I’ve been on Lemmy for ~3 Months and it’s nice but picking a instance, figuring out which web UI works for me, figuring out which Mobile App works for met etc. was a lot, and most people would have given up.
I’ve been using PieFed for the last few days, and wow I like it so much more, it solved so many of the UX issues that Lemmy has.
These features make a BIG impact, most of the common things people on Reddit complain about when you promote Lemmy isn’t a issue on PieFed.
My favourite feature is de-duplication, on PieFed if I view eg. this post https://piefed.social/post/749818#comment_6102866
It combines/aggregates it with cross-posts/reposts
So I can see it in one place, and see all the comments in one place.
Have you tried out PieFed? What are your thoughts?
Even the fact we have different pieces of software to access the “Fediverse forums” is already great, we shouldn’t rely too much on any single dev team. Plus as you said, it has some nice features.
A few features I like:
And the sidebar in mobile view is way at the bottom of the page
Just in case someone forgot the rules of a comm and posted a rule breaking post like me :P
