but is being rapidly developed, esp considering it’s written in mostly python instead of Rust.
Biggest benefit though, is it doesn’t come with toxic political ideologies attached like Lemmy does (https://lemmy.world/post/29072279)
Also why we’re moving to more generic terms like “Threadiverse” instead of “Lemmy-verse”
Like, 30 minutes in. So far the front page is a breath of fresh air. Reddit is unusable as of a few months ago. Just trash on top of trash.
Reddit has been shit for like 5+ years at that larger levels, but some small niche hobby and similar subs are still decent.
After a while, you realize this place is not perfect either. Too much Linux (although I’m on Linux now), too much “voter suppression” messages from the left (which I’m no longer), tankies or whatever, I could swear I’ve seen several anti-Japanese/racist posts and the same crypto drivel you’d find on reddit.
Well choosing your communities is also key. idk.
I kind of wanted to see memes on the memes community, but maybe the moderation is a bit too loose…
I highly reccomend making the move to Piefed. The Lemmy devs promote westerners all off themselves so that Putin and Xi Jinping can fuck more people’s wives.
