PieFed vs Lemmy. What say you? (lemmy.world)

So, it seems like PieFed is becoming a real alternative to lemmy.

What are the differences between these two? From a tech perspective, and also morality/ethics, if you want. Any differences in vision for these services?

Say whatever is on your mind. I want to know.

On which one should we put our weight?

PieFed all the way. It’s developing at lightning speed, while Lemmy lags behind as the transphobic genocide denying devs beg for donations with in built donation begging banners on all Lemmy instances front pages. Instances are apparently scared to defed from .ml for fear the devs wont support them with help.

Rimu has made some interesting choices, such as blocking 196 from default federating posts until a user subs first or a dislike for meme subs. But when spoken to has been receptive and removed such things or made them optional for admins.

Ethically and feature wise PieFed is in the lead, its not perfect but its open to change and receptive to ideas

pie fedposting has always seemed astroturfed to me whenever i see losers talking about it.

Maybe, or at the very least the people pushing it are not invested in piefed's success, they are invested in lemmy's end.

There are 3 groups that would astroturf to that end: Feds, fascists, dipshit neoliberals that don't realise they're doing the work of fascists, and corporations with a vested interest in seeing decentralised media fail.

That sounds like 4 but i count the fascists and the neoliberal anticommunists together for obvious reasons.

I actually think corporate wreckers are a strong and under-discussed possibility.

I would not be surprised at all if the project was a fed operation.
