in different social networks I often see a table of fediverse alternatives to centralized social networks like twitter = mastodon and so on, but I noticed that the alternative to reddit is piefed and not lemmy, can someone explain what kind of fediverse project this is, and is it different from lemmy?π€
I would complete ignore whatever politics of Lemmy or PieFed people try and sway you with. Way too many people on here trying to start drama.
In my experience, Lemmy moves slow but things are very stable. PieFed moves fast adding lots of features that Lemmy is missing, but tends to break things a little more. Both are very useable platforms.
Iβve personally had great interactions with the Lemmy and PieFed devs, and I know they collaborate with each other behind the scenes.
And if youβre unsure, I would just make a PieFed and lemmy account and try both. But the specific PieFed or Lemmy instance you choose might matter just as much as which software you choose.
Yep. Thats what ive seen on both my instances. Piefed has had a lot of new features. Lemmy has had stable dev work.
What kind of features?
Is it mostly mod stuff or is it changing how/what you (can) post?
Some additional features that PieFed has:
A more complete list can be found here:Β https://join.piefed.social/features/
i heard you can have multiple feeds on piefed for example. i can't on lemmy.
As in multi community feeds? That should be coming to Lemmy in v1.

Yep. And you can curate them. For example https://piefed.social/f/fediversevideos
Its a mix of communities, peertube channels, and mastodon accounts attached to videos.
Good summary
Thanks for providing this perspective.
It's good to separate the architectural/system management approaches from the content differences.
