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

i've said this here before but people like this get a feeling like a rock in the pit of their stomach when they see something that (correctly) questions their worldview. the feeling tells them to look away, and sometimes to make everyone else look away too. they know something is wrong with the way they see things; they know a lot of what they say is flat-out incorrect. but that feeling in their stomach tells them never to dig deeper, never even to look at things they worry might correct their deeply-held beliefs about countries they've never even been to. you either learn to ignore that feeling when you need to like i did, or you spend your life leaving reddit and then trying to turn every place you go back into reddit.
