For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target federated instances' admins or moderators.

In fact, it’s even worse: if I’m one of the 10 people they blocked and I post the link (since it still appears that I can from the Lemmy side) then another leftist reading the thread from a Lemmy instance will see the reply and won’t feel the need to post it themselves, but the Piefed users on the other side won’t.

That's not entirely correct as things seem to be right now. It's not a piefed-lemmy divide (yet at least, piefed may start federating blocks, in which case it could be), it's either only the blocking users instance, or all but the blocked user and potentially replied to users instance that can't see the comment.
That might be slightly confusing, so let me give examples:

  • if you are replying to user@piefed.social (who we presume has blocked you or your instance) in a post on community@lemmy.ml, then only piefed.social will be unable to see the comment, but e.g. lemmy.world and piefed.zip will be able to see it.
  • if you are replying to a comment by user@piefed.social in a post on community@piefed.social, then lemmy.world and piefed.zip will not know of your comment as it is piefed.social's job to federate the comment to other instances.
  • if you are replying to a comment by user@lemmy.world in a post by user@piefed.social on community@piefed.social, then lemmy.world might be able to see it, but piefed.zip and all others won't.

In all of these your local instance can of course also see the comment.
