It became the only reliable source of information I had. People posted links with a minimal amount of commentary, picking and choosing the best content from other social media networks. They’re not doing it to “build a brand” because that’s not a thing in the Fediverse. It’s too disjointed to be a place to build a newsletter subscription base.

That’s why I’m advocating for people to switch to piefed and stop donating to the lemmy project which funds .ml.

That’s why

Which is? I’m still missing something here.

I really do not understand all the .ml hate. If you have it so much why are you using their technology (Lemmy)?

[–] notfromhere@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Piefed is a derivative of Lemmy. So you’re not getting away from it.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And Lemmy is a derivative of Reddit so by your logic you haven’t escaped from it.

Lemmy isn’t compatible with Reddit. Piefed is literally implementing Lemmy’s data structures to specifically be compatible with Lemmy.

So since your stated goal is counter to reality, I have to wonder what your real intent is. I only see this drama as weakening Lemmy and Piefed by extension, not strengthening anything.

Right.

Any disagreement must be state sponsored shill bots.

Unfortunately the "attitude" system makes Piefed unusable.

Whats the "attitude" system?

PieFed keeps track of how many upvotes and downvotes you give, displays that on your profile and if you downvote too much it takes away your downvote button. That happened to me after a weekend of use. This is Lemmy. There's a lot here that needs downvoting.

Are you downvoting to disagree or are you downvoting because it’s not contributing to the conversation?

Here is the full explanation :)

The full explanation is the same thing. Your context adds nothing.
