Definitely not for me. The UI looks worse than Lemmy, which I already can't get behind.
PieFed has some design principles, including being accessible on lower-end devices and for those with unreliable bandwidth, which mean that it's default UI is never going to look like apps which involve downloading a sizable chunk of Typescript.
I'm okay with its look. Partly because it's themeable, and there's a theme called 'Card Shadow' which looks more modern imo. And partly because Lemmy can feel quite slow showing 20 posts at a time, whereas PieFed throws 100 at a time. And also because there will eventually be an API, allowing people to view it how they want (similar to Lemmy - lemmy-ui is maybe not that great, but there's other frontends which I think are an improvement)
